# 1 My home, sweet home
Home is definitely a lot more than just a roof, four walls, windows and a door. Home is where we learn the first lessons in life. Home is the symbol of human togetherness — a place where all of us learn the first steps of life. No matter how far and how long I’m travelling, there’s always something special about coming home. ‘East or West, home is the best’ as the saying goes.
I was born in Moscow. All the facilities such as, markets, schools, hospitals, banks, museums, parks etc. are all within a walk able distance. The building where I live has nine floors and each floor has four apartments. I live on the third floor.
I live in a two bedroom apartment and it is not a very large one, but it has nice rooms with two windows. Also it has wonderful balcony and a good kitchen. The balcony is not very large, it faces the main road. There is a car parking near the house and a small children’s playground where kids could play.
I live with my parents. We are three members in our family. My dad is working as a doctor in Sklifosovsky Institute. My mom is a designer. We all make our home. I love my parents and they in turn do all they can to make my life cheerful and enjoyable. When I return from school I feel great comfort at my house.
My home is the most important place in my life.
I feel fully safe and secure in my home.
I love my sweet home.

Мой дом, милый дом
Определенно дом — это намного больше, чем просто крыша, четыре стены, окна и дверь. В доме мы учимся первым урокам жизни.

Home… to me, it is my nest, my cave, my comfort zone for heart and soul, my safe haven. Home is also the place where I design my environment to reflect my personality, turning my surroundings into an extension of myself and making them part of me visually as well as ideologically. Home is where I come back to after an outing, and it awaits me with my worn slippers, my comfy recliner and my happy pets. Home is where I know every nook and cranny, every creak and groan, every smell and every patch of light and shadow. My home is my castle… I have the right to make it almost inaccessible to unwelcome intruders and welcoming to those I love and respect. It is my retreat from the world, the showcase for my treasures, and the stronghold of my values. Home… it is my second skin, my soil in which I am rooted, the roof over my head and the blanket for my soul. Sometimes I wonder how a professionally decorated house or apartment can be a real home to the people who live in it. To me, it seems as if that was the same as wearing a stranger’s clothes or somebody else’s prescription glasses. Sure, it may serve the basic purpose and it may look better than if you used your own things and ideas, but it’s just not you. Isn’t hiring somebody to create your living space, your home, a lot like having the secretary choose your friend’s birthday present flowers and put a birthday card in front of you to sign while making your dinner reservations? The birthday is remembered and observed, the employee quite possibly has impeccable taste and chooses well, yet the whole setup misses the original idea by miles. What about adding one’s own personal touches to a professionally created environment then? Would this fix the problem? It might – but usually, such a professionally designed environment is finely balanced, and changes or additions as small as a misfit picture frame in the wrong place or a chair pulled closer to the coffee table for comfort mar the professional’s composition and, in a way, defeat the purpose behind hiring a decorator in the first place. I personally believe that a home should grow over time and be cultivated by those who live in it, rather than be served like a classy but prefabricated dinner by a stranger. Strangers just never put the right amount of salt in it, if you ask me. Have you ever watched a dog turn ’round and ’round before finally lying down for a cozy nap? Some animals in the wild do the same thing, and I think the purpose of this is to create a sort of molded dip in the ground cover for added comfort. As for me, I like my slippers molded to my feet, my chair molded to my body and, generally, my home molded to my mind and soul. These things do add a lot of comfort to the dog bed part of life. Comfort is not the only reason for having things «just so», though. If you have a runaway brain cell (singular) like I do, you probably live pretty much on instinct at least some of the time. Living on instinct means, in part, that you don’t notice much of what you’re used to, but anything out of the ordinary makes you perk up your ears and squirt some adrenaline through your system just in case it’s needed. For me, any unfamiliar noise, smell or sight does it, and I get flighty without meaning to. At the same time, being in my familiar, second-skin surroundings at home gives me peace of mind and a feeling of security which is as intense as that nervousness is. I suppose you could say that there is a lot of mental and emotional security in old slippers and the faint buzzing of your refrigerator. Security. Have you ever noticed that your home is the only place in the world where your level of security is entirely up to you? You have choices ranging from unlocked doors to barred windows, both in the physical and the figurative sense. You have the option to keep out the unwelcome by way of locks, caller ID and the «off» button on the TV. Although there are exceptions such as determined criminals or junk e-mail over which we can’t always have control, the home is where we make the rules, where we decide what or who may be part of our personal lives. Whether we entertain friends, have a family get-together, take in stray animals or people, or post «No Trespassing» signs around our property and refuse the traveling salesman or missionary, it’s our choice.

