Model Answer 1:
This is a rather interesting subject to talk about even though I am not too sure that I would be able to do proper justice to it. Nevertheless, I will try my best to describe a person who, I think, is really beautiful.

Her first name is Rebecca (I will not disclose her last name here because of the “privacy” reason). She can’t exactly be called a neighbour of mine, but she certainly can be considered one because she spends a very good part of her days in an elementary school in my neighbourhood from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, at least 4/5 days a week. Yes, she is a kindergarten school teacher – a language teacher to be precise.

I have known her for almost a year now even though I haven’t really had many opportunities to talk to her except just saying “hello!” and “how are you doing?” at times when I go to leave my little cousin at her school once in a while.

As I have just mentioned, I haven’t really had many opportunities to interact with her, so, it is only reasonable to conclude that I won’t be able to give a very good account of her, as far as the question of what I know about this person is concerned. But, from what I have known about her in some casual conversations with my little cousin, all I can say is that she is a good teacher and that she also very much loves the children, she teaches. My little cousin has also told me that this lady teacher of her lives in a big house with her family, in a different neighbourhood which is about 8/10 kilometres away from mine.

Anyway, I think that this lady is a beautiful person because she has “olive” skin – a skin tone with a naturally tanned look which I really like and admire. What makes her look even more beautiful is that she knows exactly what colours of dresses to wear to match her gorgeous-looking skin. She dresses smartly and it gives a pleasant sensation to look at her lovely and handsome face.


Sample Answer 2:

Introduction:
I think that "beauty" is subjective and can be perceived differently by each individual. However, there are some people who possess a quality that makes them stand out and catch the attention of others. In this regard, I would like to talk about a person whom I know and find beautiful.

Who this person is:
The person I am talking about is my best friend - "Sarah". We have known each other since childhood and have remained close throughout the years.

How you know this person:
As I've mentioned earlier, Sarah and I have been friends since childhood. We went to the same school and have been through many ups and downs together.

What you know about this person:
Sarah is a very kind and caring person. She is always willing to lend a helping hand to anyone in need. She has a great sense of humour and is always able to make me laugh even on my worst days. She is also very intelligent and hardworking, and her dedication towards her studies and career is truly inspiring. Above all, she is a good friend of mine and I would always like to be her friend.

And explain why you think this person is beautiful or handsome:
Apart from Sarah's wonderful personality, she is also physically attractive. She has striking features, including her big blue eyes and her long blonde hair. Her smile lights up the room, and her confidence in her own skin is truly admirable. But what really makes Sarah beautiful is her inner beauty, her ability to make everyone feel comfortable and accepted, regardless of their background or appearance. She radiates positivity and kindness, and that is truly what makes her stand out in a crowd.
