Why are interests important? Having interests can make your life more enjoyable and meaningful. When you do something you love, you feel happy and relaxed. Interests can also help you develop new skills. For example, if you like painting, you will learn how to use colours and draw different shapes. This can help you become more creative.
Interests can also help you make friends. If you join a club for your interest, you will meet people who have the same hobby as you. You can talk about your favourite things and learn from each other.
Some people think they don't have any interests. But that's not true. Everyone has something they enjoy doing. It could be cooking, hiking, listening to music or even collecting stones. You just need to find what you love.
Remember, interests are not just for fun. They can help you grow as a person and make your life better.

Dear Mike,
Thanks for your letter. I'm very glad to tell you about my hobbies.
My favourite hobby is playing basketball. I started it when I was ten years old. I like it because it keeps me healthy and helps me make many friends. I usually play it with my classmates after school. When I play basketball, I feel energetic and forget all my troubles.
I also enjoy reading storybooks. I read them every night before going to bed. Reading makes me learn a lot of new things and opens up a whole new world to me. Sometimes I share interesting stories with my family.
I'm looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours,
Li Ming
