Listen to the text and guess the meaning of the new words.
Today we’ll learn some more words about appearance. When we speak about one’s hair we must know that if a person has very little hair or no hair at all we say that he is bald. A nose may be long or short, straight or crooked, aquiline or snub (turned up).
A chin may be large or small, round or protruding. Speaking about one’s teeth we say that they are large, small or tiny, even or uneven.
4. Read the sentences and then describe the appearance of any boy or girl, using the underlined words their antonyms.
Mike is unlike (like) his mother. His forehead is narrow (broad) and low(high), his teeth are large(small) and even(uneven). He has an aquiline (straight) nose and a protruding(round) chin. Betsy is rather short
(tall) and plump(thin). Her hair is black (fair) and straight(curly). Her eyebrows are bushy (pencilled), her
eyelashes are thin (thick) but long (short). She has small (large) hazel eyes and a crooked (turned up) nose. Her cheeks are never rosy (pale). Her lips are thin (full) and red. Her face is very unpleasant (pleasant) when she smiles.
5. Use the new words in sentences of your own describing any of your school mates, relations or neighbours.
