It’s a great form of exercise. Interview 2 Adam: How do you spend your free time, Helen? Helen: Well, I love painting pictures. Adam: How did you get into it?

Adam: And is it easier now? Chen Jie: It’s never easy, but it’s more fun now. I do it to relax these days. 访谈 1 Adam: 嘿 Teng Fei！我正在做一个关于休闲活动的调查。你能帮忙吗？ Teng Fei: 嗨 Adam。当然！问吧。 Adam: 你空闲时通常做什么？ Teng Fei: 嗯。我喜欢编程。我放学后会做这个。 Adam: 哦，你是在开发一个应用吗？ Teng Fei: 没错。我还喜欢周末去徒步。这是一种很好的锻炼方式。 访谈 2 Adam: Helen，你空闲时间怎么度过？ Helen: 嗯，我喜欢画画。 Adam: 你是怎么喜欢上画画的？ Helen: 哦，我小时候看到我妈妈画画。我也决定试一试！画画能帮我表达我的感受。 Adam: 明白了！ 访谈 3 Adam: Chen Jie，你空闲时间做什么？你运动吗？ Chen Jie: 不，不怎么运动。但我喜欢吹笛子。 Adam: 哇！那不是很困难吗？ Chen Jie: 一开始确实很难。我需要大量练习！ Adam: 那现在变简单了吗？ Chen Jie: 从来都不简单，但现在更有趣了。这些日子我吹笛子是为了放松。 Section A, 2b and 2c Fu Xing: Hi Emma, how was your weekend? Emma: It was OK, but now I hurt all over! Fu Xing: How come? Emma: I went to the sports centre to try ice skating. People looked so beautiful doing it! But I didn’t expect to fall so many times! Fu Xing: Oh dear! Emma: I don’t want to go ice skating again. Fu Xing: Why? Nobody expects you to be perfect from the start. Emma: My instructor said that too. She also encouraged me to get back up whenever I fell. She told me not to give up so easily. Fu Xing: Everything’s difficult before it’s easy. Like swimming. I love it now, but I used to be scared of water. Emma: Really? Fu Xing: Yes. I started swimming to get over my fear. Slowly, I became more confident. I have fun being in the water now! Emma: You’re right. I’ll try ice skating again! Fu Xing: 嘿Emma，周末过得怎么样？ Emma: 还行，但现在我浑身都疼！ Fu Xing: 怎么回事？ Emma: 我去体育中心尝试滑冰了。大家滑起来真好看！但我没想到会摔这么多次！ Fu Xing: 哎呀！ Emma: 我再也不想去滑冰了。 Fu Xing: 为什么？没人指望你一开始就完美。 Emma: 我的教练也这么说。她还鼓励我每次摔倒都要爬起来，告诉我别轻易放弃。 Fu Xing: 万事开头难。就像游泳，我现在很喜欢，但以前很怕水。 Emma: 真的吗？ Fu Xing: 是啊。我开始游泳是为了克服恐惧。慢慢我越来越自信，现在觉得待在水里很有趣！ Emma: 你说得对。我会再试试滑冰的！ Section B Hobbies That Are Good for You 　　When work or school is over, what do you do to pass the time? Do you spend time on hobbies you love? Reading or listening to music can help us to calm down after a busy day. Physical hobbies, such as playing tennis or doing yoga, can help us to keep fit. And some hobbies are creative. For example, people sometimes paint pictures to remember a beautiful landscape or object, or reduce stress. 　　Luca Bruno likes to be creative in his free time. But he doesn’t make art or write stories. Instead, this Italian teenager finds it fun to make mobile phone apps. He thinks that apps can be a great way to help people. He started programming when he was ten, after he read about famous businessmen who started out as programmers. His latest app allows people around the world to find study partners for learning Italian. They can learn Italian and make friends at the same time! 　　“It gives me such a sense of achievement to see people using the app,” says Luca. “I believe I’m helping people around the world to learn Italian!” 　　Some people prefer not to make things. They prefer to collect them! In India, Maya Badal doesn’t collect coins or stamps. Instead, this teenage girl collects postcards! 　　“I know some people think postcards are rather old-fashioned, but I think they’re a good way to learn about different places,” Maya says. “I think it’s interesting to see the beautiful buildings and landscapes in foreign countries.” 　　