19、e 15th century, mostpeople didnt have one, as it referred to a particular kind of horse. A hobby was a small horsethat could “amble”(漫步）， a particularly smooth, quick gait（步态）that was prized for longrides over terrible roads. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the word is a shortenedform of

20、 Hobbin, the name for a cart-horse, like Rover for a dog.The hobby also had a part in medieval folk celebrations.

27、y for fun, but mainly as ameaningful part of our work.However, once we start to join endless video calls for a few hours each day, we become verytired. This term is called “zoom fatigue”, and its related to overusing virtual communicationplatforms.There are some advantages of using video conferencin

28、g tools. Without them, it might beimpossible for us to work from home. But what we havent expected is a price that we need to payfor that sort of convenience.When we are having a face-to-face conversation with others, everything seems pretty natural.While speaking, you look into the eyes, sometimes
