完形填空。
From Monday to Friday most people are busy working or studying, but in the evenings and at weekends they are free and _ themselves. Some watch television or go to the movies, others __ sports. This is decided by their own _ .
There are many different ways to spend our ___ time.
Almost everyone has some kind of __ : it may be something from collecting stamps to___ model planes. Some hobbies are very __ , but others don’t cost anything at all. Some collections are worth _ of money; others are valuable only to their owners.
I know a man who has a coin collection worth several _ dollars. A short time ago he bought a rare fifty-cent piece which _ him ＄250! He was very happy about this collection and thought the price was all right. On the other hand, my youngest brother collects match boxes. He has almost 600 of them, but I wonder if they are worth any money. However, to my brother they are quite valuable. Nothing makes him happier than to find a new match box for his collection.
That’s what a hobby means, I think. It is something we like to do in our free time just for the fun of it. The value in dollars is not important, but the pleasure it gives us is.
