Text: About My Family and Myself Grammar: The Present Indefinite Tense. Possessive Case of Nouns Active Vocabulary
Read the text and answer the questions. About My Family and Myself My name is Oleg and I am a student of Ivano-Frankivsk National Medical University. It was my dream to study here as I always wanted to devote my life and profession to medicine. I think that family is the most important thing for everyone and it should consist of people who always love you, support you, and help you. As for me, it is impossible to live without family. Now, a few words about my family which is rather big. I have my father, mother, sister, and grandparents. My father is a plastic surgeon; he helps people become more beautiful. He is a professional. My father does his work very well and gets a good salary. My mother is a housewife. She looks after the house and us, the kids. Mother makes very tasty breakfasts and dinners. Our mother is very kind, but strict to us; she arranges our free time, so that we cannot just fool around. My parents have been married for 20 years. They have much in common, but they have different views on music, books, and films. For example my father likes horror films and my mother likes soap operas. My father is fond of tennis. My mother doesn’t go in for sports. My younger sister Mary is finishing school this year. But she has not yet made up her mind about her future profession. On the one hand she loves animals and can become a vet, on the other hand she is very good at mathematics and knows some complex computer programmes. So, she must think seriously over her future possibilities. Our grandparents are scientists. Grandfather is a historian and grandmother is a linguist. They deliver lectures in different universities and write serious books. We all get along with each other very well. As for me, I have always loved music. I can play the guitar and piano very well. I love all kinds of music, but mostly I prefer rock. It’s a custom for our family to discuss things during the meals. I must say that all of us are not alike in tastes, manners and characters. But as a matter of fact we get along well with each other. We usually show our interest in what others think and do. We share each other’s joy and sorrow. We never remain indifferent to what happens to others. Everyone in our family is rather busy, but we always look forward to a possibility to spend some time together. My family means a lot to me.
