A Read the information about Giovana and Hiro. Write sentences comparing them.
Hello. My name’s Giovana. I’m 15. My teachers
say I’m really artistic. In my free time, I really like
painting or taking pictures. I also like watching
funny movies, you know – comedies. I don’t hang
out with big groups of people because I’m shy. I
usually don’t go to big parties or clubs. Sometimes
I watch sports on TV. I play a lot of sports. I enjoy
tennis and canoeing. I’m pretty tall – 5 feet,
10 inches (177cm) tall, so everyone wants me on
the basketball team, but I don’t like basketball
very much. I’m not good at it.

2. (short) Giovana
3. (tall) Hiro

Hi! I’m Hiro. I’m 15. Actually, my birthday was last
week. I had a big party with about 30 friends.
I’m not very shy, so I invited a lot of classmates
and neighbors. We did all my favorite things. We
played volleyball on the beach and then went
swimming and surfing. I’m not very big – I’m only
5 feet, 6 inches (168cm) tall, but I’m very athletic.
We played sports all day! At school, I get my best
grades in gym. I get my worst grades in art. I’m
not very good at it.
