The line graph illustrates different types of activities in free time by elderly from the United States during the period 1980 to 2010. Overall, it can be seen that time consumption for these leisure activities have increased over time except going to theatre and is measured in percentages. To begin, most recreational activities have increased gradually from 1980s to 1990s. Among these, there was a significant rise in the number of hiking to 2% per year. Similarly, the rate of reading has increased gradually by 10% over the ten years, which was followed by a sudden fall to 20% in 2000s and again sharp rise to 60% in 2010s. Next, the elderly spent less on surfing the internet between 1980s and 2000s, but then it grew rapidly for the remainder of the period. In contrast, the number of percentages of going to theatre has declined considerably during the period 1980s and 2000s by 20% followed by a steady rise to 45% in 2010. Nonetheless, watching TV is standing as the second most popular entertainment among elderly despite a slight fall in 2010 by 5%.
