Many people have hobbies. They make our life more interesting. A hobby is what people like to do when they have free time. Everyone chooses a hobby according to his character and taste. Some people are fond of music, others like to read books. Some people like to collect stamps, coins or badges, others prefer gardening or hiking or taking photographs. Some people like to cook, others like to knitter sew. Generally speaking, a hobby is a matter of taste.
My hobby is playing computer games. Both grown-ups and children are fond of it now. It has become one of the most popular hobbies nowadays. I think that playing with a computer is very interesting. It is not only "wasting time" as some people say.
Computer games make us to think things over properly, they widen and develop our mind and imagination. I have a good collection of different games and when I have some free time I play them with great pleasure. My favourite game is...
Some of my friends have the same hobby and we like to play together. ПЕРЕВОД У многих людей есть хобби. Они делают нашу жизнь более интересной.Хобби это то, что люди хотели бы делать, когда у них есть свободное время. Каждый выбирает хобби согласно его характеру и вкусу. Некоторые люди любят музыку, другие любят читать книги. Некоторые люди любят собирать марки, монеты или значки, другие предпочитают озеленение или пеший туризм или фотографировать. Некоторые люди любят готовить, другие вязать или шить. Грубо говоря, хобби - это дело вкуса. Мое хобби - играть в компьютерные игры. Как взрослые, так и дети любят это теперь. Это стало одним из наиболее популярных хобби в настоящее время. Я думаю, что компьютерная игра очень интересна. Это не только "тратить время", как некоторые люди говорят. Компьютерные игры стимулируют нас обдумать вещи должным образом, они расширяют и развивают наш ум и воображение. У меня есть хорошая коллекция различных игр, и когда у меня есть свободное время, я играю в них с большим удовольствием.
1. All the committee members voted in favour of the proposal. 2. There was no reason to doubt the girl's sincerity in wishing to help. 3. The words were out before he could check them. Now there was no way of avoiding embarrassment. 4. His defeat at the championship was something he still had to get over. He remembered his trainer saying that it would never do to be too confident of one's success. 5. As it was, the man could produce no evidence in support of his accusation and agreed to withdraw it. 6. If you wish for my true opinion, I'm not very keen on detective stories, they never seem to amount to much. 7. From long years of experience he had learned to trust nobody's judgement in such matters but his own. 8. The young scientist owed much of his success to the professor who had always supported him whole-heartedly in whatever he did. 9. He had certainly been most sincere in his intentions, but what actually came of his efforts is quite a different matter. 10. The students had met to elect someone as their representative on the committee. 11. I made another effort but it was hopeless. It looked as if the name had escaped my memory completely. 12. The doctor walked on, lost in thought, and it was several minutes before he became aware of what was happening around. 13. My friend explained that the information had been given him in confidence and he just couldn't see himself betraying the trust put in him. 14. The young man's manner clearly betrayed his emotion. He was asking no favour, he said, he was demanding his rights. 15. Selfish people seldom have friends. 16. The boat was struggling against a heavy wind. 17. It was useless trying to influence the girl. Her mind was made up.
