    Some people see a hobby as a waste of time. They think a hobby is only something to pass the time. In fact, a hobby is much more than that. Its advantages（优点）are as follows.

    People can have time for themselves.

    If one has a hobby, he or she can enjoy quiet time. People usually think more clearly when they enjoy their favorite hobbies. People often get some good ideas at that time.

    People can find out their talent.

    People often find new talent of themselves when they enjoy their hobbies. Some people find their talent for playing the piano only when they sit down and play. The only way to find this talent is to try. The first thing you should do is to find something that you are interested in.

    People can feel relaxed.

    Most hobbies are good ways to relax. Coming home from work and sitting down to enjoy things you like helps you relax. Hobbies also help you get a better sleep.

    Many people enjoy watching movies in a cinema. They think the cinema has a better atmosphere (气氛) to enjoy the movie. However, I think people are happier and freer when watching movies at home.

    Watching movies at home is more comfortable. To watch movies in a cinema, you have to buy a ticket before you go there for a better seat. However, there is no need for people at home to worry about the ticket. They can enjoy movies at any time they like and with the most comfortable seat. What's more, people watching movies at home wouldn't have to face any traffic problems.

    It is free to watch movies at home. In the cinema, we can't go outside and do something else because the movie won't wait for us. Sometimes, if wemisspart of the movie, we can't follow the story. At home, we can pause at any time and go back to watch the part. 

    All in all, a cinema is a good place to watch movies, but it isn't the best place to enjoy the movies. I think watching movies at home is better.

    How many hours do you spend sitting in a chair every day? Eight hours in the office and three hours in front of the TV after work is common for many people.

    You don't need an expert to tell you that sitting too much is not good for your health. It will increase (增加) the risk of heart disease(疾病) and make you fatter. It will also be bad for your neck and spine (脊椎). A good diet and exercise can't make you better if you sit too much. The death rate for people who spend more hours sitting down is higher. In other words, sitting is killing us.                .Health experts suggest (建议) we should spend more hours standing instead of sitting.

    The BBC and University of Chester in the UK did a simple experiment (实验) with a small group of volunteers who usually spent most of the day sitting. They were asked to stand for at least three hours a day. The researchers found out that the blood glucose (葡萄糖) leveled off after a meal much quicker on the days when the volunteers stood. Standing also burned more calories (卡路里)—about 50 calories an hour.