Introduction
Home, every person living on our enormous planet, Earth, understands this word in his/her own way. For one, it is a cozy apartment, for another it is the city where she or he was born, and some people perceive the whole country or the whole planet as their home.
Our ancestors put a lot in the concept of the home. Thus, according to the Bible the ark that saved Noah from the flood, became his home, and for the rest — a symbol of life, of a new, better civilization. If we make reference to the countless riddles, proverbs, sayings, for example, east or west home is best, home sweet, home, keep the home fires burning, my home is my castle an so on, we see that home symbolizes both the real and the spiritual world. Since the dawn of time, it was a talisman for man from the evil. Even a lot of the components of the inner and outer parts had their own special, not only domestic, but also spiritual purpose: the threshold, the stove, the window, etc.
Whatever our home is, a large country house, a cozy city apartment, a small bungalow or just a camper van, it protects us from the outside world, giving us a sense of security and safety. We associate it with the family nest where it is safe and secure.
Home is a symbol of both the Motherland and the family, and the continuity of generations, a symbol of childhood, spiritual memory. It is very important not to lose all this, and also to be able to build your own home, your own life.
I consider that home is the foundation on which our whole life is built, so it is very important for a person to feel comfortable, warm and good at home. At home you can always relax, get rest, gain strength and make important decisions.
Home is the place where any emotional wound is treated, the place where you are accepted for who you are.
Without a home there can be no inner harmony, which is always associated with a deep sense of home. A person without a sense of home as if does not live true life; life is postponed in this case.
Difference between home and house
So if we speak about home we should differentiate such notions as “home” and “house”. Both children and grown up people may use these words as synonyms and this is not right.
House is what you see in the street. It can be a block of flats, a bungalow, an office building, an abandoned house and so on. It’s not necessary that people live in this or that house. In this case we speak about it having in mind some type of building. In other words, house is not always someone’s home.
Home is the place where you live. It can be anything. If you live in an apartment, then this is your home. And if you live in a tent or in a penthouse — that’s all you call home.
According to the oxford dictionary home is the place where one lives permanently, especially as a member of a family or household[1] and house is a building for human habitation, especially one that consists of a ground floor and one or more upper stores[2]. Thus first of all house is the building and home is the place of living.
The word “home” provides us with the feeling of warmth, comfort and security. Probably, a pragmatist or a man without a hint of romanticism would say that home is the structure where people live. Or this is the place where he/she lives specifically. But in reality, home is something more than walls, floor, ceilings, windows and doors. Although, of course, all these attributes are usually extremely important and present its physical side. Home is a place where you feel protected.
Sometimes you can own a building, you can come to it every day after study or work, but you do not feel comfortable there, even if it is a luxury penthouse or a large private house. Is it possible to call this place home in every sense of the word? I think – not. It’s a house, not home. And there are cases when a person is absolutely happy when he returns every day just to a small room in a hostel or a small apartment without all modern conveniences. But man feels comfortable there. There he/she feels safe, relaxed, confident and comfortable. And in this case – it is home.
Home reflects people’s character
Not only people can tell about their homes but homes can tell a lot about their owners as well. Home is our reflection, the reflection of our state, our inner world. This place is a whole universe, hidden in a small space, capable of telling about different interesting things regarding the life of the owners.
When we cannot organize our everyday life, our living, we are trying to escape from home to other places, looking for harmony, rest and happiness. But if there is no happiness and harmony at home you would hardly find these things in other places too. No matter how many times a week you return home and how many hours you spend there — its walls should be your fortress, your real support.
There is no riddle in the fact that house as well as its condition affects the person. But the house is built by a human and all the inside accommodations are created by a human. So the person is fully responsible for his/her home.
Everything in our homes is filled with thoughts and feelings, and the walls absorb the energy of the people living in it like a sponge. Every detail: interior items, the color of the curtains, the arrangement of furniture, the lighting of the rooms — everything reflects the inner world of the inhabitant and tells about his/her character traits, worldviews, way of life. For instance, when we see a lot of old photographs, rare gizmos that dilute modern design in the apartment we can decide that the person who cherishes the memory of the ancestors and honoring family traditions lives here.
A folk wisdom says: «The gate shows the owner». So, if a person has permanent mess in the apartment, it means that he/she is unorganized, lazy and irresponsible. But when a person is disciplined, tidy, hardworking nature, the house is always kept clean and tidy.
