5.

A: Do you come from a big family, Tina?

B: No, I'm an only child. It's just me and

my parents

1.

Both of my parents are taller than me. My

dad is pretty tall, but my brother is even

taller than my dad. Together they look like

a basketball team! My sister and I are the

short ones in the family.

2.

My brother isn't interested in music at all.

He's into cars, like my dad. But I'm not

interested in cars. I play the guitar and the

piano. I guess I love music because of my

mom. She sings beautifully. She plays the

piano really well, too

3.

I love animals. I have a dog and I keep a

couple of parrots in a big cage in my room. I

love taking photographs of wild birds when

I'm in the countryside. My dad and I often

go away for the weekend and we have a great

time birdwatching. My sister thinks I'm

crazy. When my sister has free time, she

loves to play cards. I can't stand card games

4.

I enjoy reading. I read a lot of books and I

love going to the library. My dad likes outdoor

things. He's really into sports and swimming,

and he always tells me I should get more

interested in sports. But Mom tells me that

reading is the best way to learn. She always

gives me books that she's been reading

5.

I'm very interested in computers: I'm

always teaching myself new computer

programs and I have a lot of great software.

My brother and I spend all' our free time in

computer stores and on the Internet. My

sister is more interested in the arts. She

likes music and she loves to read. She hates

computers!

6.

I love traveling. My mother and I go to a

different place every year. Both of us love

to learn new things about cultures. My father never goes with us because he hates

flying. My older sister is in college, so
