My cherished dream is to visit Great Britain someday. At our English lessons we often "travel" throughout this country. There are a lot of wonderful sights there. And I would like to see everything with my own eyes.
And if I had such opportunity , first of all I would go to London to walk along the streets and hear the English speech and, I hope , that I would understand, what the English are speaking about . And, of course, I would try to communicate with them in their native language.
Then I would go to the Buckingham palace to see the real Queen there. I am sure she is as kind as my grandmother! And, of course, I would admire the Changing of the Guard. One day I saw this wonderful show on TV!
After that I would visit the London Tower and feed the ravens. They say, if the ravens fly away, the Tower will ruin?! Is it true?!Returning home, I would buy souvenirs to all my relatives and friends. And as for me the trip to Great Britain would be the greatest gift!
1) I would prefer to live in a new modern flat, because I want to have all modern conveniences such as gas supply, heating, cold and hot water etc. 2) as we are four in my family so that we need a flat with four rooms: one for my parents, the second for my granny, the third for me and a big light hall for everybody. 3) the kitchen is the room which we use most in my house, because my mum cooks tasty cakes and we like to sit together to drink tea, eat and talk. 4) my private room is my favourite room, because I spend much time there. 5) I decorate my room with photos on the walls and with flowers on the window-sills.
