Continue preparing your programme about your celebrities. Find some interesting photos and collect the following data from the Internet, books and magazines:
- marital status;
- family members (parents, brothers, sisters, spouse, children etc), their occupations. Draw their family tree;

Задание творческое, поэтому я придумал пример знаменитости: певец Alex Brown. Подставь своих героев и реальные данные из интернета. План такой:
- Выбери знаменитость и найди
– фото. - Найди семейное положение, родственников и их профессии.
- Узнай про домашних животных и домашние обязанности.
- Нарисуй семейное дерево: сверху родители, ниже сам герой с братьями, сёстрами и супругой, ещё ниже дети.
- Напиши текст.
Семейное дерево (пример):
- Parents: John Brown (engineer) + Mary Brown (teacher)
- Children: Alex Brown (singer) + Linda Brown (his wife, actress), Tom Brown (his brother, doctor)
- Alex and Linda's children: Emma and Max
My celebrity: Alex Brown
Marital status: Alex is married. His wife Linda is an actress. They have been together for ten years.
Family members: His father John is an engineer, and his mother Mary is a teacher. His younger brother Tom is a doctor, and his sister Kate is a student. Alex and Linda have two children: a daughter Emma (
Family tree: John + Mary → Alex (+ Linda), Tom, Kate. Alex + Linda → Emma, Max.
Pets: The family has a dog called Rex and a cat called Molly.
Duties about the house: Alex walks the dog every morning and cooks dinner at weekends. Linda does the shopping. The children water the flowers and tidy their rooms.
