Suggested answer:

My hobby is collecting stamps. I have been collecting both local stamps and foreign stamps for more than 5 years so I have a great collection now.
My hobby started when I was a little girl. I love the pictures in the stamps so I have my own way to collect them. At first, I only collected local stamps which I got from the letters of my friends and relatives. After that, my uncle went abroad so the collection of foreign stamps started to increase.
at the exhibition.
Now I have two albums to keep the stamps, one for local and the other for foreign ones. I classify them into different categories: animals, plants, landscapes and so on.
I am very proud of my collection. It helps me to broaden my knowledge about the world. Thanks to it, I can know some wonders in the world and other fascinating things.
I plan to join the stamps exhibitions to learn from experienced stamp collectors and one day, I will expose my collection
IV. HOMEWORK:
