Interest is the Best Teacher. (兴趣是最好的老师。)

Interest is the Best Teacher.

Interest can be a very good teacher. It guides you to discover things you are interested in and explore the mysteries of some amazing thing. When your teacher asks you to learn something, you

are forced to, not active. But if you are interested in something, you will be glad to study it. You will search the Internet to find information or ask someone who knows something about it. You will try your best analyze it and understand it. Doing so always has a good effect on yourself.

The famous basketball player, Michael Jordan once said: "I love this game." When asked why he could get great achievements in basketball. Interest became the teacher of Jordan. The love of basketball took him into the glory of success.

Rooted in everyone’s heart, interest is not far away from us. What’s the most important is how you take it. Our hearts are many wireless stations, the more you receive messages sent by interest, and the more successful you will be.

My Hobbies

I have many hobbies, such as sports, singing, playing the violin and keeping a diary.

Of all my hobbies I like sports best and my favorite sport is basketball. It’s part of my life. I began to play basketball in my childhood. I still remember the good old days when I played with my classmates after school. Later on, as I grew up, almost everything changed, but this sport-playing basketball remained and my love of it grew even stronger.

I love this sport because it brings joys and health to my life. When I got tired from office work, I went to the sports ground and felt refreshed. If there were worries and cares from daily life.

I went to the sports ground. There everything went away except basketball. It is basketball that keeps me in good shape and mood.
