From Monday until Friday most people are busy working or studying ,but in the evenings and on weekends they are free to relax and enjoy themselves .Some watch TV or go to the movies others take part in sports .It depends on individual interests .There are many different ways to spend our spare time .
Almost everyone has some kind of hobby .It may be anything from collecting stamps to making model airplanes .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 thousand dollars .A short time ago he bought a rare fifty-cent piece worth $ 250 ! He was very happy about his purchase（buying）and thought the price was reasonable .On the other hand ,my youngest brother collects matchboxes .He has almost 600 of them but I doubt (hesitate to believe ) if they are worth any money .However ,to my brother they are extremely valuable .Nothing makes him happier than to find a new matchbox for his collection .
That’s what a hobby means ,I guess .It is something we like to do in our spare time simply for the fun of it .The
value in dollars is not important ,but the pleasure it gives us is .
56．The word “individual”in the first paragraph most probably means .

There is a lot of misunderstanding（误解）about studying .Most students have not been taught the rules behind really good working .Above is a graph（图）showing the amount a person learns against the number of hours he works in a day .If he doesn’t do any work ,he learns nothing（point O）.If he does an hour’s work ,he learns a certain amount （point 1）.If he does two hours’ work he learns about twice as much(point 2) .If he does more work he’ll learn still more（point 3）.Now if he tries to do 23hours’ work in 24 ,he’ll be so tired that he’ll hardly remember anything :what he learns will be very little （point 4）.If he did less work ,he’d learn more (point 5).
Point x is the very maximum（最大量）anyone can learn in the day.And this is the optimum If you try to work past the optimum ,you can only get tired and achieve （达到）less than the best .
Most students find their optimum at about five hours a day .Yours may be a little more or a little lessbut if you get in five hours’ good work a day ,you will be doing well .
When you’ve finished your optimum ,you must stop .You must not then sit around in the chair thinking about the work that only tires without any learning .Your mind cannot rest .You must get out and do something .It doesn’t matter whatanything so long as you are doing ,something else but work .

America has long been considered the land of opportunity by those from other countries .Americans ,too ,believe that the United States give almost limitless opportunity for those who want to open business on their own .
Today ,Americans are still fond of trying their hand at becoming small business people ,even though only one out of two survives in the first two years .Many of these people start their business for the wrong reason :to get away from the paper work of their present jobs or to exchange the responsibility of their present jobs for freer life styles .But more ,not less paper work and responsibility come with the ownership of a small business.
Not all small businesses succeed .Fifty percent of the 4,550,000 that start in the United States ever fail .Still ninety-five percent of businesses in the U.S.can be regarded as small ,and these businesses altogether produce forty percent of America’s total national products .

Today we use pens all the time without thinking too much about them .However ,there was a time when writing was quite difficult because such instruments did not exist .
From the eighth to the eighteenth century ,people wrote with quills .A quill is a bird feather .Most quills were strong gooes or swan feathers .
In the 1700s ,metal pens were invented .These pens had a metal point ,called a nib ,which was connected to a wooden holder .Like quills ,metal pens had to be dipped in ink quite often in order to write .
The fountain pen ,which can be refilled ,was invented in 1884 by I .E.WATERMAN.A fountain pen has a supply of ink in it and permanent steel point .Ink constantly flows to the point so it is unnecessary for the writer to stop writing every few words to dip the pen .This made writing more enjoyable .The ball-point pens used today were first sold in 1946 .They also have their own supply of ink inside .However ,the ink is somewhat thicker and oilier than regular ink .This pen has a small metal ball that turns when the pen is moved across a sheet of paper .
69．In the fifteenth century ,people wrote with .
A．metal pens B．fountain pens C．ball pens D．bird feathers
70．The text mainly tells us .
A．how difficult it was to write without pens B．when metal pens were invented
