7、From Monday to Friday most people are busy working or studying, but in the evenings and weekends they are free and _ _ 21 _ _ themselves. Some watch television or go to the movies, others take part in sports. This is decided by their own interests.
There are many different ways to spend our free time. Almost everyone has some kind of _ _ 22 _ _ . It may be something from colleting stamps to making model planes. Some hobbies are very expensive, but others don't cost anything at all. Some collections are worth a lot of money, others are valuable only to their owners.
I know a man who has a coin collection worth several _ _ 23 _ _ dollars. A short time ago he bought a rare fifty-cent piece which cost him ＄250! He was very happy about this collection and thought the price was all right. On the other hand, my youngest brother collects match boxes. He has almost 600 kinds of them, but I wonder _ _ 24 _ _ they are worth any money. However, to my brother they are quite valuable. _ _ 25 _ _ 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 like to do in our free time just for the fun of it. The value in dollars is not important, but the pleasure it gives us is.
