1) The picture shows a street of terraced houses in a city. I don't know where it is exactly. Perhaps it is in Germany, but it is probably in Britain orIreland somewhere. The houses are quite small and they haven't got front gardens. But some houses look very colorful. Перевод: Картина показывает улицу таунхаусы в городе. Я не знаю, где именно.

Возможно, они сплетничают о кварталах. Ох, и есть кто-то моет машину в фоновом режиме. Это не очень красивая улица, но атмосфера, кажется, очень дружелюбной и расслабленой.
Why? I think the author would show us that not only external beauty plays an important and "beautiful" role in life, but also internally. - Почему? Думаю автор хотел показать нам что не только внешняя красота играет важную и "красивую" роль в жизне, но и внутреняя.
