A hobby is an inverstment of time. It also can be an investment of money and commitment. Many people choose to developing more than one type of hobby. When it comes to choosing the hobby, consider the following factors.
Hobbies are usually an activity of some sort that brings out a certain skill that you have. When you have a talent like painting or woodworking, it can be easy to determine which hobby suits your skill. Skill can be developed and challenged as you go along. It is not a necessary requirement. A hobby is fitting because you love it, not because you're a professional at it.
Some people particularly enjoy taking part in hobbies that they can do in a group with others. It can be a lot more fun to become a member of a hobby group than to sit alone in your basement. It's important to share interests and network with other hobby enthusiasts that do what you do.
Hobbies are generally an activity that you undertake because of the joy it brings you. Of course many people have discovered the joy that also comes with a hobby that earns you a living. Just make sure you make the choice that fits your lifestyle and personal preference.
But most of the skilled hobbies like art, building or writing have a series of lessons or tutorials that you can take to further your skills. In some cases it's a really good idea to take lessons, especially if you are clueless as to where or how to begin. Step by step books for most hobbies can often be found in bookstores as well.
A. However, hobbies don't have to be skill related.
B. Most hobbies can easily be done within your own home, at your leisure.
C. Look one up or start your own.
D. Read hobby books to learn more about your chosen hobby!
E. Make a list of things that you enjoy or don't know about.
F. It can be a necessary part of selecting the hobby that is right for you.
G. Whether it's full time, part time or not at all, you must decide whether your hobby applies to you
【答案】F;A;C;G;B
【解析】本文是一篇议论文,论述了培养爱好的重要性。
(1)考查对上下文语境的理解。根据下文“When it comes to choosing the hobby...”可知,空白处说的是“选择适合自己的爱好”,F项“选择适合自己的爱好很有必要”符合情境,故选F。
(2)考查对上下文语境的理解。根据下文“Skill can be developed and challenged as you go along. It is not a necessary requirement.”可知,技能不是培养爱好时所必需的,它是可以在发展爱好的过程中慢慢培养的。A项“然而,爱好不一定与技能有关”符合情境,故选A。
(3)考查对上下文语境的理解。项中的one指代的前面提到的“a hobby group”,加入兴趣团体比单独一人的时候获得的乐趣要多得多。C项“寻找一个兴趣团体或自己创建一个”符合情境,故选C。
(4)考查对上下文语境的理解。根据上文“...a hobby that earns you a living“以及下文”Just make sure you make the choice that fits your lifestyle and personal preference.”可知,有的人以爱好谋生。要确保作出的选择适合自己的生活方式和个人偏好。G项“无论是全职还是兼职或者两者都不是,你必须要注意自己的爱好是否适用于自己”符合情境,故选G。
(5)考查对上下文语境的理解。根据下文“But most of the skilled hobbies like art, building or writing have a series of lessons or tutorials that you can take to further your skills.”可知,前后句表示转折,空白处后面的意思是“但是大部分需要技能的爱好,像艺术、建筑、写作等有一系列的课程或教程可以帮助提高你的技能。”与B项“大部分的爱好可以在家完成”形成对比,故选B。
