Создайте папку под именем Profiles, в ней - папки членов Вашей семьи под соответствующими именами, в которые собирайте всю необходимую информацию: текстовые файлы, картинки, фотографии, звуковые и видеофайлы. 2. Папка с Вашими личными данными будет дополняться материалами других устных тем, которые Вы будете изучать позже (Computers, My Friends, Entertainment, My Hometown), - в конце концов, у Вас будет солидный материал для топика, резюме или для подготовки к интервью на английском языке, которые необходимы
