Some people say that having
а
hobby is important for everyone.
Today, people have
а
lot of options for spending their free time. Some people prefer doing
something that actually interests, relaxes or excites them such as painting or playing sports,
while others admit that they do not have
а
hobby. But can we live happily without having а
hobby?
In my opinion, everybody should have
а
hobby. Firstly, hobbles help us to relax and reduce
stress. For example, yoga, knitting and gardening help to calm your nerves and to relieve
tension after а hard day. Secondly, having а hobby can lead to acquiring skills, knowledge, and
experience. Our interests enrich our lives and help us to gain а better understanding of how the
world works. Besides, hobbles give people much room for self-expression.
However, some people say that having а hobby takes much time and energy, and they cannot fit
their interests into their busy schedules. ln addition, sometimes we have to dedicate plenty of
money to the activities that we enjoy doing.
But 1 believe that if you are fond of doing something, you will willingly give much attention
and effort to your interests. Some people even manage to turn hobbles like photography,
painting or writing into money-making businesses.
Т
о
sum up, hobbles make our lives more interesting and provide many social and health
benefits. They play а very important educational role, improve our physical and mental health
and provide us with motivation to increase our knowledge and to improve our skills. ln my
opinion, all hobbles are beneficial, though it is not always easy to find the right one.

 have a best friend. I'm friends with her since childhood. She always helps me. It does not need a long time to call and wait. Just say, "Come on, we need your help!" and she was an hour from my home. And help with the cleaning, and the dog can walk, and I help with homework. She's better than me learn and grasp the material on the fly. I can not keep her. I appreciate it and also render all possible assistance to her family: the garden tidy, the beds dug up, it shall water the trees. And in the summer we all gather fruit harvest. Since it is never boring, she will cheer up and will not give way to despair. She and I together and play, and a long chat on the phone, go to the dance together in art school. I love her very much and without always skuchayu.Ona -very good and kind man, sincere and caring.
Перевод:У меня есть лучшая подруга. Я с ней дружу с детства. Она  всегда мне Ее не нужно долго звать и ждать. Только скажешь:"Приходи, нужна твоя " и она уже через час у  меня дома. И с уборкой и с собакой может погулять, и мне с уроками. Она лучше меня учится и схватывает материал на лету. Мне за ней не угнаться. Я ценю ее и тоже оказываю ее семье посильную то в саду приберусь, то грядки вскопаю, то полью деревья. А летом мы все вместе собираем фруктовый урожай. С ней никогда не бывает скучно, она поднимет настроение и не даст впадать в отчаяние. Мы с ней вместе и играем, и долго болтаем по телефону, вместе ходим на танцы и в художественную школу. я ее очень люблю и без нее всегда скучаю.Она -очень хороший и добрый человек, искренняя и заботливая.
