Unit 2. About myself.Осебе

Let me introduce myself. I am Kiril Petrov, Kiril for short. My full name is Kiril Ivanovich Petrov. Now let me explain. My first name (given name) or Christian name is Kiril. Ivanovich is my middle name or my patronymic. Ivan is my father’s name and it’s our Russian tradition to use the patronymic and the first name together. My surname (last name) or family name is Petrov. I am 29.

I was born on the 3^rd of October 1989 in the city of Minsk. When I was seven, my family moved to Moscow. Now we live at 26, Leninsky Avenue. We live in a large three-room flat on the 4-th floor. I went to the kindergarten in my childhood. When I was seven I went to school. It was a lyceum. In 2006 I entered Plekhanov Economic Academy. In 2011 I graduated from it as an economist. In 2012 I got married.

My family is not large. We are a family of three: my wife, my son and I. My wife is an accountant but she is not working at the moment. She is staying at home with our baby who is two. We are a friendly family.

We don’t often go out in the evenings during the week, because I work too much but at the week-end we often go to the park, to the theatre or to the cinema. We don’t like to watch TV. We like fresh air and exercise! In summer we often go cycling, play tennis and go swimming. In winter we go skating and skiing in the park. Sport is fun. Also, when I’m free I like to read books. I like to go to the museums and art galleries. In summer we like to travel. We often go to Minsk because my parents live there.
