I gave up all my other hobbies, such as collecting stamps, reading novels, playing football, etc, and spent all my spare time reading poetry and writing it. This habit of writing poetry on every possible occasion(场合) soon got me into trouble at school. If a lesson did not interest me, I would take out my notebook and start writing poems in class. Of course I did this very carefully, but it was not long before I got caught. One day while I was busy writing a poem during a geography lesson, I looked up to find the teacher standing over me. He looked rather angry because I was not paying attention. He tore my poem up, and warned me not to waste time in his lesson. All the same I believed that I had written a good poem, so that evening I wrote it out again from memory. Not long after, I read about a poetry contest(比赛) and I decided to send in my poem. Weeks later, long after I had given up hope, I got a letter telling me I had won the first prize. Everyone at school was veryimpressed --- except the geography teacher. He watched me more carefully than ever. He was quite sure that I was not going to write poetry in his lesson!6. What was the hobby that the author picked up when he was 12 years old?A.

We don’t know if either story is true, but they are both interesting.The first explanation is based on the fact that President Jackson had very little education. In fact, he had difficulty reading and writing. When important papers came to Jackson, he tried to read them and then had his assistants explain what they said. If he approved of a paper, he would write “all correct” on it. The problem was that he didn’t know how to spell, so what he really wrote was “ol korekt”. After a while, he shortened that term to “OK”.The second explanation is based on the place where President Van Buren was born, Kinderhook, New York. Van Buren’s friends organized a club to help him become President. They called the club the Old Kinderhook Club, and anyone who supported Van Buren was called “OK”.11. The author _______.A. believes both of the storiesB. doesn’t believe a word of the storiesC. is not sure whether the stories are trueD. is telling the stories just for fun12.
