Imagine you have got a letter from an English-speaking friend who asks you what young people in your country usually do in their spare time.
Write a reply to him/her and
mention:
— what young people in Ukraine are usually interested in;
— if their interests are different from the hobbies of young people of the 20th century;
1) As for me, I don’t get much free time, especially on weekdays. However, at weekends I try to do the activities I like most of all. They are skating, bowling, dancing, swimming, reading, listening to music and going out with my friends. Ice-skating is something that I have taken up recently and I quite enjoy it. Swimming is my all time favourite activity. For bowling and dancing I need a company. Sometimes me and my friends go to the nearest disco and dance there. The ground floor has bowling alleys, so we can combine these two activities.
2)The most noticeable distinguishing feature of the youngest Russians is the active use of the Internet and social networks. The Internet as a source of information overtook television among young people 1.5-2 years ago.Young people have always been criticized by every previous generation, at all times. Lermontov also wrote: "Yes, there were people in our time, not like the current tribe." And this is natural, because it is clear: each new generation is a new, different generation. Therefore, it is not surprising that today's young people have distinctive features. Nevertheless, I think that many young people have the best qualities that are always present in people — patriotism, decency, honesty, purposefulness.

Unfortunately, work is sometimes forgotten, overlooked. Yes, to achieve something, you need to work very hard. One of the strengths of today's young people, I think, is that they are less complex than the previous generation, more creative, bold in making decisions.
