Native Americans
The first people to live in a land are called indigenous peoples. Sometimes these peoples are referred to as Indians or American Indians. This is because when Columbus had first landed in America, he thought he had sailed all the way to the country of India.
Native Americans lived throughout North and South America. In the United States there were Native Americans in Alaska, Hawaii, and the mainland of the United States. In the middle of the country lived the Plains Indians, including tribes such as the Comanche and Arapaho. In the Southeast area of the country lived tribes such as the Cherokee and the Seminole.
The Native Americans were grouped into tribes or nations usually based on the area they lived in and their culture such as their religion, customs, and language. There were hundreds of tribes throughout the United States when Columbus first arrived. Many of them are well known such as the Cherokee, Apache, and the Navajo.

My Room
We live in a three-room flat. One of the rooms is mine.
My room isn't very large but it is light and cosy. Its walls are light-green. There is a window and a balcony in my room. To the right of the window there is a desk where I do my homework. On the desk there is a handy lamp and my laptop. Above the desk there are two bookshelves where I keep my textbooks. Under the shelves on the wall there is a map of the world. I put the map there last year in order to study for a map quiz. On the opposite wall there is a large poster featuring Marvel's Avengers.
I sleep on my bed which is next to the desk. The bed is covered with a colourful blanket. To the left of the balcony door there is a comfortable armchair. I like to sit in it when reading books or playing games on my phone. There is a sliding door wardrobe in the corner of the room.
The floor of my room is covered with a neutral-coloured carpet.
I like my room very much.
Моя комната
Мы живем в трехкомнатной квартире. Одна из комнат моя.
Моя комната не очень большая, но она светлая и уютная. Стены в ней светло-зеленые. В комнате есть окно и балкон. Справа от окна стоит стол, где я делаю домашнее задание. На столе удобная лампа и мой ноутбук. Над столом две книжные полки, где я храню свои учебники. Под полками на стене висит карта мира. Я повесил(а) карту в году, чтобы готовиться к викторине. На противоположной стене висит большой плакат с изображением Мстителей Марвел.
Я сплю на кровати, которая стоит рядом со столом. Кровать покрыта разноцветным одеялом. Слева от балконной двери стоит удобное кресло. Мне нравится сидеть в нем, когда я читаю книги или играю в игры на своем телефоне. В углу комнаты есть шкаф-купе.
Пол комнаты покрыт ковром нейтральных цветов.
Мне очень нравится моя комната.
