    I started this hobby 1 I was a little boy. At that time, I always 2 my parents to read stories to me. At first, they read stories to me every night. Soon they got 3with reading to me. So as soon as I could, I learned to 4 I started with some simple ABC books. Soon I could read some simple stories. Now I read 5that I can get.

    Reading is a good 6 for me to learn about many things. I learned about how people lived in the past. I learned about the space travel, big 7 like whales (鲸鱼), and many other things in the world.
