I have   35   friends, and we always play football together at school or in the park after school. We like staying out late to play football. We often play for three hours or more and forget when to stop. Then I   36    trouble at home because my parents do not allow me to play outside after 6 p.m. I really do not understand why they are so strict. I feel stressed and angry      37   . I believe it is important for us to spend some time on our hobbies. They can help us relax and make our lives    38   .I wish I could have my parents’   39   .

Best wishes

Simon

【解析】【主旨大意】本文是一名中学生，在他的爱好和学生生活之间出现矛盾时，向别人寻求帮助的信件。

1.考查词组be crazy about“对…感到疯狂”。

2.watching “观看比赛”；seeing “看电影”；looking at“看着”；looking不及物东西，不能直接加宾语。本句为看足球比赛，故选A。

3.dream作主语，系动词用is，be to do，“将要做某事”。

4.由文章的倒数第三句“Can you please advise me how to achieve a balance between my schoolwork and my hobbies?”可知作者是为了寻求一些建议。

5.根据下句可知我有很多的朋友。plenty of“许多大量的”。

6.考查词组get into trouble “陷入困境”。  

7.考查词组from time to time “不时的；时时的”。

8.句意为：它（足球）能够使我们放松，使生活更有趣。应使用比较级形式。interesting用来形容物。

9.support，做名词，意为“支持；拥护”，不可数。

10.句意为：我确实不知道做什么。
