I wrote his tale. It's called Cinderella. This story is unusual. Once a rich girl, hired a housekeeper in his house. He was in France. But the housekeeper had lived in Russia. She went to France. Rich girl named Jenny, and poor housekeeper named Ellie. Ellie once saw on plasma TV advertising: Looking for a girl to go to the magic country to work as a saleswoman magic beans. Al!if they were glad, and when collected things, Jenny began to yell at her: Oh, truly! You don't like it here? So pack your bearings, and go wherever you want! Ellie left. Thought will be missed, but this desire is gone. Ellie came. On the way she met a nice guy. His name was Robert. They fell in love from the first sight. Then they got married. And Jenn to always stayed in his house in France alone

We have four rooms in our house. But my favourite one is our study which is the biggest room. It is full of wonderful things: books, pictures, collections of coins, TV and a computer. There is a very old writing table in the study. My great granddad bought it in the beginning of the century when he was a student. It is very old, solid and comfortable. There is a sofa in the corner of the room and next to it a beautiful old standard lamp, which is on the carpet. There is a piano near the window. At night when it gets dark I like to turn off the light, turn on the standard lamp and play the piano. When the standard lamp is on, the study looks like a fairy-land. I often sit in the old armchair and dream of pleasant things. I love this room very much. However, my brother likes our living-room. He has got a very good stereo system there. He plays his music very loudly in this room. This room is not very comfortable. There is a fireplace in it, but nevertheless it’s a little cold in winter. There is also an armchair, a sofa and some shelves with compact discs and cassettes in them. My brother spends much time in this room.
