Knowledge

In modern age of electronics and computers the road to knowledge is open to everybody. The only thing you need is a desire to learn. As John Ruskin, an English writer of the past said: “If you want knowledge, you must toil”.

But to have knowledge isn’t enough. You must know how to use it. You must be able, for example, to make a table, to wash a military uniform or to solve a problem after learning a theorem etc. 

       There are no useful activities without knowledge. Man is proud when he can do something for people because he knows how to do it. Another important thing is that you will need knowledge not only for work. You will need it to enjoy the riches of the science and art.

        To know something is first of all to be able to use knowledge. If you try to acquire knowledge and use it the right way, you will be of benefit for people.

But do you know how much knowledge do we need?
Can we have too much knowledge?
Do you think that people should know only those things which they need for their work?

Leisure time and hobby

Many men, many minds. All people are different and so they prefer spending their free time in different ways. Some of them go to the parks, forests, to the country and enjoy the beauty of nature. Others like to stay at home watching TV or reading books. There are people who are fond of cinema and theatre, so they try to go there as often as possible. Many people like to go in for sports; youngsters prefer to play computer games.

Hobby teaches people to plan their life and time. Some hobbies teach us to make useful things, develop our mind and body. If you have chosen a hobby according to your taste and character, you are lucky, because your life becomes more interesting and exciting. When the weather is bad people may go to a café, where they can listen to music, dance or just socialize. It is always interesting to share your opinion and to come to know the thoughts of the other people about the world outlook.

It’s hard to imagine our life without books. Books play such a great role in the development of personality. They help us to forget our daily problems and to pretend we travel to the past, future and to many different, wonderful places that we can’t visit in reality. Books teach us how to differ right from wrong, to understand friendship, people’s feelings.
