Lesson 52 A pretty carpet
We have just moved into a new house /and I have been working hard all morning. I have been trying to get my new room in order. This has not been easy/ because I own over a thousand books. To make matters worse, the room is rather small, so I have temporarily /put my books on the floor. At the moment, they cover every inch of floor space /and I actually have to walk on them /to get in or out of the room. A short while ago, my sister helped me //to carry one of my old bookcases/ up the stairs. She went into my room /and got a big surprise when she saw all those books on the floor. 'This is the prettiest carpet I have ever seen,' she said. She gazed at it for some time then added, 'You don't need bookcases at all. You can sit here/ in your spare time /and read the carpet!'

I was working hard to move into a new house all morning. I tried to sort out things but this was not easy as I own hundreds of books. As the new room is very small, I have to put my books on the floor temporarily. They covered everywhere just like the carpet. My sister helped me to carry one of my old bookcases up the stairs and she got surprised. She suggested that I needn’t a bookcase, I can read the carpet!
