Перевод: Большинство римлян жили в очень маленьких домах. Богатые римляне владели виллами. Семья была очень важна в Древнем Риме. Обычная семья состояла из отца, матери, неженатых детей, женатых сыновей с их семьями и рабов. И мальчики, и девочки начинали обучение в возрасте семи лет. Они изучали математику, грамматику, историю и литературу. Ученики прекращали занятия в полдень на обед. После этого они возвращались на уроки, чтобы закончить учебный день. Дома дети играли со своими домашними животными и игрушками. Они не играли в компьютерные игры, но любили играть в настольные игры и игры с мячом. Древние римляне не использовали ножи и вилки для еды. У них были ложки, а также они пользовались пальцами. Все римляне смотрели представления в театрах под открытым небом.
