Reading
Read the profiles, then answer the questions.
Tanya
Hi! My daughter is called Tanya . She is only 12 years old, so she is very young. Tanya is a tall girl, but she always eats unhealthy food, so she is a little plump! She has got long straight red hair and wide blue eyes. She has got a lot of freckles. Tanya cleans her teeth every day, so she has got white, healthy teeth and thin lips.
Nick
Hi there! My brother`s name is Nick. He lives in London with his girlfriend. He is 25 years old, so he is not old. My brother is very tall but he goes to the gym every day, so he is strong and well-built. Nick goes to the hairdresser twice a month, so he has short wavy dark hair and moustache. Nick has got narrow blue eyes and does not wear glasses. Nick is a very friendly person, so he always smilles, showing his white teeth. His lips are thin and his nose is small and short.
Amy
Hello! My grandmother is called Amy; she is very old. She is 82 years old and she has got many wrinkles. My grandmother is very short and thin. She has got short curly grey hair. She wears glasses because she cannot see very well, but she has beautiful big blue eyes. My grandmother is very funny, so she always laughs with her friends and family. She has white teeth and plump red lips.