Maya’s first postcard shows the Mogao Caves in Dunhuang. Her dad sent it to her when she was five, and she liked it so much that she put it up on her bedroom wall! Now there are over one hundred postcards from thirty-two countries on Maya’s walls. She dreams of travelling to these places in the future! 有益身心的爱好 　　当工作或学业结束后，你会如何消磨时间？是否会花时间在自己热爱的爱好上？阅读或听音乐能帮助我们在忙碌一天后平复心情。运动类爱好，比如打网球或练瑜伽，有助于我们保持健康。还有些爱好富有创造性，例如，人们有时会画画来记录美丽的风景或物品，或者缓解压力。 　　卢卡·布鲁诺喜欢在闲暇时发挥创造力。但他并不创作艺术品或写故事。这位意大利少年觉得制作手机应用很有趣。他认为应用程序是帮助他人的绝佳方式。十岁时，卢卡在读到一些从程序员起步的著名企业家故事后，开始学习编程。他最新的应用程序能让世界各地的人找到学习意大利语的学伴。他们既能学习意大利语，又能同时结交朋友！ 　　“看到人们使用这个应用让我很有成就感，”卢卡说。“我相信我正在帮助全世界的人学习意大利语！” 　　有些人更喜欢收集物品而非创作。在印度，玛雅·巴达尔不收集硬币或邮票，而是收集明信片！ 　　“我知道有些人觉得明信片很老派，但我认为这是了解不同地方的好方式，”玛雅说。“欣赏外国美丽的建筑和风景，我觉得很有趣。” 　　玛雅的第一张明信片是敦煌莫高窟。那是她五岁时爸爸寄给她的，她非常喜欢，把它贴在了卧室墙上！现在玛雅的墙上已经贴满了来自三十二个国家的一百多张明信片。她梦想着将来能去这些地方旅行！ Reading Plus Work Hard, Play Hard 　　It can be hard to make time for a hobby when we have many important things to do. But hobbies might be more important than you think. 　　Physical hobbies like going hiking or playing tennis can help you to stay healthy. They keep you fit, and they can even lower stress and improve your memory and concentration. Other types of hobbies can also keep us healthy. Some scientists believe that making music can lower our blood pressure and make our body stronger. This makes it harder for us to fall sick. Playing an instrument also keeps our brains young. So, if you think that playing the guitar is a waste of time, remember that this hobby is actually a great way to stay healthy! 　　Hobbies are also good for your emotional well-being. Creative hobbies like painting or writing can help you deal with negative emotions by giving you a way to express how you feel. They can even make you feel good about yourself! In one study, after just 45 minutes of making art, most of the participants reported feeling more confident in themselves! 　　However, while hobbies have many benefits, it is important to find the right balance. Playing computer games or chatting online may be fun, but such hobbies usually involve a lot of screen time. That could cause problems such as eye strain or poor sleep. These activities are also usually done alone, and that could cause some people to feel lonely. Why not choose an outdoor hobby instead? Fresh air, green spaces, peace and quiet—these things help us to relax and feel good. And if you go hiking or fly a kite in the park, you can take a friend with you! Hanging out with friends reduces loneliness and can be a good way to build relationships. 　　Regardless of what your hobby is, it is important to make time for it. After all, all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy! 努力工作，尽情玩耍 　　当有很多重要事情要做时，可能很难腾出时间培养爱好。但爱好的重要性或许超出你的想象。 　　像徒步旅行或打网球这样的体育活动有助于保持健康，不仅能强健体魄，还能缓解压力、提升记忆力和专注力。其他类型的爱好也对健康有益。一些科学家认为，演奏音乐可以降低血压、增强体质，从而提升免疫力。演奏乐器还能延缓大脑衰老。所以，如果你觉得弹吉他是在浪费时间，请记住这其实是一种非常有益健康的爱好！ 　　爱好对情绪健康也大有裨益。绘画或写作等创造性爱好为情绪表达提供了出口，有助于化解负面情绪，甚至能提升自信。一项研究表明，仅仅进行45分钟的艺术创作后，大多数参与者都表示自信心有所增强。 　　然而，尽管爱好益处良多，但保持适度至关重要。玩电脑游戏或在线聊天或许有趣，但这类爱好通常需要长时间盯着屏幕，可能导致眼疲劳或睡眠不佳。这些活动往往也是独自进行的，容易让人感到孤独。何不选择一项户外爱好呢？新鲜的空气、绿色的空间、宁静的环境——这些都有助于我们放松身心、感受愉悦。而且，如果你去徒步或在公园放风筝，还可以带上朋友一起！与朋友共度时光既能减少孤独感，也是增进感情的好方法。 　　无论你的爱好是什么，都要记得为它留出时间。毕竟，只工作不玩耍，聪明孩子也变傻！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
