I would like to give a talk about collecting things. It is a very popular hobby for people all over the world, especially for children and grown-ups.

The main reason why people collect coins, stamps, books etc. is uniqueness of every collection. Every subject has its own distinctive story, and it's tremendous. Moreover, in the process of collecting people apply skills in evaluating, classifying and arranging items.

As for me, I have my own collection of minerals. They fill a bulky closet in my room. Some of  them I exchanged, some I bought and some are presents from my friends who know about my hobby. I do not want collecting something else - I am satisfied with my own unique collection.

But people in my country do not collect minerals only. For example, my friend has a huge collection of coins. It is really valuable - he even has a coin minted in 1925! As far as I know, Russian people also adore collecting weapon, posters, magazines, books and many other things. 

All in all, collecting things is an exciting hobby for people of all ages. When people collect something, they improve patience and carefulness, find new friends who are collectors too.

Nowdays more and more people start thinking about fashion. They say we usually judge strangers by the clothes they wear, because it is the only thing we know about them.

To begin with, you clothes reflect your social status. It goes without saying that if you are a business lady you should be dressed appropriately. To put it in another way, if a person is a head of a company, it is preferable to him to wear well branded clothes.

Psychologically, people spend so much time on fashion and buying clothes to forget about different life problems. That is tosay, shopping for clothes can be a good therapy in case of life troubles. However, it is not worth a sacrifice if you are a shopoholic and buy everything you see; the feeling of style and good taste are surely important.

перевод:

Сегодня все больше и больше людей начинают задумываться о моде. Мы судим незнакомцев по тому, что на них надето, потому что это единственное, что мы о них знаем на данный момент.

Для начала, одежда отражает ваш социальный статус. Подразумевается, что если вы бизнесвумен, то вы должны быть одеты соответствующе. Или, другой пример, если человек - глава крупной компании, ему предпочтительнее носить брендовую одежду.

Психологически, люди тратят много времени и денег на одежду, чтобы забыть о разных рутинных проблемах. Стоит сказать, что шоппинг может быть хорошей терапией в случае каких-либо жизненных разочарований. Тем не менее, это не стоит того, если вы шопоголик и покупаете все, что попадается вам на глаза; чувство стиля и хороший вкус жизненно важны в этом деле.
