C[2025 河南郑州月考]
Do you have a long list of hobbies that light you up but find it hard to balance (平衡) them all? You're not alone! The real challenge isn't having too many hobbies, but how you manage them. In this passage, we'll share how to enjoy all your hobbies without tiring yourself.
Focus on what you enjoy now. It's not easy to follow every hobby at the same time. The key is to focus on the hobbies that can bring you the most energy right now. For example, this month you're excited about photography, but next month, you might want to try cooking. By switching hobbies based on what excites you, you'll stay interested and avoid feeling tired.
Set a flexible schedule (灵活的时间表). A flexible schedule helps you stay organized without pressure. You can create time blocks, such as one evening for drawing and another for guitar practice. If one hobby catches your attention more than the other, feel free to give it more time.
▲ Why not get creative and combine your hobbies when possible? For example, if you love being outdoors and photography, take your camera with you when you go out. By doing this, you can enjoy the best of both worlds while keeping things fresh and exciting.
Perfection (完美) is not necessary. When you have many interests, it's easy to feel pressure to be good at all of them. However, hobbies are supposed to be enjoyable, not stressful! Focus on the learning process and let go of the need to be perfect. It's okay to be ''just okay'' at some things—what matters most is that they bring you joy.

六、书面表达
Dear Mary,
Thank you for your last letter, and I’d like to tell you something about my hobby. Hobbies are like colorful lights in life—they bring us joy and help us grow. My hobby is reading, which has become my closest friend over the years.
I started reading simple picture books at age 7 with my parents’ encouragement. Gradually, I moved to novels and science magazines. Last year, I joined a school reading club where I shared book reviews with classmates. Though it was challenging at first, practicing weekly improved my thinking skills. Now I even won a city reading competition!
Through reading, I’ve gained knowledge about different cultures and historical events. More importantly, it taught me that success comes from continuous learning. Books will always be my guide to exploring the wonderful world.
Yours,
Li Hua
