When I was a little child, I used to play with my friends all day long. We found that almost anything could bring fun to us. But now, I am growing up, things seem to change gradually that I dont realize. I had a lot of time to play before, but now nearly all my time is spent on study and homework. I used to watch cartoons, but now I prefer news and English programs. Generally speaking, things turn better. Now, I am interested in reading and writing. I think that the more good books I read, the more knowledge I get. The biggest change in my life was that I began to love sports at the age of ten. This is the most important change. Because I didnt use to play sports after school. When I was ten years old, I often fell ill. So my parents encouraged me to play sports after school. Now Im really interested in sports and Im much healthier. silent, require, absent, fail, interview, take pride in, be proud of, in person, influence, humorous, seldom1 Fill in the blanks with the correct forms of the words in the box.1.
