With almost all the spare time spent watching television and playing video games, many of today's children have never experienced the rewards of a hobby.
Not long ago, 1 to a large audience, I asked, "How many of you, when you were children, had a hobby?" Nearly everyone 2 their hands. I then asked them to keep their hands in the air if at least one of their children had a hobby. Most of the hands 3 down.
Thirty years ago, almost every kid in my neighbourhood had some kind of hobby. Collecting and trading baseball cards was a(n) 4 hobby, as were coin and stamp collecting. One of my friends was into photography. He's now a well-known 5. Another enjoyed building radios and he's now an electrical engineer. So you can see, hobbies often 6 lifelong interests, even careers.
Hobbies benefit children in many ways. Because they are 7 of personal achievement and a way of self-discovery, hobbies help build 8. Hobbies are actually educational 9 too. For example, a child who becomes 10 making rockets learns about propulsion(推动力) and aerodynamics(空气动力学). By working on hobbies, children learn to set goals, make 11, and solve all kinds of problems.
Some parents 12 that hobbies will not influence the kids' lessons positively. However, studies have shown that children with an active hobby 13 do better in school. Hobbies sharpen their focus and 14 their minds, benefiting kids academically(学业上).
In a word, having a hobby outside of school will enrich kids' lives and can provide many extra benefits you might not be 15 of.
