+B roctax Xopowd, a oma nyuuie» as the Russians say: “There's no
place like home". And this is true even if home is in the taiga in Siberia, down
along the Volga or beyond the Ural mountains. Russians in the major
metropolitan areas and the larger cities live in high-rise apartment buildings,
whereas those in the rural areas tend to live in single-family homes. A drive
through nposwHuna the provinces will reward you with glimpses of those
homes which are usually wooden, single-story and often brightly painted and
decorated. Quite a contrast to the concrete monsters in the major urban areas!
Housing, whether in terms of quality or quantity, has always been a
problem in Russia and continues to be so today. The recent move toward
privatization has made it possible for some Russians to buy their apartments
from the government; others must continue to live in government-owned and
subsidized housing. For the foreign buyer, while supply might exceed demand,
real estate prices in Moscow and St. Petersburg proper rival those in cities
such as New York, London and Tokyo. But many Russians still find
themselves in situations where multiple families have individual rooms in a
KOMMyHanka communal apartment and others must live in cramped quarters
with their extended families.YPOK CME Bbl KUBETE?
SETTING THE SCENE
A Russian and an American are talking about where they live.
Listen to the dialog several times with your books closed. Do not repeat it. Try to
understand what the speakers are saying. Working as a group, discuss what was said.
Then listen to the American's lines. You are responsible for learning these. You are also
responsible for being able to understand the Russian’s lines and to respond to them in the
appropriate manner.