Therefore, all things that we surround ourselves with are reflection of ourselves. Consequently, having estimated the home, its internal and external appearance, we can get information about the owner.
Home in our life
So, home plays an important role in the life of every person. Home is the place where any emotional wound is treated, the place where you are accepted for who you are.
Without a home there can be no inner harmony, which is always associated with a deep sense of home. A person without a sense of home as if does not live true life; life goes by in this case.
Unfortunately, home for many people becomes just a slug. But after all the most important moments of life happen at home. We build relationships, raise children, and become older at home.
Any person, especially a woman or a child needs home, the feeling of own home. Without this feeling of home, a person can easily fall ill, depressed and frustrated, without this feeling there can be no true harmony and inner comfort. Such a person does not seem to live but just exist; life is postponed for later. For a woman, home is her real kingdom, her universe. It is no coincidence that girls very often play houses in childhood. Probably, the desire to equip their homes is laid in them genetically; it’s like with birds — the need to build your own nest. For children, regardless of age, until they have their own family, home is the place where their parents live. And it is the responsibility of all parents to make home for their children a happy place. The climate that prevails at home plays a very important role for a child. If it is joyful and cozy at home, then the child will grow up with the right thoughts, because very often if the atmosphere in the house is bad and tense, the child is looking for comfort not among the native walls, but in the street and bad things may happen to him/her.
The theme of home is touched upon by many writers worldwide. The authors told us about different homes where various families live in their works. So, home helps the writers to describe their characters better, reveal their inner world, feelings and emotions.
Home is a place where human moral values, love for parents and a sense of responsibility for the actions are born and brought up. In childhood we often hear: “My home is my castle!” and it is not necessary that our home has thick walls and towers, but the main thing is that we feel comfort and warmth, support and protection there. Unfortunately, sometimes it happens that a person may lose his/her home and then this person feels very miserable and unhappy.
Conclusion
The multiple concept of “home” allows us to speak of the unity of the small and the large, the ratio of the material and the spiritual, the external and the internal. Home is a huge responsibility. Home is the source of our strength and good emotions. People should treat it with respect and reverence and be careful not to defile own home with scandals, swearing and cursing, because all these negative things are deposited on its walls.
It depends on us what home we will have. Every day at your home can be happy and full of joy and delight, bring you satisfaction, and on the contrary the days here may be long and tense.
Our life starts at home and it is very important what it will be like, our beginning.
Of course, the outer world was and remains rather cruel and cool, so each person should have his/her own shelter, which will protect against all the troubles and failures. A good home is an excellent defense against this cruelty. It is the bridge between generations and contributes greatly to the preservation of traditions. It is impossible to overestimate the importance that we attach to our home. This place usually gives us comfort and safety; fence us off from the hustle and bustle of the outside world. Here our family lives and friends gather. At home, we can fully be ourselves, freely express our individuality and thoughts.
One more expression, said by a great Russian writer, L.N. Tolstoy, comes to my mind in conclusion: “Happy is the person who is happy at home.” I fully agree with this expression and I wish everyone to be happy at home! A person who does not have home can hardly feel completely happy.

В топике Дом, милый дом я расскажу, чем является для меня мой дом или квартира, это не важно. Главное, чтобы каждый человек жил в тех условиях, которые ему удобны и приятны. Я считаю, что приглашать дизайнера для обустройства собственного жилья не очень правильно, ведь наш дом растет вместе с нами, и каждый год мы вкладываем в оформление и заботу о собственном доме много усилий и частичку души. Поэтому старые квартиры и дома так хорошо отображают личность своего владельца. Очень важный вопрос – это безопасность дома: надо соблюдать все простые правила, и тогда вас никогда не потревожат незваные и неприятные гости. Любите свой дом!

Текст Home Sweet Home с переводом.
