People have a natural interest in collecting things. Stamps may be one of the most popular collections as
well as coins, books, postcards and so on.
There are many different kinds of collections. Some collections are souvenirs (纪念品) of a certain place. I
once visited a couple (夫妻). They collect masks (面具) every time they travel. One wall of their dining room is
covered with traditional masks from South Africa and many other places. When they are on a trip they just look for
a mask to add to their collection.
Some collections are gifts. I know a man. He gives his mother a plate made in China every Mother’s Day.
He visits many stores for weeks to find a plate that he didn’t purchase before. His mother is very happy and she
has more than twenty plates in her collection now.
Learning new things can be a main reason behind a collection. Alan is my friend. He is 35 years old. He
began collecting things about wars when he was 15 years old. He has maps, books, flags and photos about wars.
His collections help him learn a lot about army history.需要更多资料，请加微信：educat51
Some people collect things because of their value (价值). I worked with a woman two years ago. She
collected Barbie dolls. She said some day she would sell her collection and make lots of money.

Have you ever wanted to stop eating something sweet but you couldn’t? Is this the first thing that you look for
cookies when you arrive home from school? Can you eat a box of chocolate all by yourself? Can you say “no” to
sweets at parties? If you can’t, then there is a reason. That is perhaps you’re sugar addict (有瘾的人). Does that
sound funny? Well, doctors say that people who often eat sweets can easily become addicted to sugar. What's more,
most sugar addicts don't even know that they’re addicted!
