Kate's Hobby

My name is Kate. I have always wanted to have my own hobby. Until high school, I didn't get a hobby, although I tried many clubs. Last year, my friend  {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (邀请) me to a photo exhibition. At the exhibition, I saw a group of photos by a local  {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (艺术家) who told his life experiences with photos. I suddenly realized that what was  {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (珍贵的) than the photo itself was the story behind the photo, and I became interested in photography. 

Since then, I have dreamed  {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (发明;创造) fantastic works to tell my own life stories. However, I couldn't  {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (付得起) to buy a camera then. Luckily, my grandfather gave me one on my birthday. Then I started taking photos everywhere. I put my photos on the  {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (架子) in my room. My photos have kept my memories of wonderful old days. Taking photos has also become another way for me  {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (交流) with the world. 

Through {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (每日的) practice, my photography skills have improved greatly. So far my photos  {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (赢得) many prizes and I'm really proud of myself. {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (也许) I will hold my own photo exhibition one day.

I have a friend named Monty Roberts who owns a horse ranch (牧场). He has let me use his 1 to raise money for youth at risk programs. 

The last time I was there he told me his story. When he was young, his family is too 2 to have a house to live in. As a 3 , he had a poor childhood. When he was in high school, he was asked to write a paper about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up. That night he wrote a seven- page paper describing his goal of 4 a horse ranch. He also drew a picture to show a 4000- square- foot house that would sit on a beautiful farm. The next day he 5 it in to his teacher. Two days later he received his paper back. On the front page was a large red F. Roberts asked, "Why did I 6 an F?" His teacher said, "This is a (an)7 dream for a young boy like you. A horse ranch requires a lot of money. " Then the teacher added, "If you will rewrite this paper with a more realistic (现实的) goal, I will reconsider your grade. "

The boy went home and thought about it for a (an)8 and hard time. He asked his father what he should do. His father said, "Look, son, you have to have your own mind on this. " Finally, after sitting with it for a week, the boy turned in the same paper, making no 9 at all. He told his teacher, "You could keep the F and I still keep my dream. "

Monty tells me this story because I am sitting in his 4000- square- foot house in the middle of my 200- acre horse ranch. He said a lot of kids' dream can be stolen. Don't let anyone steal your dreams. Follow your heart, no matter what happens. 10 he had enough courage not to give up his dream.

At No. 150 High School of Changchun, Jilin Province, there are some talented students. They recreated the work A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains that{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(paint) by Wang Ximeng during the Northern Song Dynasty.

Zhou Baile is among{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(they). He spent much time and energy on the work. Once there was yellow paint on his school uniform. His family suggested that he change into a new school uniform,{#blank#}3{#/blank#} he refused." For me, the paint is a symbol of creation," Zhou said.

" The painting is 11 metres long and it took the students 129 days{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(finish) it," said Duan Yingzi, the art teacher who guided the students.

{#blank#}5{#/blank#}2022, Duan started a painting club to teach students to enjoy and copy the works of many famous Chinese art masters. A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains was one of the works. Later, Duan started{#blank#}6{#/blank#} painting project to copy the great work.

When they carried out the project, the students {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(careful) worked step by step, bringing the painting to life again on a big wall. They even added their own creative ideas.

" Seeing our work, I can sense how {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(excite) Wang Ximeng felt when he finished his great work," said one of the students." The process not only improves our {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(skill), but also helps us get relaxed," Zhou said.

Through the project, Duan {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(hope) the students can increase their understanding of Chinese painting and pass on the excellent traditional Chinese culture.
