Talk about your home doc

Talk about your home.

Of all the places in the world, I judge my home to be a
paradise. As the old saying goes, “East or West, my home
is the best”. My home offers affection and security. I live
with my parents, my elder brother and younger sister.

I belong to a middle class family. My father is a supervisor
in a factory and my mother is a production operator in the
same factory. We have a four-room flat in Bedok
Reservoir area. Our drawing-cum-front hall is decorated in
a tasty manner. The northern corner has a television deck.
Some ten meters from that end, there is a morgohany sofa
set with an ornamented tea table in front.

Our kitchen is fully equipped with multi-cabinets and a
small store. A small dining table with four chairs are
placed near the sink. A big refrigerator stands silent in the
corner. Our home has been decorated with many
memorable souvenirs which remind us of our visits to
different places. Our home has three bedrooms. The
master bedroom is occupied by my parents. I share the
second bedroom with my younger sister. The third
bedroom is solely occupied by my brother. Sometimes, it
is used as a guest room for our relatives from Malaysia.
They usually visit us during festival season. Ours is a
small and happy family where every member has
consideration for the needs and comforts of the others. All
of us do our share of housework. In most mornings, the
place looks busy as everyone rushes about doing one’s
morning chores. We normally have a light and quick

breakfast. In every evening, my family will have dinner
together. This is the time of day I like best.

We keep our home neat and tidy. Everything is kept in
order and in its place. I am very proud of my home and I
love it very much.

Talk about your hometown.

I was born in a small sea-side town in Malaysia called
Mersing. It is situated in the south-east of Malaysia, near
the South China Sea. It is a small town with a population
of about fifty thousand people. It is a peaceful and
beautiful town.

The main occupation of the people there is fishing. The
sea is their livelihood. Besides fishing, tourism has also
become quite popular. Tourists stop over at Mersing on
their way to the islands off Mersing. The most popular
island is Pulau Tioman.

The population here is made up of Malays, Chinese and
Indians. The majority of the people are Malays. There are
either fishermen or farmers. The Chinese are mostly
shopkeepers and restaurant and hotel owners. The
Indians who are the minority are either civil servants or
rubber tappers.

The town consists of three streets of shops. There are
three schools, a Chinese, a Malay and an English medium

schools. There is a hospital and a few private clinics, a
cinema hall, library and a big wet market by the sea. There
are a number of hotels to accommodate tourists who flock
to Mersing to visit the Islands.

The people in my hometown live in peace and harmony. I
love the peace and quiet of my little hometown.
