    Exercise 3
    The am ount of leisure time available to people has 
    been increasing since the early twentieth century 
    when m achines started to be invented to do many 
    labour intensive ta sks both at w ork and in the home. 
    Previously, people were spending many more hours 
    doing basic menial ta sks and as a result had less 
    time available for hobbies and activities. Although 
    recently many people have been complaining about 
    their work life balance, studies show that the amount 
    of free time we have has been rising continuously 
    for over 50 years. More people are playing sport on a 
    regular basis nowadays and young people are taking up 
    traditional style hobbies such as knitting and walking 
    in the countryside. There has also been a large amount 
    of government investment in leisure facilities in local 
    communities, which has assisted the uptake of hobbies 
    for a range of people including children and the elderly. 
    A few years ago, visitors to a local park would see 
    people who were playing football or walking their dog. 
    However, nowadays people are using the gym or a 
    climbing wall as their way of sporting recreation.

    This graph show s the kinds of activities done by old people 
    in their spare time, covering a period from the 1980s to 
    now in Europe. We can see that generally the activities 
    listed have been increasing in popularity amongst the 
    elderly, with hiking increasing steadily throughout the 
    years, and playing sport being the most popular overall.
    In the 1980s, nearly all activities were growing in 
    popularity. The only activity which w as becoming less 
    popular over these years w as going to the theatre.
    Going to the theatre declined steeply from 5 0 % to 30%.
    This changed in the 1990s, and going to the theatre 
    became more popular, w hereas reading saw a 
    dramatic drop in popularity. The num ber of people 
    doing all other activities increased.
    This century, hiking, reading, going to the theatre 
    and surfing the Internet have all been increasing in 
    popularity. However, playing sport has been decreasing 
    in popularity. Despite this, playing sport is still the second 
    most popular activity nowadays am ongst this group. Most 
    elderly people are hiking nowadays in their spare time.

    Exercise 3
    Making money out of other people's fame is a highly 
    specialized skill, but one that can bring great rewards 
    to those who practise it proficiently. Marianne Beretoli 
    is one of those people; she owns a company which 
    sells information about celebrities to other celebrities 
    as a kind of careers advice service. Although she was 
    born in France, she used to dream of moving to the 
    USA, specifically Hollywood. Whilst studying business 
    at university Beretoli was known for her innovative 
    approach to applying theory to practice and she would 
    te often challenge the ideas of her tutors. When she 
    had graduated, Beretoli worked in Paris and tried 
    unsuccessfully to set up her own marketing agency. 
    Then she decided to move to the U SA and within months 
    realised that she had boon making made the right 
    decision. She moved from Paris to Los Angeles in 1995 
    and after she had been working as an assistant for an 
    advertising agency for a few years, she had set up her 
    own company providing information services to the rich 
    and famous.
