Привет! Il s’agit d’une conversation entre deux amies. Elles discutent de la façon de passer le week-end. J’utilise beaucoup de verbes de mouvement avec des préfixes différents. J'utilise la méthode TPRS. Удачи!

Говорят, что выходные дни – это маленький отпуск. Хорошо, если вы не будете сидеть дома, а поедете куда-нибудь. Катя и её подруга выбирают, куда им поехать на выходные.

- Катя, давай слетаем на выходные в Москву? Можно купить билеты на самолёт недорого. 
- Да нет, я была в Москве летом. Может, тогда лучше в Питер?
- Почему?
- Там столько можно увидеть! Сходим в Эрмитаж и в Кунсткамеру, съездим в Петергоф… А ещё я давно мечтаю погулять по крышам Питера и прокатиться на теплоходе по Неве. Я очень люблю необычные экскурсии!
- Хорошо, я согласна. Давай поедем в Питер!

Vocabulaire.
выходные (дни) -  un week-end

In this third part of the Neil McTaggart story, 18-year-old Neil arrives in 1920s Ontario, Canada, to live with his uncle Robert Jefferey — a firm but fair man from his mother's side. Neil, unable to read or write, begins adjusting to life in a deeply religious, structured household. This chapter explores the beginnings of their relationship as Robert gently steps into a fatherly role, and Neil begins to sense the stability, discipline, and quiet kindness of his new life.

At the dinner table, Neil meets his aunt and cousins for the first time. Set against the backdrop of rural Canadian farm life, this is a moving story of migration, growth, and learning to belong — especially for those starting again in a new world.
