Ⅳ.七选五
Most people have developed some hobbies at a point in their lives, such as doing sports, playing an instrument, painting, cooking and something else. There are many reasons and skills for taking up a hobby.
Realize you have more time than you think.
This is probably the first thing that keeps most people away from developing a hobby. __1__ But we waste so much time on social media and television commercials and then worry about the life in which we have no time to develop a hobby. Spare some time for a hobby in your day. Plan ahead and just do it.
Involve other people.

Put your money where your mouth is.
__3__ So give out a bit of your budget to the hobby you choose so that you cannot blame a lack of “materials” for not doing anything.
__4__
For me, this has been the most important step to stick to a hobby. If you jog, decide which race you want to enter this year. If you practice music, organize a concert.
Find the pleasure in what you do.
As with most things, the starting of getting something ready to start can be difficult. But don't give up. __5__

C．Think of a hobby that might interest you.
D．Others' help will definitely do you good.
E．You don't think that you have enough time to start it.
F．The fact is that people put money where their heart is.
G．Once you have started, you'll find the beauty and relaxation.
这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了培养业余爱好的原因和技巧。
1．E 解析：根据下文But we waste so much time on social media and television commercials and then worry about the life in which we have no time to develop a hobby.(但是我们在社交媒体和电视广告上浪费了太多的时间，然后担心在生活中我们没有时间发展爱好)可知本句为说明有些人认为自己没有足够的时间，但是实际上我们在社交媒体上浪费了太多的时间。故E选项“你认为你没有足够的时间开始”符合语境。故选E。
2．A 解析：根据上文Therefore, get someone jog with you, make music with you, or share recipes with you. Meanwhile, you will inspire them to stick to their hobby.(因此，找个人和你一起慢跑，一起做音乐，或者一起分享食谱。同时，你会激励他们坚持自己的爱好)从两方面分析这是一个双赢的局面，故A选项“这是一个双赢的局面”符合语境。故选A。
3．F 解析：根据下文So give out a bit of your budget to the hobby you choose so that you cannot blame a lack of “materials” for not doing anything.(所以，把你一部分预算花在你选择的爱好上，这样你就不会因为任何事都没有做而责怪缺乏“物质”)可知此处是强调可以把钱花在自己感兴趣的爱好上，故F选项“事实上，人们花钱的地方就是他们的兴趣所在”符合语境。故选F。
4．B 解析：根据下文For me, this has been the most important step to stick to a hobby. If you jog, decide which race you want to enter this year. If you practice music, organize a concert.(对我来说，这是坚持一个爱好最重要的一步。如果你跑步，决定今年你想参加哪项比赛。如果你练习音乐，组织一场音乐会)可知是在说明要想坚持一项爱好，你就必须为之付出努力，做一些实际的事情。故B选项“
朝着某些东西努力”符合语境。故选B。
5．G 解析：根据上文As with most things, the starting of getting something ready to start can be difficult. But don't give up. (和大多数事情一样，开始做一些准备开始的事情是很困难的。但是不要放弃)可知，本句承接上文，继续说明坚持的好处和结果。故G选项“一旦你开始，你就会发现它的美丽和放松”符合语境。故选G。

Dear Mr Hall，
Knowing that you have a keen interest in Chinese traditional festivals, I'm writing sincerely to invite you to spend the Spring Festival with my family.
The Spring Festival, which is traditionally a time for family reunion, comes on January 25th this year. Generally, the whole family will get together to have a feast, so my family is no exception. My grandparents, my parents and my brother will celebrate the festival together with us, during which time, lots of activities will be well prepared, such as making dumplings and setting off fireworks. We'll also play card games and watch the Spring Festival Gala on TV.
It would be a great pleasure if you could come and have fun with us. We are expecting your arrival with sincerity. If you'd like to participate, please let me know at your earliest convenience.
Yours sincerely，
Li Hua
