C(2024·南通期中)
Do you love finding and keeping certain things?
You do? It's very common for the young to collect(收集) things. In fact, scientists have found the bones of ancient(古代的) people and collections of shiny things put beside them.
I guess the art of collecting goes back a long way. When I was about ten years old, I collected comic(连环画) books. In fact, I was crazy about comic books! I used to buy them and trade them. One time, I used my lunch money to buy comics. I got into a lot of trouble for that. My mother wouldn't let me play outside for a week.
At one time, I had more than 600 comic books! I kept them in a place of honour on my shelf. I would show them off to anyone who came to visit. I was very proud of them until one day a friend came to my house with another friend of his.
I showed his friend my collection and he laughed, saying that it was a childish thing to do. “▲” he said. I was very sad. The next day, I put all my comics away and didn't look at them again for fifteen years.
Years later, I heard that a person had just paid 500 dollars for a special comic book. I could not believe it! I knew I had that comic book in my collection and I had many more comics that were worth a lot of money.
I sold them all and made thousands of dollars, but I still kept my favourite ones. They're very special to me. I'll never sell them.
Remember, it's your own life. Keep your hobby and it may pay you some day.
