Characteristics.

Volodya Nechaev's parents are very intelligent and highly educated people. Both of them are University graduates. And this is the way Volodya describes his parents' characteristics.

The father doesn't usually talk much. He's a seri­ous and punctual man who is quick at making de­cisions. As he is a managing director in a big company he meets people from all over the world. Dealing with people from different walks of life is one of the most important parts of his job. When speaking to anyone he tries to be very polite, tactful and patient. When solving different problems of the company he tries to be quiet and open-minded. Quite often he may work long hours. He is dedicated to his business. His col­leagues consider him absolutely trustworthy, loyal, responsible, wise and just. Everybody believes him to be of great value to his company.

The mother is quite a dif­ferent person. She is very emotional, easygoing and very sociable — not to say talkative when it doesn't concern her job of course. Volodya's mother works at Moscow State Uni­versity, the De­partment of For­eign Languages. She's really a won­derful woman with a good sense of humour and spar­kling wit. Students admire the way she delivers her lectures. She's kind, sincere, generous and always cheerful. She is also unselfish and very interested in other people. She has a great many friends who would die for her.
