Writing bank. Descriptive language To describe somebody’s appearance we often use the verb look. We can use: look + adjective (e.g. He looks (a) _____________.) look like + noun/pronoun (e.g. She looks like (b) ___________.) He looks a bit tired here. She looks like an American actress in this photo! She looks really happy here, doesn’t she?
We use modifying adverbs to make adjectives stronger or softer in order to give more accurate descriptions. For example, we use: 4) very, extremely and really to make ‘normal’/ ‘extreme’ adjectives ( good, bad, clever ) stronger. 5) totally, absolutely, really and completely to make ‘normal’/ ‘extreme’ adjectives ( fantastic, awful, mad ) stronger. 6) quite, a bit, and rather to make ‘normal’ adjectives a little softer/ stronger. He looks a bit tired here. He’s totally mad. Rose is extremely clever. She looks really happy here, doesn’t she?
Lucy is really _______ and has got quite _______. 2. Josh looks _______ and is totally _______. 3. Eliza looks like a _______ and she is extremely _______. 4. Pete is a bit _______ and he looks _______.

Hi Sam! You asked me to send you a photo of me and my family. So here it is! Can you guess who everyone is? I’m the one in the black T-shirt. You can probably tell that my sister, Alison, is sitting next to me. Everybody says we look a bit like each other. In the photo she’s got medium-length brown hair but now it is really short. She is an absolutely fantastic sister, but she is rather bossy sometimes. I’m sitting next to her daughter, Abby. She’s very talkative. That’s my nephew, Greg, at the top of the table. He’s really funny. My mum is at the end of the table. She’s really patient and helps us a lot. Then there’s my dad next to her; he’s always cheerful. The photo was taken when we were on holiday in Puerto Pollença, Mallorca. It’s a totally amazing place! I want to go back there one day. Right, I need to go. I’m going out in about ten minutes! When you send your next email, don’t forget to send me a picture of you and your family. Take care, Susie
