The Scottish Highlands contain some of the most (MAGNIFY)magnificent scenery in Europe, and the (LAND)_11__of northern Scotland form one of the (TRUE)_[22_ 'wild' areas of Britain.

(HOW)__[41_, many of the places in the Highlands have not always been as (DESERT)_[57__ as they are today. Many people left their small houses (called crofts) in the eighteenth and (NINE)_[6]_ centuries to find work in the large towns.

I had a terrible day last Friday.  It was around 9 in the morning and I was alone as all of my family had already gone to work. I'd had breakfast but I hadn't got dressed yet.
I went into the kitchen and saw that the rubbish bin needed emptying. So I picked up the bin liner and went to take it outside. I opened the front door and went along the corridor to the place where you leave your rubbish. As I was putting the bag down I felt a draught of air and heard a bang. When I came back to my flat, I saw that the door was closed.  The wind had blown it shut. I put my hand in the pocket of my pyjamas, but I had left my keys inside. So I went down to the security man to phone my husband. But they told me he had gone to China for the day! I tried ringing my neighbour's door bell, but they had already gone to work. So I had to wait all day in the corridor outside my flat!

Дом моей мечты

Hello! My name is Almira. I live in Almetyevsk. I have got a two-room apartment in the center of the city. But all people dream about their own house with all conditions, so do I.

The house of my dream must be a comfortable well-planned two-storeyed cottage. Not so large of course. It should be situated in a quite ecologically clean place or street. In front of the house I want a green lawn and flowers to be. And also a big shaggy dog should live in his booth in our yard. There must be a large kitchen, a pantry, a dining-room, a cosy sitting-room with a fireplace and big windows on the ground floor.

There should be bedrooms with the own separated bathrooms on the first floor, and somebody`s study upstairs. And my room should be in the garret. And a balcony also should be.

Also I want to have a modern and quite new furniture. But the main thing that I do not want to do is to pay a lot of money for the house and the furniture for many years before I can call this house my own.

There should be a lot of trees, a pond or a fountain. It is necessary if my house be strong and well-defended with a beautiful fence.

Перевод:

Здравствуйте! Меня зовут Альмира. Я живу в Альметьевске. У меня есть двухкомнатная квартира в центре города. Но все люди мечтают о собственном доме со всеми условиями, я тоже.

Домом  моей мечты должен быть удобный хорошо спланированный двухэтажный коттедж. Конечно, не такой и ольшой. Он должен быть расположен в тихом экологически чистом месте или на улицу. В передней части дома я хочу, чтоб были зеленый газон и цветы.  А также большая лохматая собака должна жить в своей будке в нашем дворе. Там должна быть большая кухня, кладовая, столовая, уютная гостиная с камином и большими окнами на первом этаже.

Там должны быть спальни с  собственными отдельными ванными комнатами на первом этаже, и чей-то`кабинет наверху. И моя комната должна быть на чердаке. Там также должен быть балкон.

Также я хочу иметь современную новую мебель. Но главное, что я не хочу делать,  так это выплачивать много денег за дом и мебель в течение многих лет, прежде чем я могу назвать этот дом собственным.

Там должно быть много деревьев, пруд или фонтан. Это необходимо, если мой дом будет  хорошо защищенным и с красивым забором.
