Last summer, Tina's parents needed to work in another city for a month. And Tina had to stay 1 Aunt Betsy in California.
Tina never saw Aunt Betsy before, 2 she was a little nervous(紧张的). Aunt Betsy told her the 3 in California was hot, so Tina put some shorts and T-shirts in her bag. She 4 put some books in her bag because she enjoyed reading. Her favorite 5 were about horses(马).
When the 6 came, Aunt Betsy picked up(接) Tina. On the way to Aunt Betsy's house, Tina 7 many horses in the fields(牧场). Tina liked 8 very much and she wished she could have a horse some day.
When they 9 Aunt Betsy's house, Tina saw a big picture on the wall. It was about a tall brown 10! Aunt Betsy was in the 11, and she was sitting on the horse.
“Do you 12 the horse? Her name is Lucky. Usually, I visit her 13 a week, every Saturday afternoon for an hour. We can go 14 together this weekend,” said Aunt Betsy.
Tina felt 15 because her aunt and she had the same hobby. It was going to be a wonderful holiday.

People's hobbies aren't always the same. They change with many things. Here are some examples:
Age
Hobbies change with your age. When you're a kid, you may be interested in playing games, collecting toys etc. When you study at school, you may be interested in sports, pop music and movie stars. When you're old, you may be interested in chatting and listening to Beijing Opera.
Job
Hobbies change with people's jobs. Teachers may like staying with their students. Doctors may like all kinds of medicine. Drivers may like all kinds of vehicles and athletes may like all kinds of sports games.
Season
Hobbies change with seasons. People may have different hobbies in different seasons. In spring, you may like flying kites. In summer, swimming is a good choice(选择). In autumn, you may like to go hiking and in winter, skating must be great fun.

A hobby is not a job or a school subject. A hobby is something you enjoy doing in your spare time. It's not something you need to do. It's just fun. Some people make model ships, keep pets, plant flowers, play computer games or chat on the Internet. Some paint pictures or dance to music. Some collect everything from stamps to seashells(海贝壳)… People take up hobbies because they think these activities can bring them many things like happiness, friendship and knowledge. Anyone, rich or poor, old or young, sick or well, can have a hobby. A hobby will make your life colorful.

To me, music is food and water. I know this isn't right for everyone. Usually lots of people go to concerts or listen to music records. Maybe some of you don't do these, but music is everywhere in our life. For example, when you watch movies or TV plays, we will find them boring if there's no music. And when you're waiting for the train or the plane, some music can make the time short.
Some people like to listen to the sound of the sea. Some enjoy listen to the singing of birds. Those sounds are some kind of music. So music has meaning for everyone. Of course, it has special meaning for people like me. We spend our lives playing or writing music.
Someone said, “Through music a child goes into a world of beauty(美丽), learns to take care of others and makes his mind and body healthy.”
–Yes, please. I feel very h because I didn't have breakfast this morning.
I to listen to music, but now I enjoy it.
The teacher tells him not to in class.
They a clean place to live us that day.
We couldn't wait to on the next job.
