I live in a new nine-storeyed block of f_____ s in Shevchenko Street. In front of the h_____e there is a children’s p_______d and a small garden. We like to spend our time there. Our f_____t is on the fourth floor. It is very comfortable. We have all modern conveniences, such as central h_____g, electricity, gas, clod and hot running w_____r and a telephone.

There are three r _____s in our flat: a living room and two bedrooms. Our living room is the largest in the flat. It is nicely furnished. Against the wall you can see a nice cupboard. There is a colour T___t in the corner. In the opposite corner there is a s_____a and two armchairs. The piano is on the r_____t. There are two pictures above the piano. And there is a bookcase near it. We are fond of books and have plenty of them at h_____e. On the floor we have a nice thick carpet. The curtains on the w_____w match the wallpaper. All these makes the r_____m cosy.

Our bedrooms are also very n_____e and cosy. The parent’s bedroom is larger than the children’s. There are two beds, a bedside table, some c_____s and a wardrobe in it. There is a lovely carpet on the floor between the beds. The children’s bedroom is just across the c_____r on the right. Here you can see two sofa-beds where my sister and I sleep at n_____t and have a rest in the day-time. There is also a writing-table, two chairs and some bookshelves here. We use our bedroom as a study where we do our homework. In the corner of the r_____m there is a small t______l with a computer on it. We all enjoy listening to music and playing games.

Our kitchen is rather large. There is a gas-stove, a refrigerator and a c_____b in which we keep cups, plates and all our dishes. The kitchen serves us as a dining-room/ But when we receive guests or have our family celebrations we have the meals in the l_____g-room.

We are h_____y to have such a nice flat and try to keep it clean.
