  1. I'm interested in sports and my favorite one is playing badminton. I often play it when I feel free from homework. Since I was in the elementary school, this sport has been part of my life. Although I have never been in a professional team, I regard playing badminton as both physical exercise and pleasant enjoyment. Except for what I mention above, I also do some yoga if I plan to keep good shape.
