Different people have different interests in their free time. My friend Li Ming and I often go to the movies when we are free. However, we like different movies.

My favorite movie star is Wu Jing. He is a great actor. He looks handsome. He had a film called the Battleat Lake Changjin (《长津湖》) recently. It’s a wonderful war film. And it is very popular these days. I think it’s moving.

But Li Ming likes Shen Teng best. He thinks his movies are funny. He will laugh loudly when he watches them. One of Shen Teng’s movies is Crazy Allen (《疯狂的外星人》). But I don’t think it’s great. In fact, it’s boring. What’s more, Li Ming also likes watching Beijing Opera. He even hopes to be a Beijing Opera artist. I don’t like Beijing Opera very much, but my father likes it a lot. He often tells me, “Beijing Opera is a symbol of our traditional culture. We should learn and develop it.”

This term Frank’s school has a new club—the tennis club. Frank wants to join it, but he can’t play tennis at all (根本不).

Today is Friday. When Frank’s father gets home from work, (C) he talks to his father about the club. His father says,” I think you can ask Uncle Brown to teach you. He plays tennis really well.”

“Uncle Brown says he can help me. But he asks me to run with him for an hour every day,” Frank says. “I don’t want to do that. It’s too tiring(累人的).”

“Well, my son, Uncle Brown is right. To play a sport well, you must have a good body (身体). Running is tiring, but it makes you healthy!(D) Tennis is not a relaxing ball game. It’s tiring, too. But it’s fun to play, isn’t it?” says Frank’s father.

Frank thinks for a minute and says, “Thank you, Daddy. I know what to do now.”

The children in the Buddy Club are talking about their favourite activities.

Andy: I love football. Football is exciting and interesting. It makes me strong. I often play football for three hours a week. I meet many new friends when I play football. I don’t like basketball.

Jim: I don’t like football. I think badminton is interesting. It also makes me strong and I can play it even when it rains. I play badminton for three hours a week. I often play with students from Grade 8. I often beat them.

Lily: I don’t like ball games. I think singing is interesting. When I am tired, it makes me relaxed. All my friends like to listen to my songs. I can sing some English songs, too. I practise in the club for an hour a day.

Jane: Singing is interesting. But I like drawing better because I like colours. All my friends and teachers say my pictures are beautiful. I practise drawing with my teacher for an hour every day. I hope to be a painter when I grow up.
