Hobby is also a way of making friends.
Starting a new school term is always exciting. It is a chance to see your friends again. But the most exciting thing is that the new term is a chance to take up new hobbies. It is common in Britain for students to take up new hobbies after the Christmas holidays. Promising to start something new is a common New Year resolution.
Most schools offer different kinds of hobby classes. Students take them in their free periods or after school. There are some classes you have to pay and others are free. For example, I once took a free Wednesday evening gymnastics class my school offered. But when I learnt how to play the drum my parent had to pay for the lessons.
The most popular extra classes at my school were piano lessons and drama club. Both classes offered exams students could take. Students with many hobbies sometimes felt more stressed than those without any. But the students with hobbies would leave school with many extra skills.
I haven't continued any of the hobbies I began at school. But I have never regretted taking them. My best friend today is someone I met in my gymnastics class.

In an Indonesian jungle lived an old woman who had raised a lizard(蜥蜴) as if he were her son.One day the lizard said，“Please go to the house of seven sisters.Ask if one of the sisters will marry me.”
Each day for a week，the old woman returned with bridal gifts and the marriage offer.One by one，six of the seven sisters refused.Finally she came to the youngest sister，Kapapitoe.“I will marry him，”she said.
The six elder sisters were cruel to Kapapitoe's lizard husband.After working in the jungle all day，they would clean their feet on his scaly back.As the planting feast of Ta Datoe approached，they said to him，“You may not go to this feast，for you are an ugly lizard.”Kapapitoe was kind to her husband and hated the way her sisters treated him.As the youngest，though，she had no power over them.
The day before the feast，the lizard asked his wife to carry him into the jungle.There he used his long tail to cut trees and grass until he had cleared a field for planting.“There，now they will surely let me go the planting feast tomorrow！”he said to Kapapitoe.Remaining cruel，the six sisters told him he was too revolting to be seen in their company.
On the day of the feast，Kapapitoe was ready to go to the river and wash.“Please take me to the river with you.”said her husband，and so she did.The lizard went into the water.When he came out，he was a handsome young man dressed in fine clothes!
At the feast everyone asked，“Who is that handsome man with Kapapitoe？” The old woman smiled and said，“It is her husband.”

Weather changes when the temperature and the amount of water in the atmosphere change.We can see and feel water coming from the atmosphere when we have rain.But the water must somehow get back to the atmosphere.Meteorologists call this the water cycle.
There are many stages in the water cycle.Rain falls when water vapour in clouds condenses(凝结). Drops of water form and fall to the ground.The water soaks into the ground and feeds streams and rivers.A lot of rain falls into the sea.The heat of the sun evaporates some of the water in the ground and in the rivers，lakes，and the sea.It changes the liquid water into water vapour.The vapour rises onto the air.Water vapour is normally invisible.On a very damp or humid day，however，you can sometimes see water vapour rising from a puddle(水坑) or pond in a mist(薄雾) above the water.Water vapour also gets into the air from living things.Trees and other plants take in water through their roots and give off water vapour from their leaves.People and land animal drink water and breathe out water vapour.In all these ways the water returns to the air.There it gathers to form clouds and condenses to form rain.The rain falls to earth，and the cycle starts again.It continues even if snow or hail(冰雹) fall instead because both eventually melt to form water.The amount of water vapour in the air depends on the temperature.The air is more moist(潮湿) in the tropics(热带) than in the cold polar regions.
28．What is the main idea of the passage? A．Water cycle. B．Water vapour.
C．How rain forms. D．Water，vapour，rain.
29．How many ways of the water returning to the air are discussed in the text? A．Two. B．Three. C．Four. D．Five.
30．Whether water vapour can be seen or not depends on________. A．how much water is evaporated B．how good your eyes are
