I live in Vasilevka. It is a nice small village in Russia. People live in one-storey houses. There is a school and a hospital in my village. There is also a shop. We can buy all we need there. There is a forest nearby. It is very beautiful and big. We like to go for a walk there. And often we have a picnic in the forest. I like pleasant smell of leaves and flowers.
But a river is the most important place for us. We can spend all day long swimming and playing in summer. But last summer it was very hot and our river almost disappeared. In winter we like to ski. There are always a lot of snow in our village. It is very difficult to overcome all the snow hills in the streets!
Even if Vasilevka is small and there are little things we can do, I like my village
1. (Did you go) anywhere yesterday? – We (went) to a party. Sheila (had) birthday yesterday. We (had) a wonderful time. – Really? It (was) so good? Who (showed up)? – Oh, all sort of people. It’s a pity you (weren't) there. 2. He (will come) to see me next year. 3. What (are you doing) at the moment? Can you help me with my project? – Oh, I’m busy just now. I (am fixing) my mixer. But if you can wait I (will help) - Yes, I can. 4. What (is Tom doing)? Why (isn't he practising)? – He (is having) some rest. 5. The stranger (climbed) into his car and (drove away), and when he (noticed) later that his speedometer (indicated) seventy-five, he (laughed) at himself but (didn't slow down)
