Here are the completed texts with the words from the box:
Galina:
I really like chatting time online and listening to other
people on my phone and laptop. I also love singing to music
online. I live on the internet!
Tanya:
My favourite hobby is collecting things from
plastic, wood and paper. I'm learning making too,
so I usually take pictures of them
when I've finished them.
Guillermo:
Cooking is my
favourite thing to do when
I'm not in school. I love going shopping
for food that I haven't used
before, then making something
amazing with it.
Pilar:
I love playing computer games and
watching TV. I like reading books
too. I go to the library
every week.
Nala:
In my free time I enjoy playing musical
instruments. I'm quite good
at the piano and the drums.
I also like acting instruments – I've got about 30
different ones already!
Lev:
I go to a theatre group every
Saturday morning and we
do three things which I
love: acting in
plays, singing songs and dancing. I like going out with
my friends from the group
too - they're great fun.
Explanation for a student:
In this exercise, we needed to choose the words from the box that best fit the context of each person's description of their hobbies.
* Galina: She spends time online chatting and listening to people. Since she also loves music, "singing" fits well.
* Tanya: She collects things and is learning to make things, so "collecting" and "making" are the best choices.
* Guillermo: He enjoys cooking and going to the store for ingredients, so "cooking" and "going shopping" make sense.
* Pilar: She plays computer games, watches TV, and likes reading books, so "playing", "watching", and "reading" are appropriate.
* Nala: She likes playing musical instruments and acting, so "playing" and "acting" fit the description.
* Lev: He attends theatre groups and enjoys acting in plays, singing songs, and dancing. He also likes going out with his friends, so "acting", "singing", and "going out" are appropriate.