Home Sweet Home
Родной дом
Imagine living in a sweet little country house called ‘Rose Cottage’ or a huge Tudor-style house called ‘Woodlands’. Sounds nice, doesn’t it? Not all British people are lucky enough to live in houses as nice as these, but they do live in a wide range of houses that can be newly-built or up to 500 years old. | Представьте жизнь в милом маленьком загородном доме под названием “Розовый Коттедж” или в огромном доме, построенным в стиле 15-го века и называемым “Лесная местность”. Звучит прекрасно, не так ли? Не всем британцам повезло жить в таких замечательных домах, как эти, но они все-таки живут в широком спектре домов, которые могут быть новостройками или достигать 500 лет. | |
Detached & Semi-detached Houses | Отдельно стоящие (одноквартирные) дома & дома с общей стеной (двухквартирные дома) | |
A lot of British people live in detached or semidetached properties. A detached house is not joined to another. A semi-detached is joined on one side to another house. They are brick houses built in various styles. They are made of either red or brown brick. Some of the houses were built in Victorian times between 1837 and 1901 were large villas. The exteriors are like works of art with steep slate roofs, stained glass panels in doors and windows, iron railings, tall chimney pots and large bay windows. They also had basements and attics. This type of house is often found in the suburbs, on the outskirts of a town or city or in villages. | Много британцев живут в отдельно стоящих домах. Отдельно стоящий дом не присоединен к другому. Дом с общей стеной имеет одну общую стену с другим домом. Они являются кирпичными домами в различных стилях. Они строятся либо из красного либо бурого кирпича. Некоторые из домов были построены в Викторианские времена между 1837 и 1901 годом и являются большими виллами. Их фасад, как произведение искусства, с крутыми шиферными крышами, крашеными стеклами в дверях и окнах, железными перилами, высокими колпаками над дымовой трубой и большими стеклянными выступающими окнами. Этот тип домов часто встречается в пригородах, окраинах маленького или большого города или в деревнях. | |
Terraced house | Дома с террасами | |
Most people who live in or near town centres live in terraced houses. Most terraced houses were built to house people who came to towns and cities to work in the factories and mills during the Industrial Revolution. Rows of houses were built back-to-back and they were joined together to save space. Each row of houses is a terrace and they only have two rooms downstairs and two rooms upstairs. | Большинство людей, которые живут в центре или вокруг него, живут в домах с террасами. Большинство домов с террасами были построены, чтобы разместить людей, которые приезжали в малые и большие города для работы на фабриках и мельницах во время Промышленной революции. Ряды домов были построены плотно друг к другу, и они соединялись друг с другом для экономии места. Каждый ряд домов является террасой, и эти дома имеют по две верхних и нижних комнаты. | |
Flats & Council Houses | Квартиры & Муниципальные дома | |
In inner-city areas, you can often find huge tower blocks of flats most of which were built during the 1950s and 60s. Some of these have been renovated and have recently become popular with wealthy young professionals. Others are council-owned or cheap-to-rent flats that were built after the Second World War to replace houses that had been destroyed or to clear urban slums. Also, in many cities and towns there are large council house estates. | Внутри городов вы часто можете найти огромные многоквартирные дома, большинство из которых были построены в 1950-х и 60-х годах. Некоторые из них были отремонтированы и в последнее время стали популярными у богатых молодых профессионалов. Другие находятся под владением муниципалитета или являются дешевыми для съема квартирами, которые были построены после Второй Мировой войны, чтобы заменить разрушенные дома или для расчистки городских трущоб. Также во многих больших и малых городах есть большие муниципальные владения. | |
Bungalows | Бунгало (одноэтажные дома) | |
A bungalow is a house which is only on one floor with no stairs. It may be joined to another bungalow or it might stand alone. Some of them have an extra room in the loft. These are called dormer bungalows. They are usually found in the suburbs or in villages. Retired or elderly people often live in these houses. | Бунгало – это дом, у которого только один этаж без лестничной клетки. Он может быть присоединен к другому бунгало или может стоять отдельно. Некоторые из них имеют дополнительное помещение на чердаке. Они называются бунгало с мансардой. Они обычно встречаются в пригородах и деревнях. Пенсионеры и пожилые люди част живут в таких домах. |

Home,
Sweet Home
It
does not matter what your home is like — a country mansion,
a
more modest detached
or
semi-detached
house, a
flat
in
a
block
of flats
or
even a room
in
a hostel.
Anyway,
it is the place where you once move and start to
furnish and
decorate
it
to your own taste. It becomes your second ‘ego’.
Your
second ‘ego’ is very big and disquieting if you have a house.
There is enough room for everything: a hall,
a kitchen
with
a dining
room,
a
living
room
or
a lounge,
a
couple of bedrooms and storerooms,
a
toilet
and
a bathroom.
You
can walk slowly around the house thinking what else you can do to
renovate
it.
You
come to the kitchen: kitchen furniture,
kitchen utensils, a
refrigerator
(fridge) with
a freezer,
a
dishwasher,
an
electric
or
gas
cooker with
an oven.
