My house

Our house is in a quiet neighbourhood in Oakridge. Every time I walk into it, I feel animmediate sense of warmth and security.

It is the most noticeable house in the street because of its colourful garden. There is a long driveway which leads to the house, and even beforeyou enter through the old oak front door you can hearthe sound of the happy voices of the large family that lives within.

The front door opens into a spacioushall. Downstairs there's a bright kitchen with an open fireplace and a large wooden table where we all sit chatting for hours on win­ter evenings. The air is usually filled with the delicioussmells of my mother's cooking. Next to the kitchen is the living room, which is usually untidy as this is the place where we go to relax, watch TV or listen to music. As you go upstairs you can see doors lead­ing to five bedrooms and two bathrooms. My bedroom has an antiquefour-poster bed and a dressing table next to the window. This is where I wake up every morning to the delightful sound of birds singing and the refreshingsmell of coffee from downstairs.

When my friends come to my house they often describe it as a dream house, but to me it's just "home sweet home".

 

 

New York

New York City isn't a city that can eas­ily be ignored even by the most demanding visitor. Located on the east coast of the United States with a population of over ten million people, it is the destination of thousands of visitors who come every year to experience the excitement of one of the busiest cities in the world.

The streets of New York are incredibly noisy, with the sounds of car horns beeping, people shouting andpolice car sirens wail­ing.Amazingly tall skyscrapers rise up everywhere.

The most exciting thing about New York is how much there is to see and do there. For sightseers there is the Statue of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge and Central Park, while lovers of culture can visit the theatres of Broadway or some of the city's hundreds of art galleries. Alternatively, if you area sports fan you can even catcha game of baseball at Yankee Stadium. The night life in New York is equally brilliant, with a wide variety of restaurants, bars and nightclubs to choose from.

New York is a lively and exciting city to visit with something for everyone, and is recommended to anyone seeking fun, vari­ety and adventure.
