Unit 2

A few words about my family and myself.

I. Прочитайте и переведите текст.

My name is Oleg Petrov. I was born in 1999 in the seaman’s family in Kerch. At that time my father was a motorman, now he is Chief Engineer of a big cargo ship. My mother is a surgeon, she works at a hospital.

I’ve got a sister and a brother. Both my sister and my brother are younger than me. When I was a child we lived together with our grandmother. She died two years ago. At that time our grandmother didn’t work, she was on pension. She kept house as my father was most of the time at sea and my mother was very busy at hospital. My sister and I did our best to help our granny: we went shopping, cleaned the flat, washed up and did some other housework. Our brother was too small to help us. He went to a kindergar­ten at that time.

At the age of six I went to school. I did well at school and I took an active part in the school social life. When at school I was good at mathematics, history and English.

When I was a child I spent much time on the seashore. I liked to watch the waves. I struck up a friendship with a retired seaman. I often went out with him on a small boat.

I remember a small bay and a high ridge of rocks running into the sea. This high ridge acted as a sort of breakwater. We anchored there a short distance out in the deep channel. We swam and fished and he told me many interesting sea stories.

My training did me a lot of good. When I finished school, my father advised me to become a seaman. I followed his advice, passed the entrance examinations and entered the Kerch State Maritime Technological University.

Now I am a first-year cadet of the engineering department.