Probably
nothing needs to be changed here.
The
dining room is lovely. A big dining
table with
chairs
in
the centre, a cupboard
with
tea
sets and
dinner
sets. There
is enough place to keep all cutlery
in.
The
spacious living room is the heart of the house. It is the place where
you can have a chance to see the rest of the family. They come in the
evening to sit around the coffee table in soft armchairs and on the
sofa. A fireplace and houseplants make the living room really cosy.
Your
bedroom is your private area though most bedrooms are alike: a single
or a double bed, a wardrobe, one or two bedside tables and a dressing
table.
You
look inside the bathroom: a sink, hot and cold taps and a bath.
You
are quite satisfied with what you have seen, but still doubt disturbs
you: ‘Is there anything to change?’ Yes! The walls of the rooms
should be papered,
and
in the bathroom and toilet — tiled!
Instead
of linoleum
there
should be a parquet
floor. You
do it all, but doubt does not leave you. You start moving the
furniture around the bedroom, because the dressing table blocks
out the light.
Those
who live in a one-room
or
two-room
flat
may feel pity for those who live in houses. They do not have such
problems. At the same time they have a lot of privileges:
central
heating, running water, a
refuse-chute
and
… nice neighbours
who
like to play music at midnight. Owners
of
small flats are happy to have small problems and
they
love their homes no less than those who live in three-storeyed
palaces. Home, sweet home.
Match
the words with their definitions.
detached
house a comfortable room in a house where people sit and relax
semi-detached
house a house which is not joined to another house
lounge a
room where things are stored
refuse-chute the
knives, forks and spoons that you use for
eating
food (AmE silverware)
fireplace a
large open container for water, usually fixed to a wall and connected
to pipes that bring the water and carry it away
cutlery an
object used for controlling how much water comes out from a pipe (AmE
faucet)
wardrobe a
long narrow pipe that slopes down so that rubbish can slide down it
from place to another.
storeroom a
house which is joined to another house by one
wall that
they share
Дом,
милый дом

линолеума должен быть паркетным полом
. Вы делаете все это, но сомнения не
оставит вас . Вы начинаете двигаться
мебель вокруг спальне, потому что
туалетный столик блокирует свет.
Те,
кто живет воднокомнатной или двухкомнатной
квартире может чувствовать жалость к
тем, кто живет в домах. Они не имеют таких
проблем. В то же время у них есть много
привилегий : центральное отопление ,

My lovely place of living
I would like to give a talk about my native house. My family lives in an own house. It is big and nice. It has three floors. In the ground there are a large living room, a kitchen, a dining room and а bathroom. In the first floor there are four bedrooms for each member of our family and a bathroom. In the second floor there is a library, my father’s study and two guest’s rooms.
My room is light. It has two windows. There is a desk, a chair, a bed, two armchairs, a wardrobe in it. There are also four bookshelves and many different pictures on the walls of my bedroom, because I prefer reading and painting.
In front of the house we have a beautiful garden. There are a lot of trees and flowers. My mum likes to grow plants. There is a small swimming-pool in our yard, but we can use it only when the weather is hot. Also my dad has his own garage.
I love my home very much.
Моё любимое место для жизни
Мне бы хотелось рассказать о своем родном доме. Моя семья живёт в собственном доме. Он большой и симпатичный. И имеет три этажа. На первом этаже находится большая гостиная, кухня, столовая и ванная комната. На втором этаже расположены четыре спальни для каждого члена семьи и ванная. На третьем этаже есть библиотека, кабинет отца и две комнаты для гостей.
Моя комната светлая. В ней два окна. Там есть письменный стол, стул, кровать, два кресла и шкаф. Также на стенах спальни есть четыре книжных полки и много различных картин, потому что я предпочитаю чтение и рисование.
Перед домом у нас есть красивый сад. Там много деревьев и цветов. Моя мама любит выращивать растения. Во дворе находится небольшой плавательный бассейн, но мы можем использовать его, только когда погода жаркая. Еще у моего папы есть собственный гараж.
Я люблю свой дом очень сильно.
An unusual accomodation
Some years ago our school teacher gave us an interesting task. We had to write a project about unusual shapes of houses. At the lesson pupils presented their works. There were many bright pictures of different buildings.
My story was about a tree house. It seemed so simple to make, that I decided to realise my project. I asked my grandpa to help me. We chose an old tree in his backyard. My grandparents live in the country and have a wonderful garden. We were building it from wood for two weeks.
