Part 3

1. Read the texts. What family members do you think the people are describing?

1. 2. 3.

He's everything I'm not! He's very tall and slim, he's got dark hair, and he's confident, outgoing, and good at sports. Luckily, he's no good at school. I'm the intelligent one ...

She's still very young, and she's a gorgeous little kid. She's got curly ginger hair, and she's really lively and friendly. People say she's got her mother's eyes, but I think she looks more like me ...

He's quite old now, in his seventies I think, but he's never gone bald. He's got short grey hair (he calls it 'silver') and glasses. He's fairly quiet. He's always been quite thin, and he was probably very good-looking when he was young.
