• My family traditions appeared are not so specific. We are like many other families. We always celebrate the New Year and our birthdays together. Also, we meet with or grandparents on May 9^>th.

• I have to admit that my attitude to spending time with my family is very positive

In conclusion I would like to say that my attitude to spending time with my family is positive, reverent, and respectful. I enjoy a cosy atmosphere in our family. I value it very much. My parents and grandparents are kind. They share family stories with me and I feel happy. Being together is also a tradition of our family.

That’s all that I wanted to tell you about family traditions.

You are going to give a talk about your family. You will have to start in 1.5 minutes and speak for not more than 2 minutes (10—12 sentences).

Remember to say:

• if your family is big or not;

• how you get along with your parents and siblings;

• if you like to spend free time with your family;

• what your attitude to family relationships is.

You have to talk continuously.

Now I am going to tell you about relations in my family. It’s a very important topic to talk about.

* To tell the truth, my family isn’t big. They are my mother, my father, my brother, and I. And I have a pet, it is my cat. He is also part of our family.

* I am happy that I can easily get along with my parents and brother. My family is caring and loving. I can always get support and help. We never fall out. It is very important feel a single whole.

* You won’t believe it, but I really like to spend free time with my family because I am busy 5 days a week and we have free time to spend together only at the weekend. We play boarding games, watch family movies, and hang out, go shopping. I like this pleasant atmosphere. It touches me to the depth of my heart.

* My attitude to family relationships is hard to explain. My family is my castle, my friends, my protection, my everything. I cannot imagine my life without them. I hope I shall have the same family relationships as I grow older.

In conclusion I would like to say that family relationships are so important because they are the people, who never betray and abandon you.

That’s all that I wanted to tell you about my family.

You are going to give a talk about your family. You will have to start in 1.5 minutes and speak for not 2 minutes – 10—12 sentences.

Remember to say:

• whether your family is big or not and where you live;

• whether you get along with your parents and siblings;

• where you like to spend free time with your family;

• what your attitude to family relationships.

You have to talk continuously.

Now I am going to give a talk about my family.

* Honestly speaking, my family is really big. They are my mother, father, sister, brother, 2 grandmothers and 2 grandfathers, as well as Aunt and Uncle, and I am happy. Also, I have a dog and a little fish. I treat them as members of our family, too. We live in Moscow, in our own flat in the multi-storey building.

* It goes without saying that I love my family very much and I get along with my parents and siblings very well. I can’t imagine different relationships in our family. We understand each other and have a lot in common which is quite natural.

* You know, I like to spend all my free time with my family. The thing is that I am not so often free. In my pastime, usually at the weekend, we play board games, watch films, go for a walk with our dog, go skiing or sledging in winter, and so on. I like to spend my free time with my parents more than with my friends. Unfortunately, I have 8 lessons every day, a lot of extra classes, sport workouts, so we prefer staying at home instead of going to the theatre or cinema.
