The Hill family is planning to move into a new house soon. Their present home is nice, comfortable and has a big backyard, but it is too far away from Mr. Hill's work. He is tired of the long commute to New York every day. He usually leaves home at seven o'clock in the morning, to be at his office by nine. He's never home before eight-thirty in the evening.
Moreover, the present house is not large enough for all the members of the family and the children are sharing their bedrooms. Also in the morning they have to make a line or take turns to use the bathroom. In the present house there is a big backyard for the children and the dog but there are just three bedrooms and two bathrooms, the kitchen is a little old fashioned and the living room furniture is too old. Because of this, Mr. and Mrs. Hill bought a new house in Hackensack, New Jersey which is closer to New York. They took a long time to find a new house for the family. They went to many other neighborhoods and towns to choose the best option. The new house will be located in a very nice neighborhood. There will be five bedrooms and a modern kitchen. The family will have a smaller backyard but a larger living room with more modern furniture. Each child will have their own bedroom. They will be more comfortable and happy. Yesterday during dinner Mrs. Hill gave the good news to her family and her children made a lot of questions about the big house. Mom: We finally found a new house. Walter: Seriously? Where is it? Mom: It's on a beautiful street in Hackensack. Tania: And how's the house mom? What about the bedrooms? Mom: There are five bedrooms, four bathrooms, the living room, the dining room, the kitchen and basement. There's also a laundry room, and a little backyard for the dog. Walter: A little backyard? Where will I practice for my soccer games? Mom: You should go to the park of the neighborhood. But, the good thing is that you will have your own bedroom. You won't share your space with your little brother anymore. Tania: That sounds good. And, will we continue sharing the bathroom? Mom: No, there are four bathrooms. One downstairs on the first floor, another in the main room, and the others are in the bedrooms. Walter: Ok. And when will we move? Mom: We will move the next month. We have to pack our stuff and make a garage sale. Tania: I love that idea. When can we see the house? Mom: I will take you tomorrow after class to see it. |
