1 I am an engineer of Avtoexport. 2   Avtoexport. does business with a lot of ... countries. 3 We sell cars,trucks and other machines to different countrics of the world. 4 Our office is on the fifth floor. 5 It is a large room with three windows in it. 6 There are  seven desks in office with a telephone on every desk. 7 You can also see four book-cases in  our room. There are a lot of  letters,  catalogues and Journals in them. 8 Many foreign businessmen come to our office every day. But we do not receive  them in this room. There is another room for it. 9 Our  engineer discuss pricess, terms of  payment and delivery and a lot of other questions with them. All our  engineer know one or two foreign languages and they can have talks with foreign businessmen in languages.

I don't like to be engaged in house affairs, but it's necessary. Our apartment is large, and our mother can't do everything alone. Of course, it is boring to do household chores, but I do not like to quarrel and upset my parents. I hate washing the dishes. I don't like water the flowers, but it must be done. We distributed the responsibilities at home, and it certainly becomes easier. My sister and I are responsible for cleaning of the rooms. Twice a week we sweep the floor, water our mother's flowers in the pots. It seems they are everywhere: in the kitchen, in the rooms, in the bedroom, in the boxes on the floor. My brother takes out the rubbish and keeps order on the balcony. The carpets are daddy's responsibility. But we enter the kitchen, only to have breakfast-lunch-dinner. This is our mother's territory. We believe that by doing things together, we are real power. A family.
Я не люблю заниматься домашними делами, но это необходимо. Наша квартира большая, и наша мама не может делать все в одиночку. Конечно, это скучно заниматься домашними делами, но я не люблю ссориться и расстраивать моих родителей. Я ненавижу мыть посуду. Мне не нравится поливать цветы, но это нужно делать. Мы распределили обязанности по дому, и конечно, стало легче. Моя сестра и я ответственные за уборку комнат. Два раза в неделю мы подметаем полы, поливаем мамины цветы в горшках. Кажется, они у нас везде: на кухне, в комнатах, в спальне, в коробках, на полу. Мой брат выносит мусор и следит за порядком на балконе. Ковры - это папина обязанность. Но мы заходим на кухню только завтракать-обедать-ужинать. Это мамина территория. Мы верим, что делая всё вместе, мы реальная сила. Семья.
