Task 2. Work in pairs by putting questions to each other.

MY FAMILY

I would like to tell you some words about my family. My family is neither large nor small. There are 4 of us. They are my mother, my father, my sister and me. But I can say that it is large, because it also consists of 2 pets – a cat and a dog. They are members of our family as well. We like them very much. And now some words about each of them. My mother is Elena Vladimirovna Vlasenko. She is a housewife. She has a lot of work about the house. We all like her and care about her. My father is Alexander Nikolayevich Vlasenko. He is 45. He is a driver. My younger sister Vera is a schoolgirl. I am very fond of her. I try to help her every time she needs it. Our family is very friendly. We like to gather in the evening and watch TV-set or discuss day problems.

Is you family large?

What does it consist of?

Is your father older than your mother?

Do you have a sister or a brother?

Are you fond of your sister?

What is your father?

Are you great friends?

Task 2. Work in pairs. Put questions to each other about your families.
