Russians' Hobbies

[Benjamin Rifkin]

Dear SEELANGers:

Many of us teach the topic "hobbies" and "free time".  Moskovskii
komsomolets is sponsoring a contest for the citizen of the Russian
Federation with the most interesting hobby.  The descriptions of the
semi-finalists' interests make for interesting reading for students at the
intermediate low to mid reading proficiency level:

Sincerely,

Ben Rifkin
