Notes:
TRAINSPOTTING is a hobby in Britain, popular
mainly with boys but also with some adult
tích lũy men. It involves going to places where trains
can be seen, especially railway stations, and
collecting the numbers of railway engines
sự hiểu biết they see by writing them down. People
sometimes make fun of this hobby and the
people who do it because they think it is a
boring and ridiculous thing to do
