Form 6. Topic “ My Flat”.

         I live in St. Petersburg, Russia. I am proud of my city because it is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Its fascinating sights and hospitable people make it unique. 

          As most Russians, I live with my family in a small flat in a quiet district not far from the city centre. My flat is in a typical nine-storied building. I live on the seventh floor.

           I think that our flat is comfortable as we have got all modern conveniences. The usual modern conveniences are: central heating, electricity, gas, cold and hot running water. Winters in Russia are long and cold but it is always warm in our flat because of central heating. As it is dark outdoors in the morning, we always turn on electricity when we get up and turn it off when we leave the flat. 

          My mother always cooks tasty food on the gas stove and after meals we use a dish-washer for cups, plates, spoons and forks. We all take care of our flat to make it clean. My father cleans the carpets with a vacuum cleaner; my mother waters the flowers and washes our clothes in the washing-machine. As to me, I tidy my room every weekend. That is why our flat always looks nice and cosy.
