Talk about your new
neighbors.

When I was waiting for the lift, I saw a girl of about my age
dragging two big boxes of household items to the lift.
When the door of the lift opened, I helped her to drag one
of the boxes into the lift.

She thanked me and explained that her family had just
moved into a flat in the block. I was surprised when she
moved the boxes into the flat next to mine.

I came to know later that my new neighbors are the Tan
family. The girl whom I met in the lift is Debbie. Her elder
brother is Desmond and the eight-year-old younger
brother is Danny.

Debbie and I soon became good friends. Though we do
not attend the same primary school, we hope to get into
the same secondary school next year.

My mother gets along well with Mrs. Tan. They exchange
recipes and go to the market together. In fact, the Tan
family is very easy-going and they fit well into our
neighborhood.

I am glad the Tan family lives next door. I hope we will
always be neighbors.

Talk about your neighbors.

Some neighbors are good while some are bad. My
neighbors are good.

The Lim family lives next door on our right. Mr. Lim is a
post-master and Mrs. Lim is a housewife. They have two
adorable children: a boy and a pretty girl. Mr. Lim is a very
helpful man. He helps to pay our telephone bills for us.
Whenever we have any letters or parcels to post, we give
to Mr. Lim and he posts it for us. Mrs. Lim takes great
pride in her garden. She grows all kinds of plants. Her
garden is always full of bright colored flowers. She helps
me with my garden. She has taught me a lot of things
about gardening. She is a good cook and loves baking
delicious cakes for her family and neighbors. The Lims are
friendly, helpful and honest people.

The neighbors who live on our left are Mr. and Mrs. Rao.
Mr. Rao is a businessman. He deals in carpets, and owns
a big carpet shop. Mrs. Rao is a school-teacher. They
have no children. Mr. Rao is rarely at home. He is always
away on business trips. We only see him on Sundays.
Mrs. Rao loves children. She used to buy sweets and
chocolates for the children in the neighborhood. On every
Deepavalli eve, the Raos hold a children’s party. All the
children in the neighborhood are invited. We enjoy going
to the party. All kinds of cakes, sweets and ice-creams are
served. At the end of the party, presents are given to all
the children.

I like my neighbors. I feel very fortunate to have such good

neighbors.
