北师大初中英语八年级上--Unit10 expansion-2

[00:00.00]You remember I told you
[00:02.86]that there was a broken door
[00:04.57]and a broken window?
[00:07.43]Well,we've already fixed¹ them
[00:10.55]but we haven't put new locks on all the doors.
[00:15.06]The house also had some problems with the pipes
[00:18.21]in the bathrooms and in the kitchen.
[00:21.57]We've already repaired the pipes in the kitchen
[00:25.21]and the upstairs bathroom.
[00:28.45]-a guy came to do the work last week
[00:31.50]-but we haven't fixed the problem
[00:34.04]with the downstairs bathroom yet.
[00:37.85]So,as you can see,we are making progress,
[00:42.49]little by little!
[00:45.08]The main thing that is missing² is the furniture
[00:49.99]We haven't bought any furniture yet
[00:52.99]and so there is nowhere to sit!
[00:56.71]We hope you can come and visit us
[00:59.16]when the house is ready.
[01:01.27]Take care,
[01:02.66]Love from Sandy
