Text: Leisure time

Leisure time
Sally – I wish it were Saturday so I could go climbing again.
Michael – Do you climb?
Sally – Yes, quite often. I love this sport although it is often very dangerous. I do it quite well. Have you ever climbed?
Michael – No, never. I've always thought it is too dangerous for me. And I don't know how to use a harness, an ice axe or a karabiner. Do you know Steven? He's a good climber and he has often been badly injured.
Sally – I think that if you are properly belayed and your harness is well adjusted, you will not fall down. But people usually climb without having much knowledge of the importance of security. And how do you spend your leisure time? Do you take your rod and fishhook and go fishing?
Michael– I've never gone fishing. I always try to do sport in my leisure time.
Sally – What kind of sport? Maybe trekking?
Michael – No, I hang glide.
Sally – How can you say that climbing is dangerous? Hang gliding is much more dangerous.
