  A hobby can be almost anything a person likes to do in his spare time.Hobbyists raise pets, build mode ships, weave baskets, watch birds, hunt animals, climb mountains, raise flowers, fish, ski, skate, and swim.Hobbyists also paint pictures, attend concerts and plays, and perform on musical instruments.They collect everything from books to butterflies, and from shells to stamps.

  People take up hobbies because these activities offer enjoyment, friendship, knowledge and relaxation.Sometimes they even yield financial profit.Hobbies help people relax after periods of 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 a satisfying hobby, regardless of his age, position, or income.

  Hobbies can help a person’s mental and physical health.Doctors have found that hobbies are valuable in helping patients recover from physical or mental illness.Hobbies give bedridden or wheel-chair patients something to do, and provide interests that keep them from thinking about themselves.Many hospitals treat patients by having them take up interesting hobbies or pastimes.

  In early times, most people were too busy making a living to have many hobbies.But some persons who had leisure did enjoy hobbies.The ancient Egyptians played games with balls made of wood or pottery.

  People today have more time than ever before for hobbies.Machines have reduced the amount of time they must spend on their jobs.Hobbies provide variety for workers who do the same monotonous(单调的)tasks all day long.More people are retiring than ever before, and at an earlier age.Those who have developed hobbies never need to worry about what to do with their newly-found leisure hours.

  Sir William Osler, a famous Canadian doctor, expressed the value of hobbies by saying “No man is really happy or safe without a hobby.”

Dear Flowermouse,?

Thank you for your comments on how Americans and Chinese view each other. This is an important subject. Modern technology has given many nations the chance of destroying other nations. This is a cruel picture but it is a realistic one. It means that every nation should make sure that these weapons of great destruction are never used. This requires greater acceptance of differences among people and nations in all parts of the planet.?

Your letter asks specially about Chinese-American relationships but I want to let you know my feelings on a global scale. Because China and America are the most powerful nations and I believe they have a special responsibility for promoting better understanding and for leading the way toward peaceful solutions to the world's problems.

You ask how Chinese and American people view each other. This is an important question. Because I know so little about China that I am not able to judge how Chinese view Americans. I am sure that the view differs according to individual experiences that persons might have. And it is not easy to describe America to foreigners. America is a vast mass of people and cultures. These people came from all parts of the world, from Asia, Africa, Latin America, Europe and Australia. Each brought a different culture and a different set of values within a single nation.

  I believe that the vast majority of Americans like the vast majority of Chinese want peace and friendship between our two nations. Both China and America have suffered through generations from war and violence in our history. And I believe that it is the special responsibility of all Chinese and all Americans to impress this need for mutual understanding on our neighbors in other.?

So my friend, this is my response. Please know that I write to you as a private person living in America. I do feel strongly that people everywhere have more in common than they have in differences. We all share the same basic needs for existence and we all depend upon the same need for the survival of this beautiful planet earth. Maybe we can begin to encourage better communication and better understanding through my columns. I hope so.?

From the passage we can know that Flowermouse_______.?

A. loves Americans

B. has read about the writer's articles?

C. is an American

D. knows little about Americans?

It is likely that the writer_______.?

A. disagrees with Flowermouse?

B. thinks it possible for nations to be destroyed due to modern technology?

C. thinks American government share the same opinions with its people?

D. believes the weapons of great destruction are never used?

The letter that Flowermouse wrote to the writer, maybe have referred to .?

A. American culture     

B. American society?

C. Chinese-American relationships

D. Chinese society?

The writer's purpose to write the passage is to_______.?

A. introduce Americans to us

B. make friends with Flowermouse?

D. call on nations to understand each other??
