John and Helen are friends. They are in John’s room now, looking at the photographs on the wall.
Helen: Oh, John, what a nice photo! Is it your family?
John: Yes, it is. These are my mother and my father.
Helen: And who is this young woman?
John: She is my sister, Ann. She is married. This man is her husband. And these are their son and their daughter.
Helen: So they are your nephew and your niece. And who is that good-looking man? Is he your brother?
John: Oh no. He is my uncle. His name is Peter.
Helen: Is he your mother’s brother?
John: No, is not. Uncle Peter is my father’s brother. And this is his wife, Mary. These are my cousins.
Helen: Are they schoolchildren?
John: No, they are not schoolchildren, they are students.
Helen: The girl is very pretty.
John: Is she? And these are my father’s parents. My grandmother and my grandfather are very kind. They are fond of their children and grandchildren.
Helen: And who is that dull fellow next to your brother-in-law?
John: Why, it’s me.
Helen: Oh, I’m sorry, John.
