Every man has his hobby-horse. What's Lazy Bob's hobby? 人各有所好。懒惰的鲍勃又有什么爱好呢?

1 One day, Mr White told the class to get ready for a hobby show. All the students had the whole morning to get what they were going to show.

2 All the students came back on time except Bob, the laziest boy in his classmates' eyes. It was very difficult to believe that such a boy could have a hobby. But to their surprise, Bob came back with many beautiful stamps in his hand. Mr White was very happy after watching them. However, Bob was going to take them back.

3 “Bob, you can't take them back until the others watch them this afternoon, ”said Mr White.

4 “But I'm sorry they are my brother's, ” he answered. “He doesn't want them to be out of our home for long. He's afraid that they will be lost.”

5 “Bob, you should show your own hobby here, not someone else's, ” Mr White became a bit angry.

6 But Bob's following words made him even angrier. “Mr White, it's true that I have a hobby. My hobby is watching my brother collecting stamps.”
