Its quite an old building, so recently my father had it renovated.
7、Now, it looks really nice. I live there with my parents. I have two older siblings, but they dont live at home now. As its quite a large house, theres plenty of room for the three of us. My older brother and sister have left some of their things in one of the rooms. All my life. My parents got the h
8、ouse when they married. I dont think that I will stay there for much longer though. I intend to study abroad and then get a job, possibly in Rome, possibly in another city. I love living there. Its in the countryside, so the air is fresh and the landscape is beautiful. Its close enough to the city t
9、o go there for a day you know, if I want to buy something or meet people there. The only disadvantage is that I have to stay with a friend overnight if we go out in the evening. Theres no way to get back to my home after about 8 in the evening. Ambitions My ambition in life is to become a surgeon. M
10、y parents have always been keen for me to study medicine. At first, I wasnt really interested in it, but later maybe they convinced me. To be honest, the main reason I would like to do this job is that it should give me the chance to make a fair amount of money. Then I could retire early to the coun
11、tryside. I think so. Im getting very good grades at school and Ive been provisionally accepted to Rome University, starting in September. It will certainly be very challenging, but I dont mind that. I know that I will have to study for several years, but it will be worth it. I dont think that Im ver
12、y ambitious, but I am a little. I want to be successful. I want to be fairly rich. I dont need millions of dollars, but I want to have a comfortable life. Im not ambitious in other aspects of my life, like sports. My family members are definitely ambitious. My parents want to achieve more in their l
13、ives and my siblings have both begun what we hope will be successful careers. My friends are also quite ambitious. They, like me, have big plans for their future careers. I think that my most ambitious friend is Antonio. He likes girls, but hes not so handsome or good at talking to them. We call him
14、 the most ambitious Romeo! He often tries to meet girls, but never seems to succeed. Places of interest Theres so much! Italy is famous for its historical sights, particularly from Roman times. Of course, I would recommend Rome, but not only because I am near from there. Almost every one of the old
15、streets is worth visiting for its historical value. If you go there, dont just go the famous sights. Take awalk around the back streets. Of course, another place to go is Venice. One place that I particularly like to go to in the spring or autumn is Lake Garda in the north of Italy. Theres the lake,
16、 mountains and forests. Its idyllic. Yes, I do. As I said, I go to Rome quite often to meet friends. We walk around, stopping here and there for a coffee or a glass of freshly squeezed juice. I go to Lake Garda at least once a year. My parents know someone there and we stay with them. Then they come
17、 to visit us once a year for their holiday. We usually sit outside and sip wine and eat snacks or go for a walk. I like visiting places of natural beauty most. I like old buildings too, but nature is so much better than anything man-made, if you ask me. I like anywhere with fine views of the surroun
18、ding countryside. Yes, I do. I have a big collection of photographs several hundred at least. Nowadays, its so easy with digital cameras. I take a camera with me every time I visit a place or when I go to see friends. I love going through my photographs occasionally to remind myself of the places I
19、have been to and the things I have done. 2 【正确答案】 My father is a civil servant. He started his career right at the bottom as a clerk, but now he is one of the top two or three people in the district. He deals with budgetary issues. My mother works as a music teacher. She mainly teaches piano, but sh
20、e also teaches a few violin classes. She is an accomplished player, but never wanted to play in an orchestra for some reason. Both of them are quite tall, so that explains my own height. They are both slim and have quite fair skin, which is a little unusual in my district. My father enjoys reading i
21、n his free time, or socialising with friends. There are often visitors at our house. My mother, luckily, enjoys cooking, so there is always something nice and tasty for guests when they call. Sometimes I wonder if they call to see my parents or to taste my mothers cooking. My parents used to go to t
22、he theatre a lot, but when the theatre in our town closed down, they . well, they dont go so often now. Perhaps once a month, they go to Rome, usually to see a play or an opera. They are both outgoing people and very thoughtful. Sometimes, when people ask them questions, it takes them a few seconds
23、to come up with a response. People who dont know them often wonder if they actually understood the question, but its just that they think very carefully before answering. 3 【正确答案】 I think that it has changed quite a lot. The families used to live together if not in the same house, at least in the sa
24、me town. Now, however, its quite normal for young people to live in a different town or even a different region to their parents. A lot of people criticise this development, but its really a result of better transportation and the fact that sometimes there are few opportunities for young people in t
25、he countryside. I dont think so. My parents never believed this, which is unusual in Italy. I think that each person should do whatever they can and try to share responsibilities, such as shopping, childcare, cooking and cleaning. I think it helps people to understand each other better. There are ce
26、rtainly some advantages in this. Other family members can help each other, particularly with looking after children. On the other hand, I wouldnt want to be too close to my parents or my wifes parents. They might try to take over your lives and tell you how to raise your kids and the life. I think t
27、hat families will get smaller and this will focus more attention on the child or children. This might be a good thing, because the parents should have more time and money for each child, but it could also be a bad thing if the child becomes spoilt. I think that in the future it will also become more
28、 common for family members to live in different parts of a country or even in different countries, Its not unusual today, but its not the norm. That will probably change. Good parents should take the time to get to know their children. They should be able to explain to them why something is right or
29、 wrong, not just tell them in a few simple words. They should also be good at keeping their children active. Children get bored very quickly, so they need to go out and see and do things like go to museums, amusement parks, zoos and spotting events. I think I will try to give my kids a little more f
30、reedom. My parents are a little imposing. They are not as bad as some other parents I have met, but sometimes I wish that they wouldnt try to control what I do so much. Their argument is that Im living in their house, but I think thats a weak argument. Anyway, VII be leaving home to go to university soon.
