1. Listen and read:
Nick: Hi Mi, welcome to our house!
Elena: Come upstairs! I`ll show my room.
Mi: Wow! You have so many dolls.
Elena: Yes. My hobby is collecting dolls. Do you have a hobby?
Mi: I like collecting glass bottles.
Elena: Really? That`s very unusual. Is it expensive?
Mi: Not at all, I just keep the bottles after we use them. What about doll collecting? Is it expensive?
Elena: I guess so, but all of my dolls are presents. My parents, and my aunt and uncle always give me dolls on special occasions.
Mi: Your dolls are all very different.
Elena: Yes, they`re from all over the world!
Nick: I don`t know why girls collect things. It`s a piece of cake.
Mi: Do you have a difficult hobby, Nick?
