Tiếng Anh lớp 8 · Chủ điểm 1: Unit 1: Leisure time

Read the passage. Mai: What are you preparing for our class discussion about leisure time?
Nam: I have a short report. Here is my main idea.

I enjoy making small models in my leisure time. I usually work with recycled cardboard on Saturday afternoons. First, I draw a simple plan. Then I cut and join the pieces. This hobby helps me become more patient because the first attempt is not always successful. I prefer making things with a friend, so we can exchange ideas. I still use my phone, but I stop when it is time for dinner. A balanced timetable makes my free time more enjoyable.

Mai: Can you give a reason for your opinion?
Nam: Yes. We should consider both benefits and difficulties.

What is Nam preparing? Answer with a word or short phrase, not a full sentence.
