UNIT 13: WRITING

Writing:
My hobby is collecting stamps,
Collecting stamps help to broaden my knowledge
about the world around me and it is also an effective way
to be good at geography.
My stamp collection began when I was 11 years old.
At that time I just collected the stamps from discarded
envelops that my relative and my friends gave me.
I love the pictures and the information in these stamps. I
often keep the less common inside a small album and give
the common ones to others.
I keep the collection for myself and show it to my friends
who are also interested in collecting stamps.
I think I’ll continue to make my collection
richer and richer.

Thank You for
Your Attention

Writing:
My hobby is collecting stamps,
I have been collecting both local stamps and foreign stamps for more than 5 years
so I have a great collection now.
My hobby got started/ started when I was a little boy. I had always wanted the
beautiful pictures on the stamps so I thought of a way to keep them. At first I only
collected local stamps which I got from the letters of my friends and relatives. Then my
relatives went abroad so my collection of foreign stamps started to increase.

Now I have two albums, one for local and the other for foreign ones. I classify the
stamps into categories before putting stamps into my stamp albums. I put stamps of
animals, flowers, birds, landscape, on different pages, which makes it easier to look
for them.
When I have extra stamps of the same kind I often exchange them with my friends
to enrich my collection. If I have money, I also go to the post office to buy some
valuable ones.
I’m very proud of my collection. It helps to broaden my knowledge about the
world around me and it is also an effective way to improve my geography.
I plan to join the stamp exhibitions to learn from experienced stamps collectors and
maybe I can expose my collection at an exhibition in the future.
