<span>Many years ago a young doctor <u>began (Past Simple Active, ед.ч.) </u>to write stories about a man who <u>was </u></span><u>(Past Simple Active, ед.ч.)</u> a detective.

The doctor <u>was</u> <u>(Past Simple Active, ед.ч.) </u>Conan Doyle and he <u>wrote</u> <u>(Past Simple Active, ед.ч.) </u>about Sherlock Holmes. Conan Doyle <u>wrote</u> <u>(Past Simple Active, ед.ч.)</u> his first story about Sherlock Holmes in 1887. In this story the detective <u>meets</u> <u>(Present Simple Active, ед.ч.) </u>his friend Dr. Watson. Holmes and Watson <u>lived</u> <u>(Past Simple Active, мн.ч.) </u>at 221 В Baker Street in London.

This company <u>answers</u> <u>(Present Simple Active, ед.ч.) </u>twenty or so letters which still <u>come</u> <u>(Present Simple Active, мн.ч.) </u>every week to Sherlock Holmes, 221 В Baker Street. Most <u>come</u> <u>(Present Simple Active, мн.ч.) </u>from the United States and many people <u>ask</u> <u>(Present Simple Active,мн.ч.) </u>if Mr. Holmes <u>can help</u> <u>(Present Simple Active, ед.ч.)</u> them with some problem. The company <u>answers</u> <u>(Present Simple Active, ед.ч.) </u>saying that, "Mr. Sherlock Holmes <u>is</u> no longer <u>working (Present Continuous Active, ед.ч.) </u>as a detective". There <u>is</u> <u>(Present Simple Active, ед.ч.)</u> a pub in London called Sherlock Holmes. One of the rooms in the pub <u>is</u> <u>(Present Simple Active, ед.ч.)</u> Sherlock Holmes* room.

А)<span>This lovely two-storey brick building painted yellow.</span> The house is surrounded with a spacious garden where we plant fruit, vegetables and flowers.
The ground floor of the house is much busier than the first one. Here you can find a hall, a large living-room with a fireplace, a cosy dining-room connected with a kitchen, a bathroom. The unique feature of the ground floor and the real pride of our house is its winter garden where tropical kinds of plants and flowers grow all year round. We should be thankful to our mother for this garden which is the most beautiful corner in the whole house. Undoubtedly, she has a green thumb.
The first floor is a calm and quiet place. There are three small bedrooms, a library, a bathroom and a balcony upstairs. The library is equipped with lots of bookshelves, two comfortable armchairs, a desk and an office chair. In the bedrooms there are beds, wardrobes, mirrors. When the weather is fine we bring chairs and a table to the balcony and enjoy warm evenings outside.
