About myself
My name is Marina Suvorova. I am 15. I was born on the 5 th of March, 1985 in Rostov on - Don. Now I live in Rostov with my parents and my grandmother.
My family is not very large. We have five people in our family. My fathers name is
Igor Petrovich. He is forty years old. He is a doctor and he works at a hospital. My
mothers name is Lyudmila Leonidovna. She is thirty nine years old. She is a housewife.
My younger sister is a pupil. She is in the seventh form. My grandmother lives with us.
She doesn’t work. She is a pensioner. I love my family. We are all friends and we love
each other.
I have one aunt and two uncles. Their children are my cousins.
We live in a big flat in a new house. There are four rooms in our flat: a living room, a
study, a kitchen, a bathroom and two bedrooms. We have all modern conveniences:
gas, hot water, running water, electricity and telephone.
I have my duties about the house. I must go shopping. I help my Mother to clean the
rooms. Its not difficult for me. I like our home to be clean and tidy. I am a student of
the college now. We have many good teachers at our college. I try to be a good pupil and
I do well in all subjects. But my favourite subject is English. I spend much time on it. I
like reading.
I like detective stories but I prefer to read historical novels or modern
writers.
I have many friends. Many of them are my classmates. We spend much time together,
go for a walk, talk about lessons, music and discuss our problems.
I like to listen to modern music, but sometimes I like to listen to some classical music.
My favourite composer is Tchaikovsky. I havent much time to watch TV but sometimes
I spend an hour or two watching an interesting film or a news program. In the evening I
often read newspapers or an interesting book. I like fresh air and exercises, but I have not
much time to go in for sports.

My friend
I have many friends. Most of them are my former classmates but my best friend is
Peter. He is fifteen. Now he is a student of a college. He is a good student because he
studies hard and is very diligent. He wants to become a good specialist and he is
especially interested in computers. He often helps me with my English lessons and
Im grateful to him for that.
Now I want to tell you about his appearance. He is rather tall and strong. He has an
oval face, straight nose, dark-brown hair, blue eyes and a nice smile. People find him
good-looking.
Peter goes in for sports. He plays football and basketball well. His basketball team is
very popular at the college.
We made friends with Peter when he and his family moved to our house. We have
very much in common: we like the same music, we both like reading. In general my
friend is a very interesting person: he is intelligent and well-read.
But the most important thing is that Peter is honest and kind. I can fully rely on him and
trust everything to him. Peter has a great sense of humour and I like to spend my free
time with him.
I have another friend. Her name is Natasha. She is a schoolgirl and she lives next door.

My hobby
What is a hobby? It is what you like to do when you have free time. We choose a
hobby according to our character and taste. When we have a hobby our life
becomes more interesting.
Very often our hobby helps us to choose our future profession because we learn a
lot of things.
Many people are interested in music. They collect records. Others like to read
and collect books. People living in cities and towns like to be closer to nature and
they spend their free time in the country.
Some of us go on hikes, some like to work in their gardens, take photographs or
knit.
For example, gardening and growing roses is the most common hobby among
Englishmen.
Both grown-ups and children are fond of playing different computer games. It
has become one of the numerous hobbies.
I have got a hobby too.
My name is Nastya. Sometimes I have got some free time. As my hobby is
cooking I like to make cakes are very tasty, but I like pies best of all. I’ll tell you
how I make pies with cabbage.
First of all I take a head of cabbage, cut and put it into a frying-pan. Then I take
carrot and peel it. By the way I have a very comfortable grate carrot, onion using
my favourite grater. I put grated carrot into the frying-pan, then I salt cabbage and
carrot to my taste, mix them and add some water. Then I stew these vegetables in
the frying-pan. I usually buy some paste for my pies.
I cut up paste, roll it and make small pies. Then I put pies with stewed cabbage into
the oven. It takes twenty minutes to bake them my parents and friends like to eat
my pies. I advise you to make such pies and I hope that you’ll like them too.
