Урок 25. Описание внешности и характера

В предыдущем уроке мы изучили лексику по теме хобби и свободного времени. Сегодня мы рассмотрим не менее важную тему — описание внешности и характера людей. Эти навыки необходимы в повседневном общении, когда мы рассказываем о своих друзьях и родственниках, описываем новых знакомых или даже пытаемся объяснить, как выглядит человек, которого кто-то ищет. Умение точно и детально описывать людей — важный аспект языковой компетенции, который поможет вам не только в повседневных ситуациях, но и при подготовке к международным экзаменам, где часто встречаются задания на описание людей по фотографиям. В этом уроке мы изучим необходимую лексику и грамматические конструкции, научимся составлять логичные и связные описания и избегать типичных ошибок.

👥 Практические диалоги

Диалог 1: Описание нового знакомого

Sarah: I heard you met Emma's brother yesterday.
Michael: Yes, I did. We had coffee together.
Sarah: What's he like? I've never met him.
Michael: Well, he's tall and athletic, probably around 6 feet. He has short dark brown hair and blue eyes, which is an interesting combination.
Sarah: Is he similar to Emma in terms of appearance?
Michael: They have the same eye color, but otherwise, they don't really look alike. He has a more angular face with a strong jawline, while Emma has a rounder face.
Sarah: What about his personality? Is he outgoing like Emma?
Michael: Quite the opposite, actually. He's rather reserved and quiet when you first meet him. He seems thoughtful and chooses his words carefully. But he has a dry sense of humor that comes out once he's more comfortable.
Sarah: That's interesting. Emma is such a people person, always the center of attention.
Michael: I know! They're very different in that way. But he's clearly intelligent and well-read, just like her. We had a great conversation about classic literature.
Sarah: He sounds intriguing. Does he live in the city too?
Michael: No, he's just visiting for the week. He lives in Boston, where he works as an architect.
Sarah: I hope I get to meet him before he leaves.
Michael: Emma is planning a dinner on Friday. I'm sure you'll meet him then.

Диалог 2: Описание пропавшего человека

Police Officer: Can you describe the missing person, sir?
Witness: Yes, he's my colleague, David Mitchell. He's in his mid-thirties, about 5'10".
Police Officer: What does he look like? Hair color, eye color, build?
Witness: He has light brown hair, cut short, and he's starting to go a bit gray at the temples. He has hazel eyes and wears rectangular glasses. He's slim but not skinny, and he works out so he's in good shape.
Police Officer: Was he wearing anything distinctive when you last saw him?
Witness: Yes, he had on a navy blue suit with a light blue shirt. No tie. And he always wears a silver watch that was a gift from his father.
Police Officer: Any distinctive features that might help us identify him? Scars, tattoos, birthmarks?
Witness: He has a small scar on his left cheek, just below the eye. And he has a tattoo of a compass on the inside of his right wrist.
Police Officer: Thank you. And what kind of person is he? Would he typically wander off without telling anyone?
Witness: Not at all. He's extremely reliable and organized. He always keeps in touch if plans change. That's why we're so concerned. It's completely out of character for him to disappear like this.
Police Officer: Is there anything else you think might be relevant?
Witness: Well, he's generally quite private and doesn't share personal problems easily. But he seemed more stressed than usual the past week. I don't know if that's related to his disappearance.
Police Officer: Thank you for this information. We'll start looking for him right away and contact you if we have any updates.

Диалог 3: Обсуждение характера друга

Tom: I'm thinking of asking David to be my roommate. You've known him for years—what's he really like to live with?
Anna: Oh, that's a good question. Well, he's very neat and organized, which is great for a roommate. He always cleans up after himself immediately.
Tom: That's definitely a plus. What about his personality? Is he easy to get along with?
Anna: For the most part, yes. He's pretty laid-back and doesn't get upset easily. He's also quite considerate—he always asks before having friends over and keeps the noise down if you're sleeping or studying.
Tom: He seems friendly whenever I've met him, but is he very social? I don't want someone who's constantly bringing people over.
Anna: He's actually more of an introvert. He has a small circle of close friends rather than a large group. He enjoys quiet evenings at home and isn't really a party person.
Tom: That's perfect for me. What would you say are his negative traits?
Anna: Well, he can be a bit stubborn sometimes. Once he makes up his mind about something, it's hard to change it. And he's very particular about his food—he won't eat anything that's past its expiration date, even by a day.
Tom: I can live with that. Does he have any unusual habits I should know about?
Anna: Let me think... He's a night owl, so you might hear him moving around late. And he's obsessed with recycling—he'll dig through the trash to sort things if you put them in the wrong bin.
Tom: That doesn't sound too bad. Overall, would you recommend him as a roommate?
Anna: Absolutely. Despite the few quirks, he's trustworthy, respectful of boundaries, and generally easy to live with. I think you two would get along well.
