They also paint pictures, go to concerts, and play musical instruments. They collect everything from books to leaves and from shells to stamps. People take up hobbies because these activities offer enjoyment, friendship, knowledge and relaxation. Sometimes they even get money from their hobbies. Hobbies help people relax after hard work, and give them a balance（平衡）between work and play. Anyone, rich or poor, old or young, sick or well, can follow a satisfying hobby, no matter how old he or she is, or how much money he or she has got. Hobbies can help a person’s physical and mental health. Doctors have found that hobbies are valuable in helping patients recover from physical or mental illness. Many hospitals treat patients by having them take up interesting hobbies. In early times, most people were too busy making a living to have many hobbies.

With the help of machines they don’t need to spend lots of time on their jobs. More people are retiring（退休）than ever before, and at an earlier age. If a person has his own hobby, he will never need to worry about his life after he retires.

But what about happiness? According to Elizabeth Dunn and Michal Norton, “money can make you more satisfied with life”. The secret is that you need to know how    56    (spend) it. In their book Happy Money: The New Science of Smarter Spending, they offer tips for happy spending. •Buy experiences instead of things. A pair of new shoes may make you happy for a while, but the joy soon disappears. Spend your money on experiences such as going on holiday or    57    (visit) a museum, which will make you happier than things and give you something to talk about when you are with your friends. •Make it a treat. You love hamburgers, but    58    you have one every day, the enjoyable experience will finally become boring. So, make a hamburger a special treat    59    a whole week of hard work. •Invest (投入) in others. The combination (结合) of using time and money on someone else is the magic formula (公式) for happiness. If you are preparing    60    birthday gift for your friend, stop thinking about buying a bracelet (手镯). Instead, go and buy the beads (珠子) and make the bracelet    61    (you). After all, a gift made by hand not only shows your thoughtful mind, but also even    62    (good) expresses how much you care about your friend. Even with these tips, however, Dunn and Norton said that you shouldn’t “bet on” (孤注一掷) money buying happiness. Happiness can’t    63    (search) for, but it comes to you    64    (slow) —it’s the result of having something     65     (mean) to do, something to hope for and someone to love.  六、材料作文66．如何能够成为更好的自己，怎样完善自己，提升自己呢？ 请以“How to improve myself”为题，写一篇英语短文。参考词汇：respect elders 尊敬长辈要求：（1）文中须包含提示中的所有信息，可适当发挥；（2）文中不要出现考生真实姓名和学校名称；（3）词数100左右（开头已给出，不计入总词数）。How to improve myselfI’ll try to improve myself and make me a better person. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
