word junk shows that the food is rich in empty calories and has no nutritious value. The
Merriam-Webster dictionary first recognized the term fast food in 1951. The term junk
food appeared later, in the 1960s. It became popular during the following decade when
the song “Junk Food Junkie” reached the top of the charts in 1976. The United States has

9. A snowflake is created when an extremely cold water droplet freezes onto a dust
particle in the sky. From this, an ice crystal is formed. As it falls to the ground,
water vapour freezes onto it forming a six-sided snowflake. Each one develops under
slightly different atmospheric conditions. That’s why they all have a unique look.
The wide variety of snowflakes was discovered thanks to Wilson Alwyn Bentley.
A farmer from Vermont, he came to be known as the world’s expert on snow and is
remembered as the ‘Snowflake Man’. Bentley became interested in snowflakes as
a teenager. With a microscope, he tried to depict the snowflakes through drawings but
was never able to finish, as the snow would melt too quickly. Then after many unsuccessful
experiments, he finally found a way of taking photos of snowflakes and became one of the
first snowflake photographers. During his life he made more than 5,000 images of
snowflakes.

11. What do a philatelist, a numismatist and an arctophilist have in the common? 1) A philate­
list is a person who collects and studies postage stamps. The philately is often called the King
of hobbies. It all started in 1840 when Doctor Gray bought a few Penny Blacks the day they
were issued just to mark an the event. 2) So he may be considered the first stamp collector.
Twenty years later stamp enthusiasts finally got the name for a the hobby – timbromania.
It meant a mania or passion for the stamp collecting. I think the word sounded more like
a disease than the a hobby. 3) Luckily, in 1865 it was replaced with philately. Someone who
collects and studies the coins, paper money or medals is a  numismatist. 4)  A  collector of
teddy bears is an arctophilist. So you see they all are the collectors. And I think you didn’t
know a collector of the refrigerator magnets is called a memomagnetist. That’s OK, I didn’t
know it either.
