But stamp collection does not make me think only of the past.Just as my mother collected for me, so I too am collecting for my future child.What better way will there be of interesting him in history,geography and languages,and of making these subjects live for him instead if being only things in school books?

但集邮不但让我想起过去。就像我的妈妈帮我收集邮票，我将来也会为我的孩子集邮。哪种方式让他对历史，地理和语言有兴趣，是让这些为他而存在还是让他只在学校的课本里了解？
