My best friend is Jackson, but I call him Jack. I have known him for ten
years. Now we are studying in the same class, and we sit beside each other. His
father drives us to school because we live in the same neighborhood.
Jackson is short and fat. He has a fair complexion. He also has dimples on
his cheeks. Whenever he smiles, all the girls in our class will look at his cute face.
He always wears black shirts because black is his favorite colour. Both of us enjoy
playing tennis and writing novel during our free time. We also like listening to
music, but jack likes English songs while I prefer Chinese song.
I like Jackson because he is a helpful friend .I always share my problems with
him, and he will offer some advice to help me. He is also good at English, so he
helps me with my English homework. Jackson is not only my best friend but is also
like a brother who always looks after me.
