For example, to some people, eating seems to be their only interest in life. Some people have wide and various interests while others have narrow, limited interests.
34、A hobby is an activity which one enjoys doing in his/her free time, such as collecting stamps or playing a musical instrument, etc. Both interests and hobbies can help us enjoy our lives and relax after a days hard work.When working on board, the crewmembers seldom have time for the things that they
35、 are interested in, like going to movies and playing football. But it is favorable for them to do some of other interesting things, like reading, fishing, photography, playing chess, etc. If you are interested in reading, you may go to find some books and magazines you like. When your vessel is at a
36、 foreign port, you can also buy some magazines there and enjoy another kind of culture and art. If you have the hobby of fishing, to be a seaman is good, I should say. Think about the fish youve caught at sea. It must be a nice feeling. Answer the following questions1. What is an interest? Name a fe
