Reading books is a good hobby for all kinds of reasons.
First, reading books is fun. You can always keep yourself amused if you like reading， especially when the weather is bad. It is a relaxing hobby, too. You can really become lost in a book.
Next, you can read a book almost anywhere: in a car, in a waiting-room, on a plane, in bed—even in the bath. All you need is a book! Reading is a convenient hobby as it is easy to stop and then start again.
Another good reason for reading books is that it is useful. If you read as a hobby, you will get better and better at it. This means that you will read faster and will become better at understanding what you read. As your reading improves, you will probably find your schoolwork become much easier. Many school subjects depend on good reading and, as you read, you learn more and more.
Some people say that reading is out of date. This is not true. You have to be able to read to use a computer and, the better you read, the better your computer skills will be. Reading is hardly out of date!
What other hobby could be more useful, or more enjoyable!

Do you like eating chocolate chip cookie？Thanks to Ruth Wakefield, they were invented by accident in 1930.
Ruth and her husband owned a restaurant called the Toll House. As manager and cook, Ruth kept very busy. One day in 1930, she was making some chocolate butter cookies．It was required that she should melt chocolate into the dough (面团)．However, she found that she had run out of baker's chocolate. So she had to break some semisweet chocolate (半甜巧克力) into small pieces and added them to the dough. She hoped these pieces of chocolate to melt.
After the cookies were baked (烤), to her surprise, the chocolate had not melted into the dough, and her cookies were not chocolate butter cookies. They smelt delicious. They tasted sweet and crispy．
They were named Toll House cookies after Ruth's restaurant and are the most popular cookies in America today. About seven billion chocolate chip cookies are eaten every year, and nearly half the cookies baked in American homes are chocolate chip cookies.
