Most people have developed some hobbies at a point in their lives, such as doing sports, playing an instrument, painting, cooking and something else. There are many reasons and skills for taking up a hobby.
Realize you have more time than you think.
This is probably the first thing that keeps most people away from developing a hobby.1. But we waste so much time on social media and television commercials and then worry about the life in which we have no time to develop a hobby. Spare some time for a hobby in your day. Plan ahead and just do it.
Involve other people.
Why? Well, have you ever noticed that you stick to something longer when you feel that you cannot let another person down? Therefore, get someone jog with you, make music with you, or share recipes with you. Meanwhile, you will inspire them to stick to their hobby. 2.
Put your money where your mouth is.
3. So give out a bit of your budget to the hobby you choose so that you cannot blame a lack of “materials” for not doing anything.
4.
For me, this has been the most important step to stick to a hobby. If you jog, decide which race you want to enter this year. If you practice music, organize a concert.
Find the pleasure in what you do.
As with most things, the starting of only getting a few things ready can be difficult. But don’t give up. 5.
A. It is a total win-win situation.
B. Work towards something.
C. Think of a hobby that might interest you.
D. Others’ help will definitely do you good.
E. You don’t think that you have enough time to start it.
F. The fact is that people put money where their heart is.
G. Once you have started, you’ll find the beauty and relaxation.
Lucy， whose skeleton（骨骼） was discovered in Ethiopia in 1974， died shortly after she fell out of a tree， according to a new study published Monday in the British journal Nature．
For their research， Kappelman and Dr． Richard Ketcham used a CT scanner to create more than 35，000 "slices" of Lucy's skeleton． Scientists named her Lucy from the Beatles song "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds"， which was played at the camp the night of her discovery．
The following analysis of the slices showed sharp， clean breaks seen at the end of Lucy's right humerus （肱骨） are similar to bone breaks seen in victims of falls．
The researchers concluded that these and other breaks in her skeleton show that Lucy， who is believed to have stood about 3 feet 6 inches and weighed about 60 pounds， fell feet first and used her arms to support herself ﹣ but that the injury was too severe to have been survivable．
The researchers estimate that Lucy was going about 35 miles an hour when she hit the ground after falling from a height of roughly 40 feet， according to the statement．
That sounds plausible． But other scientists are doubtful． "There are countless explanations for bone breaks，" Dr， Donald C， Johanson， director of the Institute of Human Origins and one of the scientists who discovered Lucy， said， "The suggestion that she fell out of a tree is largely a just﹣so story and therefore unprovable． " Johanson said it was more likely that Lucy's breaks occurred long after she died， saying that "elephant bones appear to have the same kind of breaks， It's unlikely they fell out of a tree．
But the new research focused on "a small number of breaks" that are consistent with "high﹣energy bone﹣to﹣bone influences" and which differ from the sorts of breaks commonly seen in other collected bones． Kappelman responded in an email， "These appear to have occurred at or near the time of death． "
1.What can we infer about Lucy from Kappelman and Dr． Richard Ketcham's research？
A.She got her name from a song．
B.She had more than 35，000 slices．

D.She made an effort to save herself．
2.What does the underlined word "plausible" in Paragraph 6 probably mean？
A.Reasonable．
B.Creative．
C.Surprising．
D.Unbelievable．
3.Which of the following would Johanson probably agree？
A.Elephants are unlikely to die from falling．
B.Lucy got breaks at or near the time of death．
C.Other reasons for the breaks should be considered．
D.Lucy's bone breaks differ from other bone breaks．
4.What conclusion can we draw from the passage？
A.Lucy didn't die from falling out of a tree．
B.The newly published study was meaningless．
C.The argument on how Lucy died will continue．
D.Scientists will find another way to solve the problem．
