Лера:Алекс, хочешь я покажу тебе наш семейный альбом?

Алекс:Конечно.

(few seconds later..)

Лера:Вот. Это мои родители, отец и мать.

Алекс:Сколько лет твоему отцу?

Лера:Папе уже почти 65.

Алекс:Не может быть! Он так молодо выглядит! И ты похожа на него, как две капли воды.

Лера:Спасибо. Мы сейчас не часто видимся, от случая к случаю, так как он живёт в другом городе. Но я очень скучаю по нему.

Алекс:Мне тоже иногда грустно без моей семьи.

----Formal English----

Lera: Alex, if you want, I can show you our family album.

Alex: Of course.

Lera: Here you go. These are my parents-my mom and dad.

Alex: How old is your dad?

Lera: Dad is almost 65.

Alex: No way! He looks so young! And you look like him—like two peas in a pod!

Lera: Thank you. We don't see each other often-only from time to time, as he lives in another city. But I really miss him.

Alex: Sometimes I'm sad without my family, too.
