 F. example of descriptive text
I have a classmate at school. Her name is Mark Lee. We met often to play and he was
always nice to me. Mark's body was tall and well-proportioned. His slender body made his
friends envious. Mark also has an actor-like face which many female students like.
He has straight hair with black color. His hobbies are running, swimming and writing a
poem. Mark is not only handsome, but also very friendly to his friends and polite to his
teachers. Mark always smiled for those who greeted him. Every morning, Mark and I used
to go to school together.
At school, wherever I went, Mark was always with me. He is quite hyperactive and has a
funny response. During the holidays, Mark often came to my house to play. Sometimes
Mark would also stay at my house and come home in the morning. We often go outside to
visit exciting places.
