Дорогой Петя!

Сегодня у меня есть немного свободного времени, и я могу наконец ответить на твое письмо. У нас теперь удобная квартира в многоэтажном доме на пятом этаже. В доме есть лифт. В нашей квартире четыре комнаты. Моя комната направо от входа. В ней мало мебели: письменный стол, два кресла и диван-кровать. На стенах полки с книгами, так как я люблю читать(to be fond of reading). У меня около двухсот английских книг. Я должен много читать, чтобы овладеть английским языком.

Рядом (next to) с моей комнатой — комната родителей. Она лучше моей, но не такая солнечная. У них очень много фотографий на стенах, так как фотографии — любимое занятие (a hobby) моего отца. Третья комната — столовая. Она такая же большая, как комната родителей, но светлее, и на стенах меньше фотографий. Там у нас телевизор, и, когда мы свободны, мы смотрим все интересные передачи.

Рядом со столовой — комната сестры. Она самая большая, так как их теперь трое: Мария, Леонид и маленькая Катюша. Сейчас Катюша у меня в комнате — сидит на ковре и играет со своими куклами и игрушечными животными. Здесь медведи, волки, олени, лисицы, коровы, гуси — целый зоопарк!

29

Приезжай к нам и посмотри на нее сам. Мы все очень хотим (to be eager) тебя видеть.

Спасибо тебе большое за книгу. Она очень интересная и совсем не трудная. Мы тебя ждем!

Большой привет родителям. Твой Коля.
