5. 阅读下面材料,从方框中所给的A一E五个选项中选出最佳选项(其中一项是多余选项),将其序号填入小题,并回答小题。
Hobbies do more than filling time, they shape our lives. Let's explore how hobbies make life brighter.

Hobbies help our brains take a break from worries. For example, drawing or coloring can help us calm down. The sound of a paintbrush moving on paper calms our thoughts. Even 15 minutes of hobby time each day can be helpful.

Shared hobbies bring people together. Imagine joining a school photography club: you meet someone who also loves taking photos. You exchange tips, laugh over funny pictures, and celebrate good ones. Friends made through hobbies often share stronger connections.

Hobbies secretly train us for future difficulties. For example, gardening teaches patience as we wait or seeds to grow. Creative writing improves imagination and language skills. These later help in jobs, relationships, and personal growth.

Hobbies are not just fun, they are classrooms where we learn without textbooks! For example, growing plants helps you learn biology and cooking shows science. So next time you practice a hobby, remember: you're not just having fun—you're collecting wisdom(智慧) one step at a time!
A. Relaxing the Mind
B. Developing Life Skills
C. Making More Money
D. Getting Some Knowledge
E. Building Friendship Bridges
What can you get from your hobbies?(不超过 15 个词)
