【推荐1】From Monday to Friday most people are busy working or studying, and in the evening and on weekends they are free and enjoy themselves. Some watch television or go to the movies, and others do sports. It’s up to their own interests.

Almost everyone has some hobbies. It may be something from collecting stamps to making model planes. Some hobbies are very expensive but others don’t cost anything at all. Some collections are worth a lot of money, and others are valuable (有价值的) only for their owners.

That’s what a hobby means, I think. It is something we like to do in our free time just for fun.

【推荐2】Look at the schoolbag. It’s black and white. It’s a boy’s schoolbag. I can see a name on it. It is Eric. It’s his bag.

What’s in the schoolbag? Oh, there is an English book, a notebook and a dictionary in it. The English book is yellow and green. The notebook is blue and white. The dictionary is red and black. It’s an English dictionary. Oh, a pencil box is in the bag, too. It’s a black pencil box.

【推荐3】Swimming is very popular. People like swimming in summer because water makes people feel cool. If you like swimming but swim in a wrong place, it may be dangerous. These years, a lot of people died when they were enjoying themselves in water, and most of them were students. Some people are not careful in swimming. They often think they swim so well that nothing will happen to them in water. Summer is here again. If you go swimming in summer, don’t get into water when you are alone. If there is a “No swimming” sign, still don’t get into water. If you remember these, swimming will be safe.

【推荐1】Being outgoing is good for your life. Those who are more outgoing like to meet lots of people and have more fun in life. In fact, being outgoing is not so hard as you think. Even shy people can be outgoing.

You can start becoming outgoing with your best friend. But the difficulty comes when you meet strangers or new friends. Smile more, and usually they will return your smile. In this way, you may have more talks. Start a talk, and just a simple “Hello!” or “How is it going?” is a good start. If you want to make interesting talks, you should read news in newspapers and prepare your views (看法), or surf the internet for new information and then keep them in mind.

The easiest way to become more outgoing is to go out. This is also the most important step. Go to a park, beach, club, party or any other place that you think can be fun.
