II. Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer.
The hobby of collecting consists of acquiring specific items based on a
particular interest of the collector. These collections of things are often
highly organized, carefully cataloged, and attractively displayed. Since
collecting depends on the interests of the individual collector, it may deal
with almost any subject. The depth and breadth of the collection may also
vary. Some collectors choose to focus on a specific subtopic within their
area of general interest: for example, 19th Century postage stamp, milk
bottle labels from Sussex, or Mongolian harnesses and tack. Others prefer
to keep a more general collection, accumulating Star Trek merchandise, or
stamps from all countries of the world. Some collections are capable of
being completed, at least to the extent of owning one sample of each
possible item in the collection (e.g. a copy of every book by Agatha
Christie). Collectors who specifically try to assemble complete collections
in this way are sometimes called 'completist'. Upon completing a particular
collection, they may stop collecting, expand the collection to include
related items, or begin an entirely new collection. The most popular fields
in collecting have specialized commercial dealers that trade in the items
being collected, as well as related accessories. Many of these dealers
started as collectors themselves, then turned their hobby into a profession.
There are some limitations on collecting, however. Someone who has the
financial means to collect stamps might not be able to collect sport cars, for
example.
