Let's Talk! (trang 32 sgk Tiếng Anh 9 iLearn Smart World)
In pairs: Look at the pictures. Which house would you like to live in? Why? What do you want in your house?
(Theo cặp: Hãy nhìn các bức ảnh. Bạn thích sống ở ngôi nhà nào? Tại sao? Bạn muốn có thứ gì trong ngôi nhà
của mình?)
Which house would you like to live in? Why?
I would like to live in the second house — the
modern one with the swimming pool. Because it
looks comfortable, big, and perfect for relaxing. I
also love swimming, so having a pool is great!
What do you want in your house?
I want a big bedroom, a modern kitchen, a
swimming pool, and a small garden. I also want a
quiet place to study and a big window to see the
view.
If I had the chance, I would choose to live in the modern house with the swimming pool. Not only is
it spacious and stylish, but it also offers a perfect balance between comfort and luxury. The large
glass windows let in natural light, which creates a relaxing atmosphere. I think it would be an ideal
place to rest, especially after a long day at school.
In my dream house, I'd like to have a private study room with bookshelves, a smart home system,
and an open kitchen connected to the living room. I also want a balcony with a nice view and a
cozy space where I can spend time with my family. A swimming pool and a little garden would
make it even more perfect.

bedroom, and one for my bathroom. They will have modern equipment to make life comfortable. There will be rope bridges
connecting the houses together. I want all the houses to look really nice and cozy with yellow curtains and lots of string lights.

of the forest and a lake. I'll spend lots of time there reading, working, and watching sunsets. My bedroom will have huge
windows and a window in the roof so that I can see stars and the moon from my bed. My bathroom will have an outdoor
bathtub and shower. There will also be a garden where I can grow vegetables, fruit, and flowers. I'll also decorate my house
with lots of photos, paintings, and small souvenirs.
