My Family.

Let me introduce myself. My name is David Nelson. I was born in London but now I live in Liverpool. I am a TV news reporter. I work also for a small newspaper and I really like my work, because it is very interesting. I meet many different people every day.

I come from a large family. My father has a farm in the North of England and he is very busy with the work on his farm. My mother is a housewife. She has a lot of work to do about the house and she is very busy too. Every summer I go to see my parents and my relatives. I have two sisters and one brother. My elder sister is twenty-six. She is married and has a son Nick. He is six and he is in the first grade at school. My sister is a doctor, and her husband is a lawyer. It is a well-paid job and he makes a lot of money. My younger sister’s name is Nelly. She is twenty and is in her first year at Oxford University. My brother Ted who is fifteen lives with my parents. He is in high school. He wants to become an economist, but I’m afraid it is only a dream because he is rather lazy and my mom and dad have a lot of problems with him.

Now a few words about myself. I’m twenty-four. I am married and have a family of my own. My wife Jane is twenty-three, she is a school teacher but she doesn’t work now because we have a baby, she is only seven months old. So we are three in my family and we get on very well with each other.
