Anyone, rich or poor, old or young, sick or well, can follow an interesting hobby.Hobbies can help a person's mental(脑力的) and physical health. Doctors have found that hobbies are valuable in helping patients recover from physical or mental illness.

The history of industrial development has a great number of examples.In 1870, homes and mules were the prime source of power on . farmers. One horse or mule was required to suppor t four human beings, a ratio (比率) that remained almost constant for many decades. At that time, had a national commission been asked to forecast the population for 1970, its answer probably would hav e depended on whether its consultants were of an economic o r technological men of mind. Had they been "economists", the y would probably have projected the 1970 home or mule popul ation to be more than 50 million. Had they been "t echnologists", they would have recognized that the power of steam had already been harnessed to industry and to land and ocean transport. They would have recognized further that it would be the prime source of power on the farm. It w ould have been difficult for them to avoid the conclusion that the home and mule population would decline rapidly.36.

The 15-year-old Beijinger always ① ; other classmates or the teacher to give the answer. “What if my answer is wrong?”Wang asks.Wang is typicalamong students who don’t put their hands up to answer teac hers’questions. At middle schools, this situation is very common.Wang told teens that in his class of 53 students, only six or seven raise their hands when a question is ask ed. “I think it’s a problem that might affect our studies , but I am afraid of making mistakes in front of my class mates,”he said.This problem has attracted teachers’attention. Hu Wei, a teacher from Yibin No. 6 Middle School, Sichuan, listed some possible reasons to explain why students don’t raise their hands: they lack confidence, they are afraid of show ing off, or they’re afraid of losing face by giving a wr ong answer.To encourage students to raise their hands and get more involved in class, Husuggests that teachers should repeat the question, then t ry to guide and encourage students to offer their answer s.②also advised students not to be shy, but confident a nd brave enough to try.
