MY FAMILY.
Family is extremely important in our life. In a way, our family is our life. A family is not just a group of relatives living in one apartment or house. A family consists of the closest and dearest people in the world, always ready to listen to you, always ready to share you joy and to provide help in need.
Our family is not very large: my parents , my brother, my grandparents and I. Sometimes my uncle and aunt visit with their daughter and son, who are my cousins. Our family is very friendly . Any time, we have a chance we try to do something together, to go to the country , play some kind of game for all or just sit at a table and tell each other funny stories .
I will start with my parents. My mother and father met at the university . They got married one year after graduation. They have been wife and husband for 19 years already. My mother's name is Emma Austen . She is forty -three years old, although she doesn’t look her age because she likes sports and goes swimming to a local pool three times a week. She is an interior designer. This is a very creative profession. Her job is to plan the decoration and furnishing of the interior of a house, an office, a shop, or an apartment. As you can imagine , she took professional care of our own apartment as well. Now, you can see immediately that every room and every corner is a result of her loving efforts. My mother is very tolerant to my mistakes and sometimes mischievous behavior .
My father’s name is Bob Austen. He is forty- five years old. My father is journalist. He works for a local newspaper which covers mainly economics and politics of our native city. His job requires a lot of unexpected trips so he doesn’t have any particular working schedule . He may go out early in the morning and come back well into the night . Especially in situations when he has to write a story for next morning’s issue of the paper . Still, I think that my father’s job is very interesting because you can meet lots of interesting people, you always have to find ways to organize your time better to manage to do all the things you have to. My father has a wonderful sense of humour and he is the best friend I can ever hope to have.
My brother’s name is Adam and he is a sixth -form pupil at the same school I used to go to. All my teachers say that Adam is as clever as I was. I do believe he is so because I see how much he is reading and doing all the home assignment with great interest . However, that doesn’t mean that Adam is always staying at home getting ready for classes . He is also interested in photography. Every day he tries to find some time to go out and take pictures of something interesting. His favourite ones are views of some natural landscapes. He has made quite a lot of interesting photos and hopes to organize an exhibition one day soon. I think his works will be welcomed by specialists and advise him to get ready for a professional career in photography. He has no objections.
My granddaddy is sixty-seven. He is retired now, but before retirement, he was in the military so his family had to move from one place to another rather often.
My grandma is sixty-five. She had always worked as a teacher before retirement. This made it easy for her to find jobs at any new place they would move to. My grandparents have been together for more than forty years and they still love each other. They are very wise and always helpful. I know for sure that they will be glad to help me whenever I need there assistance.
Ours is a very good family. When we come together for some family celebration it’s like you are among your best friends. The English have a proverb: “There is no place like home”. That’s quite true, but it’s the people who make a home comfortable and happy .

.. Cynics will say that this is because English have no "cuisine" themselves, but this is not quite the true. Vocabulary: to criticize - tasteless overcooked - ingredient - to invent - sauces - to disguise - spice herb - delicious - disappointing - to lend cuisine British Youth (2) Most 18 and 19 year-olds in Britain are quite independent people. English people say that children grow up more quickly now. Relationships within the British family are different now. Children have more freedom to make their own decisions. For example, children aged 13 may be employed part time in Great Britain. Age 15 is legally a "young person" not a "child". Age 16 is a school leaving age. They can leave home, drive a moped, marry with "parents' consent" buy beer. Age 17 can drive a car. Age 18 can vote, get married, drink in pubs. Education is a very important part in the life of British youth. One can't become an independent person without it

are slighted by other men. You had better return to your partner and enjoy her smiles, for you are wasting your time with me." Mr. Bingley followed his advice. Mr. Darcy walked off; and Elizabeth remained with no very cordial feelings toward him. She told the story, however, with great spirit among her friends; for she had a lively, playful disposition, which delighted in anything ridiculous. The evening altogether passed off pleasantly to the whole family. Mrs. Bennet had seen her eldest daughter much admired by the Netherfield party. Mr. Bingley had danced with her twice, and she had been distinguished by his sisters. Jane was as much gratified by this as her mother could be, though in a quieter way. Elizabeth felt Jane's pleasure. Mary had heard herself mentioned to Miss Bingley as the most accomplished girl in the neighbourhood; and Catherine and Lydia had been fortunate enough never to be without
