Listening transcript:
My favourite hobby is reading. I enjoy reading a book when I have time. I started to do it
when I was four years old. The first time I did it, I felt interested. So I kept reading. The teachers
always taught me to read the difficult words. I was happy when I read a story with a happy
ending. I was thrilled when I read a detective story. I enjoy reading because I like to explore the
imaginative world of my favourite author, J.K.Rowling who writes “Harry Potter”.
There are a lot of advantages of reading. Reading can make me relaxed and calm. I can also
learn new vocabulary items. Then I can further improve my English. Moreover, it can give me an
unlimited imagination, so I can write books in the future. I can learn the different cultures of
other countries in the world too. I read at least one hour every day. I read books by myself at
home. I wish I could read different kinds of books because it might be very challenging.

vibrantly with every passing day, not only do they bring positive results from specific volunteer
programs but they also conduce to generate and raise awareness for a large number of people in

have collected all my old books and encourage my friends to donate their books in order that I
can send them to the unlucky children.
