Passage 2 What do young people like to do in their free time？If you think they are all playing video games or watching short videos on their phones，you might be wrong.In 2026，many young people are turning to something quite different — "grandma hobbies." "Grandma hobbies" is a fun name for traditional activities like needlepoint （刺绣） and gardening.These are things that people's grandmothers used to enjoy.But now，Gen Z （people born after 1997）are falling in love with them. Emma MacTaggart，26，is a good example.She used to work long hours in banking.After work，she would just look through her phone for hours — a habit called "getting lost in her phone." To change this，she and her roommates decided to try needlepoint.Soon，they became "fully obsessed （着迷的）." Emma said it was so relaxing that they spent almost all their free time making needlepoint works instead of looking at a screen. These old hobbies help young people reduce stress and feel relaxed.When they finish a gift or a dish，they feel proud and successful.Social media helps them become more popular.Young people share their works online and make friends.Some even turn their hobbies into businesses.Take Anna Weare，a 31﹣year﹣old blacksmith （铁匠） as an example — people now wait a year for her handmade products.

At the museum, Deng saw old photos and trophies (奖杯), and read stories about famous Go players. “Before, I didn’t care much about winning or losing. After the visit, I realized I wanted to achieve something meaningful,” he said. Noticing Deng’s interest, the museum guide advised him to learn Go more seriously at the Putuo Chess Academy*. Since then, Go has become Deng’s love. He visits the academy often to improve his skills, making rapid progress along the way.
