[00:00.760]--- Lesson 23 A new house
[00:06.280]--- First listen and then answer the question.
[00:12.080]--- Why is the new house special?
[00:17.600]I had a letter from my sister yesterday.
[00:21.680]She lives in Nigeria.
[00:24.960]In her letter, she said that she would come to England next year.
[00:30.960]If she comes, she will get a surprise.
[00:35.440]We are now living in a beautiful new house in the country.
[00:41.240]Work on it had begun before my sister left.
[00:45.840]The house was completed five months ago.
[00:50.640]In my letter, I told her that she could stay with us.
[00:56.160]The house has many large rooms and there is a lovely garden.
[01:02.440]It is a very modern house, so it looks strange to some people.
[01:08.840]It must be the only modern house in the district.
