            We live in a house with our parents. There are many houses near our house.

            The people living in these houses are our neighbours. The area around our

            house  is  called  our  neighbourhood.  There  are  many  places  in  our

            neighbourhood. They provide us services which make our life easy and
            comfortable.

                   neighbourhood.
