分析 拥有爱好是感到快乐和结识新朋友的好方法.事实上,有很多爱好对你有好处.
爱好是你为寻求乐趣而做的任何事情.你做这些事情没有报酬.这些事情是你在闲暇时间愿意做的.对于很多人来说,这些天,似乎他们唯一的休闲活动是看电视和上网.这很可惜,因为从攀岩到收集东西等都是一个很好的爱好.
爱好经常提供某些东西,而这些东西在日常生活中是得不到的.它允许你做一些只是为你做的事情,帮助你忘记你的日常烦恼,给你很多的乐趣.如果在你的周围你可以找到志同道合的人,那么外出就是一个结交新朋友并体验新活动的好途径.
如果你在生活中添加一个新的东西,你必须在这件事情上花时间和注意力,而且会远离别的东西.好消息是我们大多数人的很多时间都没有被充分利用,或者是因为我们花了很多时间在网络或电视上,或只是浪费我们可以花在爱好上的时间.
当然每个人都是不同的,你的个性决定了你会拥有什么样的爱好.你可能真的喜欢和朋友一起出去,所以你选择参加需要上课或有有小组活动的事情.如果你喜欢旅行,你可以在任何地方做对别人有帮助的事情.如果你比较宅,你可能会喜欢酷一点的收藏.
事实是,你出门之后可能不会遇到完美的活动,但你可以尝试新的东西并试图从中找到乐趣,并不断在外面找到精彩的东西.做一些网络搜索,访问图书馆,不要害怕尝试新的东西,很快你会有一个能够为你带来快乐并减少压力的爱好.

Watching TV can help your children learn about lots of things,such as music,other countries,and many other things.They will learn about what is good and what is bad.TV also provides children with up-to-date information about the outside world.
However,it's not right to say that watching TV doesn't have any bad effect on children.You can't let them watch TV as much as they want.Watching TV takes a lot of time.Children need to discover the world by themselves,not just from TV.Besides,children are growing and they need to move around and get lots of exercise.Sitting still and watching TV too much will make children become weaker physically.
Most children like to eat snacks while watching TV.That will make them put on weight.To make it worse,there may be too many ads and violent(暴力的)scenes on TV.These things,of course,are bad for children.
As parents,you should control the amount of TV that your children watch.You have to choose the right channels for them,and shouldn't let the TV be on all day.Turn it off right after their programmes end.Encourage them to take part in outdoor activities and do more things.Never put a TV in the bedroom,especially in your children's room!

What is the real meaning of"Hip-pop"?Some people say it is the motion(动作,姿态)that people make while they're(50)dancing.They move their hips(臀部)sideways when they dance.That's very interesting.
The(51)firsthip-pop music came to the world in the beginning of the 1970s by DJs(disk jockeys)A Jamaican(牙买加人)known as Kool Herc was the first person who performed hip-pop music.Whenever people think of hip-pop,music and dance are the first things that come out in their minds.
However,there are other things that are part of the hip-pop culture.One of them is graffiti.Graffiti is modern art where you draw pictures and words on walls,trains,(52)and other places with spray (喷射)paint.Many of you may have seen things around your neighborhood.Some of those works are really terrific!
