II. Friends

MY FRIENDS

I have many friends but my best friend is Peter. He is fifteen. Now we are first-year students of the technical school. He is a good student because he studies hard and is very diligent. He wants to become a good specialist. He often helps me with my English lessons and I’m grateful to him for that. We made friends with Peter when he and his family moved to our house. We have very much in common: we like the same music, we both like reading.

Now a few words about his appearance. He is rather tall, strong and well-built. He has an oval face, straight nose, dark-brown hair, blue eyes and a nice smile. People find him good-looking. Peter is a good sportsman. He goes in for sports. He plays football and basketball well.

I have another friend. Her name is Natasha. She is a schoolgirl and she lives next door. She is a blonde with blue eyes, she is slim and pretty. She has long fair hair. She likes riding a bike and computer games.

I like all my friends very much. I think they are all my faithful friends.
