Эталон ответа:

Our family is not very large. I have a father, a mother, a brother and a sister. We all live together in a new flat in one of the industrial districts of Saint – Petersburg.

My father is Alexey Ivanovich is 45 years old. He is a tall and well-built man with short black hair and grey eyes. He works at a big automobile plant as an engineer. He likes his work and spends most of his time there. By character my father is a quiet man, while my mother is energetic and talkative. Her name is Nina Petrovna. She is a senior accountant at a firm. She is intelligent, patient and always ready to help. I’ve got good relations with my mum. She is always interested in what I do, and I can always ask her for advice. I love her very much trough I love my father not less.

My sister’s name is Asya. She has blue eyes and lovely fair hair. She is a very good-looking girl. Asya is three years younger than me. She is a pupil of the 11th form. She does well at school and gets only good and excellent marks. Asya has a good sense of humour and is very popular with her friends at parties.

My name is Tanya. I’m 17 years old. I resemble my mother in appearance but take after my father in nature. People say I’m an easy-going person. I have lots of friends around me. They make my life more interesting and enjoyable. My best friend's name's Nina. We made friends a few years ago. We are of the same age. Nina is a tall slim girl. She has got dark hair, large dark eyes, a straight nose and thin lips. She is very honest and just, understanding and kind. I trust her a lot and I'm sure that I can rely on her in any situation. We spend a lot of time together. We often watch video or listen to music. Sometimes we go to the cinema or to the theatre, or walk around the centre of Saint-Petersburg, visiting small cafes, museums, art galleries, shops. We talk for hours about all sorts of things (politics, love, teachers and girls). We discuss films, television programs, books. I miss Nina when we don't see each other for a long time. Without her I would feel lonely and uncomfortable. Our friendship helps me feel strong and sure of myself.

Our family is very united. We like to spend time together and help our mother about the house. In the evenings we watch TV, read books and newspapers, listen to music or just discuss everyday problems. Our parents don’t always agree with us but they take into consideration our opinion. All of us like to spend our week-ends out of town. We often go to the village to see our grandparents. They are old-age pensioners now but prefer to live in the country.

I also have some other relatives: uncles, aunts, cousins and many friends. We are happy when we are together. It is really very important to have a good family where all people are tactful, helpful and respect each other.
