Write the comparative forms of
the following adjectives. Then use them to write five sentences about you and your friends.
2a
Before you read
My mother told me a good friend is like a mirror. I’m quieter and more serious
than most kids. That’s why I like reading books and I study harder in class. My best friend Yuan Li is quiet too, so we enjoy studying together. I’m shy so it’s not easy for me to make friends. But I think friends are like books — you don’t need a lot of them as long as they’re good.

Should friends be the same or different Read about what these people think. Underline the comparative words and phrases in the passages.
Task 1
It’s not necessary to be the same. My best friend Larry is quite different from me. He is taller and more outgoing than me. We both like sports, but he plays tennis better, so he always wins. However, Larry often helps to bring out the best in me. So I’m getting better at tennis. Larry is much less hard-working, though. I always get better grades than he does, so maybe I should help him more.
Huang Lei
I don’t really care if my friends are the same as me or different. My favorite saying is, “A true friend reaches for your hand and touches your heart.” My best friend Carol is really kind and very funny. In fact, she’s funnier than anyone I know. I broke my arm last year but she made me laugh and feel better. We can talk about and share everything. I know she cares about me because she’s always there to listen. Mary Smith
