Passage 1:
Among the friends I have, david Warren is the one I like best. He is popular not only in my
class but also throughout the school. He is talented and likes outgoings.
Most students in the school know him as a champion swimmer. David always represents the
school in freestyle swimming and has won a lot of medals in competitions. Last year, in the district
championship, David was the one who scored the winning goal for our school team. He is very
remembered by his schoolmates for this.
David is friendly with almost everyone, and he is known as a class joker. Sometimes, before

the teacher comes to the class, he wound stand in front of the class and throw us a riddle. His
favourite riddle is the one which asks, “Do you know why…?”. Actually he never gives us time to
answer. He would shout out the answer almost immidiately, and the class would brust out with
laughter. Even when David is called upon to answer a question by a teacher, his answer often contains
a joke or a remark which makes us laugh. Usually, because his joke are funny, the teacher would
laugh along with us.
David also likes to organize outings and gatherings. Unlike some people who usually invite
certain groups of these functions, davis often organizes them on the class basis. Once he organized a
class outing to the zoo. Towards the end of the visit, to show our apprepriation, David had arranged a
special treat for our class teacher who was accompanying us. It turned out that he had reserved for her
the zoo’s special offering-tea with the orang utan (ape)! Of course, the animal was tamed and had
been trained to sit quietly with human visitors. We all, including the teacher, were very happy and had
a good laugh.
