A hobby can be almost anything a person likes to do in his free time. Hobbyists keep pets,
build model shops, watch birds, hunt animals, climb mountains, grow flowers, fish, ski, skate or swim. Hobbyists also paint pictures, attend concerts and play the instruments. They collect
everything from books to butterflies and from shells to stamps.
People have hobbies because these activities offer enjoyment, friendship, knowledge and relaxation. Sometimes they even make some money by following a hobby. Hobbies help people relax after hard work, and provide a balance between work and play. Hobbies also offer interesting activities for persons who have retired. Anyone, rich or poor, old or young, sick or well, can follow an interesting hobby.
Hobbies can help a person's mental(脑力的) and physical health. Doctors have found that
hobbies are valuable in helping patients recover from physical or mental illness. Hobbies give
patients something to do, and provide interests that keep them from thinking about themselves. Many hospitals treat patients by having them have interesting hohbies or pastimes(消遣).
In early times, most people were too busy making a living to have many hobbies. But some
persons who were free enjoyed hobbies. The old Egyptians played games with balls made of wood or pottery(陶器).
People today have more time for hobbies than ever before because machines can do a lot of work for people. More people retire(退休) at an earlier age than before. Those who have developed hobbies never need to worry about what to do with their newly found free hours.

We each have a memory. That's why we can remember things after a long time. Some
people have a very good memory and they can easily learn many things by heart, but some
people can only remember things when they say or do them again and again.
A good memory helps one learn a language well. Everybody learns his own language
when he is a small child. He hears the sounds, remembers them and then he learns to
speak. Some children are living with their parents in foreign countries. They can learn two
languages easily because they hear, remember and speak the two languages every day. In
school it is not easy to learn a foreign language because the students have little time for it
and they have to learn other subjects,too.
Our memory can get better and better if we do more and more exercises. Do you want to
learn a foreign language well? If so, you must do a lot of listening and speaking.
Fill in the blanks according to the passage. Only one word for each blank.
We can remember things after a long time (71) we each have a memory.
A man with a (72) memory can't easily learn many things by heart. If a child often
hears, remembers and (73) two languages every day, he or she can learn these

language well because they have little time for it and they have to learn other subjects, too. So, if you want to learn a foreign language well, you must (75) listening and speaking every day.
