People may have many different types of hobbies during the lifetime. When we are very young, we spend most of the time playing with toy cars. We may enjoy playing a sandbox or building with wooden blocks(积木).
When we get older, we start our first real hobbies. Some kids go out for a sport like football or skating. These new interests can be quite time-consuming and most children spend a lot of time on them. Some children might get interested in some quiet activities like reading, painting or stamp collecting. Others might enjoy playing an instrument like the piano or the violin.
As we get older, our hobbies might change or go on. Some people might spend their whole life on stamp collecting. Other people might change their interests every year. Some people are lucky because they have found jobs that are similar to their hobbies, like a person who loves teaching and becomes a teacher.
Riding in the air
In movies，we sometimes see cars flying(飞行)in the sky. But now we can see them in real life as well. A US company made a flying motorcycle(摩托车)called Speeder. It is the world's first flying motorcycle.
Speeder doesn't have wheels(轮子)like other motorcycles. It has a touch screen(触摸屏). Riders can turn the motorcycle around by touching the screen. Riders can also use the screen to talk to people on the ground.
According to the company's official website，Speeder can fly as high as 4，500 m above ground. Speeder has four engines(引擎). It can fly at a speed of 240 km per hour. That's much faster than a car. Speeder runs on diesel fuel(柴油)and can fly for 10 to 22 minutes. In the future，the company will use clean energy to run Speeder.
Do you know?
•Speeder riders must weigh less than 109 kg. If a rider is too heavy，it will be hard for the motorcycle to take off.
•Speeder riders must have a pilot's license(飞行员执照).
•Speeder can only ride in the sky.
a. Turn the motorcycle around. b. Turn the motorcycle into a car.

Ali, who was working a long way from home wanted to send a letter to his wife, but he could neither read nor write, and he had to work all day, so he could only look for somebody to write his letter late at night. At last he found the house of a letter-writer whose name was Nasreddin.
Nasreddin was already in bed. "It is late," he said. "What do you want?" "I want you to write a letter to my wife," said Ali, Nasreddin was not pleased. He thought for a few seconds and then said, "Has the letter got to go far?" "What does that matter?" answered Ali.
"Well, my writing is so strange that only I can read it, and if I have to travel a long way to read your letter to your wife, it will cost you a lot of money." Ali went away quickly.

It's December. The weather is snowy and really cold in the north of China. You can see many children playing with snow. Some of them are making snowmen. Some are skating on the river, because it's so cold that the water in the river freezes (结冰). It's a white world. How beautiful! But in Australia now, the weather is hot. Many people go swimming in the sea. They are having a good time. Jim and his friends are playing soccer near the sea. The sunny weather is really cool to them. They want to swim after playing soccer.
Why are they swimming in December? It is winter, isn't it? Yes, it is in China. But it isn't in Australia. That's because we, Chinese and Australians , have different seasons (季节) in a year.
