Домашні улюбленці. Pets
Багато людей люблять тварин. І багато хто тримають тварин у будинку. Таких тварин ми називаємо домашніми улюбленцями. Це кішки, собаки, хом’ячки, білі миші і так далі. Вони знають своїх господарів і люблять їх. І усі вихованці мають потребу в хазяйській турботі і любові. Собаки можуть стати гарними друзями самотнім людям, кішки можуть зці-ляти деякі хвороби і поганий настрій. Я дуже люблю кішок.
У мене є вдома кішка. Її кличуть Аліса. Їй чотири роки, але вона невеликого зросту. В Аліси дуже красиві очі, і коли в кімнаті темно, вони блищать. Вона
There are a lot of people who like animals. And many of them keep some animals at home. Such animals are called pets. They are cats, dogs, hamsters, white mice and so on. They know their masters and love them. And all the pets need their master’s care and love. Dogs can be good friends to lonely people, cats can cure some illnesses and bad mood. I love cats very much. I have one at home. My cat’s name is Alice. She is four years old, but she is rather small. Alice has very beautiful eyes and when it is dark in the room they shine. She likes to play and to sleep, but most of all she likes to eat. Some cats walk outdoors. My cat hates it. She thinks that a domestic cat should stay at home. But in general it is a cat that walks by herself.
