How does the world spend its free time? Let’s have a look.
Internet
People from Canada spend a lot of hours online every week, much longer than Americans. Canada has long cold winters so people spend lots of time at home.
Outdoors(户外)
People from New Zealand(新西兰)spend most of their free time outdoors. The countryside is great for mountain climbing and water sports.
Bars(酒吧)
Spain(西班牙)has a lot of bars. In Spain, a bar is for families, not just drinkers. It’s a meeting place and often an eating place. When none of your family or friends are available, you can still go to a bar by yourself. People around you in the bar may ask you to join them.
Museums
The UK has six of the top 20 most visited museums in the world, such as the National Gallery, the British Museum and Tate Modern.
Parties
As for parties, most people will think of Brazil(巴西). Its carnival(狂欢节)is famous all around the world. Bangkok(曼谷)and Berlin(柏林)are two of the best cities for partying. In Bangkok, you can meet friendly people. In Berlin, you can enjoy beautiful music on the streets.
Exercising
In Greece(希腊)and Estonia(爱沙尼亚), over 80 percent of people exercise every day. The Olympic sports are very popular in these two countries, but Estonia has a very special game: ice cricket(冰上板球)!
