Question

From Monday to Friday,most people are busy working or studying. But in the evenings and at weekends,they are 1       and enjoy themselves. Some watch television or go to the cinema;others 2       sports. This is decided by their own interests.

There are many different ways to spend our free time. Almost everyone has some kinds of hobbies;it may be something from 3       stamps to making model planes. Some hobbies are very expensive,but others don't cost anything 4       . Some collections are worth a lot of money;others are valuable(有价值的) only to their owners.

I know a man who has a 5       collection worth several thousand dollars. A short time ago he bought an unusual fifty-cent piece which 6       him $ 250. He was very happy about it and thought the price was all right. On the other hand,my youngest brother collects 7       . He has almost 600 of them,but I wonder if they are worth any money. 8       ， to my brother,they are quite valuable. 9       makes him happier than to find a new match box for his collection.

That's what a hobby means,I think. It is something we 10       to do in our free time. The value in dollars is not important,but the pleasure it gives us is.
