Объяснение:

This text is about toys- modern and old.

Modern toys are dolls that sing and dance, cars that move at the touch of a button and airplanes that fly are the toys.

Old toys are bricks with letters of the alphabet, model kitchens, doll’s houses, tool kits, trains, cars, trucks.

These toys helped children learn while playing.

Things for children from poor families were different.

They played mostly on the street.

They used mud, tin caps, and their imagination to make their own toys. 

No matter how old or new, expensive or cheap toys are, they always have a special place in children’s hearts.