When stairs, a floor, walls and a roof were ready. I didn’t know how to furnished my new accomodation. My dad proposed me to make every piece of furniture from large logs. And I began to work. We did every part of the house by ourselves. It was very hard but really interesting experience.
Now the tree house looks usual outside but inside it’s amazing. It has only one big and light room. There are three windows, one of them is on the roof I can watch the night sky and stars lying on the bed, bookshelves, a wooden table and a chair.
There is a soft carpet on the floor. I needn’t too much. It’s a perfect place for spending summer holidays.
Необычное место обитания
Несколько лет назад наш учитель дала нам интересное задание. Мы должны были написать проект о домах с необычными формами. На уроке ученики представили свои работы. Было много ярких картинок различных зданий.
Моя история была о домике на дереве. Казалось таким простым сделать его, что я решил реализовать мой проект. Я попросил своего дедушку помочь мне. Мы выбрали старое дерево на заднем дворе. Мои бабушка и дедушка живут за городом и у них удивительный сад. Мы строили его из дерева в течение двух недель. Когда лестница, пол, стены и крыша были готовы, я не знал, как обставить моё новое место жительства. Мой папа предложил мне сделать каждую часть мебели из больших брёвен. И я приступил к работе. Мы сделали каждую часть дома сами. Это был очень трудный, но действительно интересный опыт.
Теперь дом на дереве выглядит обычным снаружи, но внутри он удивителен. Там только одна большая и светлая комната. В ней три окна, одно из них расположено на крыше и я могу наблюдать за ночным небом и звёздами, лёжа на кровати, книжные полки, деревянный стол и стул.
На полу лежит мягкий ковёр. Мне не нужно слишком много. Это идеальное место для проведения летних каникул.
Sweet home
There are a lot of different topics to discuss, but one of me favourite is about place where people can live. We live in a flat. It is not big, but I like it. There is a kitchen, two bedrooms (for me and my parents), a small living room and a bathroom. We have all necessary modern conveniences: hot and cold running water, gas, heating, internet connection, electricity, a refuse chute.
Our kitchen is bright, its walls are blue with pictures of vegetables and fruits. There is a table, four chairs, a fridge, a stove, some cupboards and a basin. My mum is a cook. I adore to help her with cooking meals. In the living room we have a cozy sofa, a coffee table in the middle of the room and a TV set. We usually spend our evenings together playing table games or watching films.
My bedroom is not large, but there is everуthing I need. I like to spend mу free time there. There is a comfortable bed with two soft pillows, a desk with a computer, an armchair and a small bookcase in it. I use a wood commode for my clothes. There is also a window with white curtains.
The building of flats has 7 storeys, that’s why there is a lift. Our apartment is on the 5th storey. The house is situated in the centre of the city. We can get anywhere quickly and without any problems, because there is a bus stop near the house. The district where we live is quiet and green.
May be our accommodation is not perfect, but this is my sweet home.
Милый дом
Существует много различных тем для обсуждения, но одна из моих любимых — это место, где могут жить люди. Мы живём в квартире. Она небольшая, но нравится мне. Есть кухня, две спальни (для меня и моих родителей), маленькая гостиная и ванная комната. У нас есть все современные удобства: горячая и холодная вода, газ, отопление, интернет-соединение, мусоропровод.
Наша кухня очень яркая, её стены голубые с картинками овощей и фруктов. Там есть стол, четыре стула, холодильник, плита, несколько посудных шкафов и раковина. Моя мама — повар. Я обожаю помогать её с приготовлением пищи. В гостиной комнате у нас стоит удобный диван, письменный столик в центре комнаты и телевизор. Мы обычно проводим наши вечера вместе, играем в настольные игры или смотрим фильмы.
Моя спальня небольшая, но в неё есть всё, что мне нужно. Мне нравится проводить своё свободное время там. Комфортная кровать с двумя мягкими подушками, письменный стол с компьютером, кресло и маленький книжный шкаф находятся в ней. Я использую деревянный комод для своих вещей. Также в комнате есть окно с белыми шторами.
В многоквартирном здании 7 этажей, вот почему здесь есть лифт. Наши апартаменты на 5-м этаже. Дом расположен в центре города. Мы можем быстро добраться куда — угодно и без каких-либо проблем, потому что рядом с домом находится автобусная остановка. Район, в котором мы живём, спокойный и зелёный.
Может быть, наше место обитания не идеальное, но это мой милый дом.
