Although people love festivals very much, there are also some disadvantages. First, festivals are very costly. Because the general purpose of festivals is to preserve cultural heritages, a nation is willing to spend a lot of money on this. Moreover, during a festival, most people do not work but spend money on expensive gifts for their friends and relatives. Second, festivals can be dangerous. People may drink a lot during a festival and cause road accidents. In many festivals, there are races like cow-racing and elephant racing which may be dangerous, especially for children. Moreover, in some festivals, when people rush to see the events, they may also cause other people to get hurt. Third, festivals may affect the environment. After a festival, the roads are full of colorful paper, flowers, waste cans or bottles that people throw away. Trees along the roadsides may be damaged by the crowds. Furthermore, the noise from music and other performances also cause noise pollution.

Househusbands
Dear Editor,
I read with interest the article on American families. In general I agree with it, but there are some important things it left out. It didn't tell the reader much about the life of a househusband. It's not an easy life. I know, because I'm now a househusband myself. A househusband has to change many of his ideas and his ways.
First of all, he has to change the way he thinks about time. Before I was a househusband, I worked full-time for the New York Times. I was a reporter, and time was always important. We had to finish our article quickly and give them to the editor. Everyone was always in a hurry. This is the way, many other men work, too. Businessmen, lawyers, bankers, and doctors all have to work quickly.
At home it's different. The househusband cannot be in a hurry all the time. If you rush around, you will make everyone unhappy! The children will be unhappy because they don't understand. For them, time is not important. Your wife will be unhappy because the children are unhappy. You will be unhappy, too, because they are all unhappy. So you have to learn to slow down. That is the first and most important rule for a househusband.
There is something else the househusband must learn. You must learn to show how you feel about things. At work, men usually do not talk about feelings. If they do, people think they are strange. So, many men are not used to telling anyone about their feelings. They do not know how to talk about their anger, worries, or love. But children need to know how you feel. They need to know how much you love them. If you are angry, they need to know why. Your wife also needs to know about your feelings. If you do not say anything, your family may get the wrong idea. Then there may be serious problems.
People talk a lot about househusbands these days. Usually they talk about men doing the housework, the cooking, cleaning, and shopping. But in my opinion, these are the easiest things to learn. It was much harder for me to change the way I think and the way I act with my family. I think, other men will also find this harder, but, like me, will find it necessary if they want to have a happy family!

Melissa, runner
I started running about a year ago. At first, I just ran 1 or 2 kilometers, but I now do about 10. My speed is improving too. I have joined a running club in the town center. I didn't know any of the members before, but now most of them are my mates. My dad was a keen runner when he was younger - he was really fit, but he stopped when he hurt his leg. Actually, I need to order some new running shoes - just a simple pair. I don't think the expensive ones make you run faster!
Sharon, skateboarder
I go skateboarding most evenings in the park. I suppose that's quite a lot, but the park is only a minute or two from our apartment, and I only stay there half an hour or so. Although I stay longer when my friends are there. Sometimes my cousin's there too. He's a beginner, and I'm teaching him a few moves. He's starting to get really good!
Latifa, rock climber
Two of my best friends suggested I should start rock climbing, so now the three of us do it together. The mother of one of them takes us once or twice a month, but I'd like to do it every week. When I started, I didn't know you need to get so much stuff - and it isn't exactly cheap! I really love it. I don't think I''ll ever get bored of climbing!

There are many activities that people do in their free time to relax their stressed mind. Among long list of varios activities, there is one I’m interested in, that is travelling – an informative and adventurous hobby which is also one of the most popular pastimes. For some it is a waste of time and money. They argue to use an alternative like read a book or watch a film related to places to be travelled. They forget that touch of actuality gives a different type of sensation and satisfaction.Travelling is a perfect educational hobby as it helps you learn a lot of new things in life. Travelling gives you a great break from your routine and an opportunity to learn a new culture and make friends. The people you come across and interact with may give you some new chances in life, or they may open up your mind. Another interesting thing about travel is that you can travel by many different means such as trains, buses, airplanes, ....
