My share of work.

• I have studied some articles on the subject.

• Moreover, I have conducted a survey among the representatives of my age-group and compared how people spend their leisure time in Russia and Great Britain, using the computer program "survio".

• I have analyzed the results of my research.

• Also I have drawn a conclusion about the reasons for leisure activities in different countries in the interactive way.

What is leisure?

Leisure is a period of time spent out of work and domestic activity, when you can forget about day-to-day stress and stressful activities and relax.

Watching TV is by far the most popular leisure activity in Great Britain, but British also read more newspapers and books.

Almost half of all families in the UK eat together only once a month or less, because they prefer "ready meal" and takeaways to home-cooked food.

In the UK, pensioners are almost twice as active as teenagers. People over sixty-five spend nearly two hours a day doing physical activities.

The average British employee spends fifty-five minutes chatting, sixteen minutes flirting, fourteen minutes surfing the Internet and nine minutes sending e-mails to friends!

People in Britain listen to an average 15 hours and 50 minutes of radio each week.

Only 23 % of people in Russia prefer watching TV to surfing the Internet.

The vast majority of Russian pupils spend more than 3 hours a day doing their homework, while British children spend only half an hour.

60 % of Russian people eat together every day, 30 percent eat together once or twice a week, and only 10 percent have supper with their families once a month or less.

81 % of people in Russia, read books and newspapers, like in Great Britain.
