1 Read the text and find some usual and unusual things people can collect. Fill in the mind map. Hobby. Collecting Things
How we like to have free time! We do look forward to weekends and holidays. Why? Then we will have enough time for our pastime, our favourite leisure activities! For our hobbies!
You know, some people are interested in arts, the other are fond of travelling or are keen on sports. Moreover, people are ready not only much time but much money on their hobbies as well. People buy and keep different things, make collections. You may think they waste money on useless things but for a collector his collection is a real treasure, often an embodiment of his dreams. People collect anything: canvases, books, cars, stamps, badges, even royal memorabilia and miniature coaches. The collections vary in price, size and number of items. They can be kept in albums and galleries, on the shelves and outdoors.
Tastes differ.
