Questions 1 to 4 are based on a talk by a speaker about his hobbies.

W: Well, Mr. Smith, we have had an interesting discussion about your work. Now, tell us something about your after work activities.

M: I guess not much different from everyone else. Im interested in sport, and I run about 3 miles every day. I particularly enjoy cross-country running, where you have to run across fields, jump over streams and so on. While Im running I think about all sorts of things, and at the end of a run Im sometimes surprised to find that Ive managed to solve a problem that was on my mind.

Next year Im going to try the London Marathon. Its a long, hard race-26 miles, or 42 kilometers-and you have to be tough to finish, but I very much want to do it. I worry a bit about getting old, and Id like to prove to myself that Im still almost as fit as I was twenty years ago.

I m interested in climbing as well as running. Ill never become an expert climber, but I know what Im doing in the mountains. I successfully completed a course in snow and ice climbing when I was younger, and Ive done a series of easy climbs in the Alps during the last few years. My wife doesnt share my interest in Mountains. She agreed to go climbing with me once, but she found that she felt ill as soon as she got above 1,000 meters, so we decide to follow different hobbies.

W: You certainly seem to enjoy various types of recreation. All right, Mr. Smith. Thanks for your interesting talk.
