Dear Sigmund Friend

My name is Simon and I am a Grade 9 student. I am crazy   31    football! I love   32    football, reading about football, and of course, playing football. My dream   33   a great football player. However, my love of football has become a big problem, and I would like your   34   .

I have   35   friends, and we always play football together at school or in the park after school. We like staying out late to play football. We often play for three hours or more and forget when to stop. Then I   36    trouble at home because my parents do not allow me to play outside after 6 p.m. I really do not understand why they are so strict. I feel stressed and angry      37   . I believe it is important for us to spend some time on our hobbies. They can help us relax and make our lives    38   .I wish I could have my parents’   39   .

Is it bad to stay out late to play football? Should I spend less time on it? I really do not know    40   . Can you please advise me how to achieve a balance between my schoolwork and my hobbies? Thanks a lot.

Best wishes

Simon

【解析】【主旨大意】本文是一名中學生，在他的愛好和學生生活之間出現矛盾時，向別人尋求幫助的信件。

1.考查詞組be crazy about“對…感到瘋狂”。

2.watching “觀看比賽”；seeing “看電影”；looking at“看著”；looking不及物東西，不能直接加賓語。本句為看足球比賽，故選A。

3.dream作主語，系動詞用is，be to do，“將要做某事”。

4.由文章的倒數第三句“Can you please advise me how to achieve a balance between my schoolwork and my hobbies?”可知作者是為了尋求一些建議。

5.根據下句可知我有很多的朋友。plenty of“許多大量的”。

6.考查詞組get into trouble “陷入困境”。  

7.考查詞組from time to time “不時的；時時的”。

8.句意為：它（足球）能夠使我們放松，使生活更有趣。應使用比較級形式。interesting用來形容物。

9.support，做名詞，意為“支持；擁護”，不可數。

10.句意為：我確實不知道做什么。
