Reading I term (form 7)

1/My cousin lives in this home with her mother, father and grandma. It’s in a quiet part of a large city. The rooms inside it are not big, and it is not the best place for very tall people. But my cousin likes living there because she can travel and be at home at the same time! I love visiting them. I sleep on a sofa in the sitting room because the bedrooms are so small.

 2/My brother and his wife live on the top floor of an apartment block in the city centre. It’s a very attractive apartment and they really like it. They have a balcony outside the living room, and they often sit there in the evenings to eat their dinner. Their home is small, but from the windows you can see all of the city and the mountains and forest a long way away. We live near them, so I often visit them on Saturday mornings.

3/My grandfather built this house with his father 50 years ago. It is the first house my grandparents lived in after they got married in 1975, and they still live there. My mum lived there when she was a girl. It’s a big, quiet house, and it’s cosy and warm in the winter when it’s cold outside. The garden is really big and is full of trees. My grandparents love living in the house and I enjoy staying there. I spend two weeks there every summer.
