1 . Jack just moved to a new place in Nelson. He wants to buy a house, but he hasn"t much money and his job is not well paid. So he needs a house whose price is about£50,000 and at least has two bedrooms. 2 . Lucy is now 65 years old. She is not very healthy and it is difficult for her to move. So she now wants to find a bungalow (平房) in Earby so that she can easily go out of the house to enjoy the sun in winter and fresh air outside in summer. 3 . Alice was very poor before, but recently she got a highly paid job and wanted to change her house into a better one. But the house should at least have four bedrooms and two reception rooms. What"s more, it should look like the house in the countryside. 4 . Peter now lives in Nelson. He dreams of having a house with at least three bedrooms. Besides, he doesn"t like high buildings. 5 . Lynne has lived in Newchurch for many years and now she wants to buy a house for a change. She wants the house to be semi-detached (半独立式) or detached. She also wants a separate garage. | ||||
