Guide to answer

Passage 1: Your best friend is a boyfriend

Among the friends that I have. Nam is my close friend. He is seventeen years old. Although we don't live in the same district, we are now classmates. I met him when we first came to this high school. So we've known each other for more than a year. Nam is a good-looking boy. He's tall with short straight hair and clear black eyes. He has got a square face and looks very energetic and studious. His clothes are not expensive but always clean and well-ironed. We have been friends just because we nearly have the same tastes and qualities. We are very helpful to each other when having difficulties. Moreover, there is completely mutual trust between us. We are always ready to tell each other our most intimate secrets. Another thing is that Nam has a sense of humour. He is known as a class joker. He usually makes our class laugh. He's very polite to older people, generous and helpful to his friends. When time goes by, our friendship becomes deeper and deeper.

Passage 2: Your best friend is a girlfriend

My best friend's name is "Sao Mai", which means "Morning Star" in English. She is the same age with me, and we have known each other since we were in grade 5. If I were to describe how she looks, I would say she is very pretty. She is not very tall and quite slim. She has a round face with long black hair, big eyes and regular white teeth. That's why many people say that her smile can brighten up even the cloudiest day.

She has a very nice personality and a wonderful sense of humour. She is also very intelligent and studious. The first thing I like about Mai is that she shares the same interests with me. We both enjoy listening to music and collecting stamps. In addition, she is very good at maths and she helps me a lot with difficult exercises. However, perhaps the best thing like about her is her kindness. Whenever I have a problem, she always encourages me or gives me helpful advice. I hope that our friendship will last forever.

2. Describe your friend

3. What you like your friend

a. What I like about Lan is that she has same hobbies with me. We both enjoy singing karaoke reading comic books and going shopping. We like going to the cinema but sometimes can t agree on which movie to see. In addition since I am better in Maths and Chemistry and she is better in English and languages we can always help each other if we get confused about a difficult homework assignment. We are so lucky that we get along so well. I hope that our friendship can last long.  

b. My best friend is Lan. We have known each other since we were 10 years old. However, we became best friends when we were at grade 7. At that time, I was very bad at English and it was who helped me improve my English. Now she lives with her parents in Nguyen Trai street.

c. She has long black hair, a straight nose and a small pointed chin. She is quite slim. She doesn't like to dress up so I usually see her wearing jeans and a T - shirt. She has a very nice personality and a wonderful sense of humour but she can also get a little depressed from time to time. I can always count on her to be honest and to give me the best advice.
