1.

Three of my best/good friends – Catherine, Beatrice and Anne – are triplets, although if you met them you wouldn’t even think they were related. Beatrice, who is the eldest looks nothing like her sisters. She is taller than both Anne and Catherine and slightly thinner. Her hair is as black as coal whereas her sisters have much lighter hair. They also have very different personalities. Catherine is probably the loudest of the three and the funniest. Anne and Beatrice are quieter and more sensitive than their sister, but they are all equally friendly. I think they are the nicest triplets in the world.

Two weeks ago, I went into town to buy a birthday present for my elder sister. You couldn’t meet a more wonderful person than her. She is one of the most charming and funniest women I know. She is also the most generous-hearted person I’ve ever met. The bad/worst thing is that she has a quicker temper than me. Mother says she could also be a bit tidier than she is. Anyway, the present I wanted to buy her had to be the best I could afford. Eventually, I came across the most beautiful scarf I had ever seen. It was longer than the one she already had and much more colourful. Imagine my disappointment when I discovered the next day that Mother had bought her exactly the same scarf!
