You have received a letter from your pen friend tim. he writes: "…my parents want to buy a semi-detached house. i want it to have a large lounge, a kitchen, a study downstairs and six bedrooms upstairs. i don’t want an open fireplace. i prefer to have central heating. we have two cars, so we need at least two parking places or garages…” write to tim (100-140 words). ask him questions about the new house and give your opinion and/or advice. : *

Вы получили письмо от Вашего друга по переписке Тима. Он пишет: "...Мои родители хотят купить двухквартирный дом. Я хочу, чтобы в нём была большая гостиная, кухня, и кабинет на первом этаже, и шесть спален на втором этаже. Я не хочу открытый камин. Я предпочитаю иметь центральное отопление. У нас две машины, поэтому нужно как минимум два парковочных места или гаража..."

Dear Tim,

Thank you for your letter. I was very glad to get it. Great news!  Your family  

is going to buy a semi-detached house! When are you going to buy it?

It goes without saying that the lounge should be large.  As for the cars, I have the same opinion as yours: there should be two garages or one but big enough for two parking places. I think you'll soon get a car too. Do you speak about the study for yourself or for your father? You have mentioned six bedrooms. Do you want to have a room of your own and a separate bedroom?  In any case, you are lucky to move to a new house soon. Are you going to buy your new house in the same district or somewhere else? Write back soon. Keep well. Best regards to your parents and sister.

Best wishes,

Alex
