People live a very busy life now, so they have little free time. Still they try their best to make use of their free time. Then a hobby is a favorite enjoyment of a person.
Hobbies are different from tastes. People choose their hobbies according to their tastes. Someone likes watching TV, lying on a sofa, while someone likes climbing the mountains.
If you have chosen a hobby to your liking, you are lucky. You have made your life more interesting. Though there are many different hobbies：reading, collecting, playing sports, travelling and others, many people have nothing to do when they are free.
If a person collects something, he does it according to how much money he has. Someone collects cars or pictures of world-known painters, while someone collects beer cans(罐) or stamps. Any collection gives people enjoyment.
