TEXT HOME. • They say, a person’s home is a reflection of their own character. It is a place to work, to relax, and to meet friends. My family lives in our own house. It is a small cottage in the suburbs of our town. It consists of the ground and the first floor and has five rooms in it. There is also a garage for our car, a small garden with beautiful flowers and fruit trees around the house.
• If you come to our house, you enter our hall first. Here you may take off your coat and shoes. The floor is covered with a fitted carpet, so you will feel comfort¬able in our house. There is a kitchen, a bathroom, and a living room. We have dreamed for a long time about such a big kitchen. There is a big window and small curtains here, so the sunshine fills it, and makes it cozy. There is a gas cooker, a refrigerator, a cupboard, a sink unit and a big round table here. We gather, together every morning in our kitchen and have breakfast and wish each other a nice day.
• When we have dinner with our guests, we usually have it in our living room is the biggest room in the house. The full-length curtains, elegant furniture and a big thick carpet on the floor make the room the best place to relax, watch TV and communicate with friends. The living-room suite, which consists of a cupboard, a bookcase, a sofa, and three armchairs, is arranged around three walls. A big colour TV-set and a video system near the window can transform the room into a cinema. We often watch here our favourite films.
• My favourite place in our house is my bedroom, which is also my study. Every member of our family has furnished their rooms according to their own taste. As for me, I have chosen modern furniture, which doesn’t take much place and can be easily transformed. The bedroom suite consists of a bed, a bedside table and a wardrobe. There is also a small desk with a lap top on it. The window overlooks our garden. I often sit by the window and watch a beautiful sunset.
