CANDE -MY HOUSE

live in a mansion. It´s in Italo Bizio Street.  It´s quite big and so beautiful. It has got twenty-two rooms: five bathrooms, three bedrooms and two kitchens. It has also got two dining rooms, a living room, a hall, four gardens, a garage, two studios and a playroom. 
My favourite room is my bedroom.  It´s very big. It´s next to the living room and near the playroom. There´s a bed, an armchair, two lamps, a TV and a computer.I prefer this room because there I’ve got all my teddy bears. I love my bedroom so much.

    - For actions which started in the past and are still continuing in the present.

    - To talk about an experience.
    Time expressions used with the present perfect simple

    Homes in England


    The main types of houses in England are:
    • Detached (a house not joined to another house)
    • Semi-detached (two houses joined together)
    • Terrace (several houses joined together)
    • Flats (apartments)

      Houses come in all shapes and sizes and vary from one part of the country to the next. We have houses which are more than 500 years old as well as brand new houses.
