People are different

Irene:I think that I am home-loving, kind and patient. I can get on with people well, because I always try to help them and they trust me. But sometimes I am lazy – I don`t want to do anything.

Steve:I am practical I think, because I always try to do the work that will help me in future. I am also honest and I don`t like those people who lie to me, because I always notice it and tell them about it. That is why they say that I am tactless. I am sometimes bossy.

Jane: My mother says that I`m light-minded, because I do everything without thinking. I am really risky. I hate that I am undisciplined. I am really hard-working. I try to do everything when I am asked, but sometimes I just forget about it.

Mark: I am very active, although my parents say that I am lazy, because I don`t like to do things they want me do. I think I am leading, because I want other people follow me. They get offended with me and say that I am rude. But I think I am just very honest and I tell people what I think about them.

Nataly:I have a lot of friends. But I can say that most of all I enjoy my own company. My brother believes that I am rather self-centered and live only for myself. I think all people are selfish. The most important thing is being hard-working, thorough and ambitious. My friends say that I am very reasonable and trustworthy.

Andrew:You might think that I am boast, but I`d say that I am really clever. I study a lot because I like it and I try to work hard to get results. That`s why I think that I am determined. I am rather critical I`d say, because I like when everything is perfect.

Kate:I am very conservative, they say, I agree with them. I never change anything in my life: ideas, principles, and friends. And the proverb “Old friends and old wines are the best” is my motto. People say that I am shy.
