MY
FAMILY
Let me introduce myself. My name is Alexander Orlov. Orlov is my
surname.
Now I am a first-year student at the Institute.
My parents have two more children besides me. Thus I have got an elder
brother and a younger sister. My sister Helen is just out of school. She is
seventeen. She is a pretty girl with brown hair and soft dark-brown eyes. Her
dream is to become a pianist.
My brother, whose name is Michael, is eight years my senior. He is
twenty – seven already. He is a builder. He is married and has a family of his
own. They are four in the family. He has a wife and two children – a son and a
daughter. They are twins. They are lovely little children with golden hair and
dark-blue eyes. They are always full of joy and gaiety. His wife’s name is
Nina. She is a surgeon by profession. They are not in Rubtsovsk. They are in
the Far East.
My parents are not old at all. Father is fifty, and Mother is three
years his junior. My grandparents are already pensioners but they are still
full of life and energy. They have a house in the country. Aunt Mary is with
them.
She is a pleasant-looking woman of about forty. Uncle Nick, her husband,
is a librarian. He is a clever man but a little unpractical. Aunt Mary, on the
other hand, is very practical and full of common sense.
They have a son. He is my cousin. Peter is nineteen, tall, and a fine
manly fellow. He is at the Institute and is studying to be an engineer. He is a
clever, hard-working student, a first-class footballer, and a good runner. He
is strong, quiet and thoughtful like his father.
