     Do you have any hobbies? If students don't have interest except school work, they may become
boring people.  And that can be bad for their studies.  Studying without relaxing isn't good for health.
We can't get good grades if we have bad health.  We should make use of our free time.  We should
do something we like. Some people like singing, taking photos and drawing pictures.  Other people 
prefer collecting stamps, reading or shopping. I have a few hobbies, but my favorite one is  collecting
stamps.  I like it best because I can learn a lot of things from stamps.
