Pat and ronald thomas (not live) in a caravan, but their home (travel) more miles than any other house in britain! their house (make) from a pair of victorian railway carriages, and they (live) there for ten years. ‘i (not want) to live in a train at first,’ admits pat, ’but when i (see) that this train had a garden with a stream, i just (fall) in love with it. we (buy) it from an old lady, and she already (do) a lot of work on it. but there is a lot left to do and we still (make) improvements.’ visitors often (surprise) to see how spacious the house is. all the dividing walls (remove), so now the rooms are about fifteen metres long. pat and ronald (pay) £68,000 for their house. recently they (offer) more than £100,000 for it, but it’s not for sale. ‘i (discover) more and more about the history of this train all the time,’ says ronald. ‘it (build) in swindon between 1855 and 1875. we (work) so hard to make it beautiful that i don’t think we ever (sell) it,’ he admits. ‘i hope it (remain) in our family forever’.

millions of people are fond of watching.  there are many different tv programmes, shows, soups, interesting films,  advertisements, news, plays to watch.

my parents spend a lot of time watching everything. of course, sometimes they show something interesting but not very often.   if somewhere something important or dangerous takes place journalists will report these events on tv, but their endless soups are awful.

other people say that television is becoming a national disease. i agree with them. 

lots of my friends are fond of watching but i have to confess, i hate tv programmes. i think it's waste of time. and i think that they damage their eyes, become lazy, put on their weight and have no time to do sports or to read books. 

i prefer doing sports, playing games in the open air and taking part in different sport competitions.

миллионы людей любят смотреть телевизор. есть много различных телевизионных программ, шоу, сериалов, интересных фильмов, рекламных роликов, новостей, пьес, которые можно посмотреть по телевизору. мои родители проводят много времени, смотря все подряд. конечно, иногда по телевизору показывают что-то интересное, но не часто. если где-то что-то важное или опасное происходит, журналисты сообщат об этих событиях по телевидению, но их бесконечные сериалы - это ужасно. другие люди говорят, что телевидение становится национальной болезнью. я с ними согласен. многие мои друзья любят смотреть телевизор, но я должен признаться, я ненавижу телевизионные программы. я думаю, что это пустая трата времени. и я думаю, что они портят зрение, становятся ленивыми, увеличивают свой вес и не имеют времени, чтобы заниматься спортом или читать книги. я предпочитаю заниматься спортом, играть в игры на открытом воздухе и принимать участие в различных спортивных соревнованиях.
