UNIT 5
Do you think it is true that men waste more time than women, or that young people waste more time than old people? Why/Why not?
I think that men waste more time than women because they use to spend a lot of time watching succer matches and watching sports (racing cars, playing tennis, etc…). Many of them also like taking a nap for more than two hours at the weekend and that it’s a waste of time, too. Men don’t usually do the shopping or take the kids to the park. Furthermore, they do little housework. I think that they should waste less time and do more. In fact, I would like to see more men looking after the children at the park, taking their kids to school or doing the shopping.
On the other hand, young people waste a lot of time playing or chatting on their computers. They either play computer games or spend a lot of time on social networks as facebook or twitter. At the weekend, a lot of young people aged 18 and over, go out and get home late at night, almost in the morning. Then, they spend the whole Saturday or Sunday morning sleeping. In my opinión, many girls also waste a lot of time talking on the phone or making up and getting dressed to go out, that’s specially truth for ladies.3
