Text 2. The House of an Englishman

 

.

Many families in London live in flats, but most people live in their own houses in the suburbs. Most of London’s suburban houses consist of two floors, the ground floor and the first floor. All in all there are six or seven rooms in the house.

On the ground floor there’s a dining-room, a sitting-room, a kitchen and a hall. In the hall you can see a stand for hats, coats and umbrellas. A staircase leads from the hall to the landing on the first floor. On this floor there are four bedrooms, a bathroom and a lavatory. On the top of the roof there are three chimneys.

In front of the house they have a small garden, in which they grow flowers: roses, tulips and so on. At the back of the house there’s a much larger garden, a lawn and some fruit trees. There’s also a vegetable garden where they grow all kinds of vegetables, such as potatoes, cabbages, cauliflowers, onions and tomatoes.

At the side of the house there is a garage, where they can keep their car. The garden is enclosed by a fence, with a gate in it.

1. Oleg’s daily meals

Oleg isn’t particular about his meal. He usually has a quick breakfast in the morning. It’s usually a couple of boiled or fried eggs and a cup of strong sweet tea or white coffee without sugar. After that he runs off to the University. He can do for weeks without lunch. But if he has enough time he goes to the buffet and buys a cup of tea or juice with a bun.

For dinner he has something substantial. It usually consists of 3 courses. For the first course he has some soup (cabbage, noodle or rice one), borsch or milk soup. Second course includes fried fish, cutlets, beefsteaks or chops with potatoes or cereals. He prefers boiled buckwheat or rice and some meat and salad. For dessert he drinks compote or tea with a bun.

As for supper he has something light: some salad, a slice of sausage or cheese and bread and sour milk. It is bad to eat much before bedtime.
