1Story of the week 15 minutes

Maria shops for her mother. Everything here comes from Month 8.

In the exam every text is played once: try the story by ear first.

Подарок для мамы (A present for Mum)

Мария искала подарок для мамы.

Сначала она видела синее платье, но оно было слишком дорогое.

Потом она нашла белую сумку: она дешевле и красивее.

Мария купила сумку и пять красных роз.
