Experiencing Chinese Adv LESSON 3 2016 10 154. Text in English

There are three bedrooms, one sitting room, and two bathrooms in my apartment. My sofa is in the middle of the sitting room. Right in front of the sofa, there is a tea table on which there are many snacks. Opposite the sofa, there is a TV set. Like watching TV, but nowadays the TV programmes are less and less entertaining.
