ВАШВОЗМОЖНЫЙОТВЕТ:

 

Having a hobby is a very importent part of our life.

I think that hobbies help people (to) relax. It’s important for a person to spend time doing something he or she really likes for free.
Some of my friends collect things. Some collect stamps, some coins and some, toy soldiers. But the most popular hobbies are computer games and sports.
As for using hobbies for educational purposes, I think that some computer games can be educational. There is a game called “Touch-Type”. It’s a game where you don’t look at the keyboard while you type words. The program teaches you how to type without looking at your keyboard. When a person learns how to type this way, he or she saves a lot of time and energy on writing say, compositions or some other useful things on computers. The typing speed increases and tiredness decreases.
That’s all I wanted to say.

ВАШВОЗМОЖНЫЙОТВЕТ:

Watching films give a lot of joy and positive emotions. Nowadays, people can’t imagine their lives without movies.

Personally, I enjoy watching comedies or romantic-comedies. I find them very relaxing and therapeutic. I watch, I laugh and I feel good.
As a matter of fact, I watch movies pretty often. Two or three times a week.
As far as I remember, last week I watched a film called, “Some Like It Hot”. It’s an old and famous film, an absolute classic. It’s about two musicians who could not find a job in Chicago and the only available band positions open were for two female musicians. The guys decided to disguise themselves as women, got hired and the band then went to Miami. After that one millionaire fell in love with one of the guys. When the disguised man said that he was a man, the millionaire replied, “Everybody has their faults”. It was a very hilarious comedy.
