Lesson 3 – Appearance

Question 1

absolutely gorgeous
sleek jet-black hair
pale blue eyes
radiant complexion

Answer 1

My best friend Joanna is absolutely gorgeous (extremely beautiful). She has long, sleek, jet-black hair (sleek = smooth and straight, jet-black = perfectly black), pale blue eyes (pale = light color), and a radiant complexion (skin that appears healthy and full of energy).

3) Jet black موی پرکلاغی
4) Pale
5) رنگ و روی شاداب وپر انرژی

Question 2

hourglass figure
slender waist
round face
upturned nose
bears a striking resemblance

Answer 2

People always compliment her on her hourglass figure (when a woman has large breasts and hips, but a small waist) and ask her what the secret is to maintaining such a slender waist (a thin waist). She has a round face with an upturned nose, and she actually bears a striking resemblance (looks extremely similar) to a famous singer.

Question 3

hideously ugly
curly shoulder-length hair
unkempt

Answer 3

Joanna could get any guy she wanted – so I was really surprised when she introduced me to her latest
boyfriend, who I think is hideously ugly. He has curly, shoulder-length hair that looks rather unkempt (unkempt hair = messy hair, it appears that the person doesn’t take care of their hair)

Hideously ugly:
به طور وحشتناک زشت

Question 4

square face
ruddy complexion
deep-set eyes
bushy eyebrows
thick mustache

Answer 4

He has a square face and a ruddy complexion (reddish skin). His deep-set eyes (eyes that are far back in the person’s face) are almost hidden under his bushy eyebrows (big eyebrows with lots of hair), and he sports a thick mustache and a huge, shaggy beard (a beard with lots of hair). I guess Joanna doesn’t mind his facial hair

(facial hair = beard and/or mustache).

Question 5

athletic build
broad shoulders
muscular arms
trim his beard
somewhat attractive

Answer 5

His body isn’t bad – he has an athletic build (body with a lot of muscles), with broad shoulders (wide shoulders) and muscular arms. If he would only trim his beard (cut his beard a little shorter) and comb his hair, I suppose he could be considered somewhat attractive (more or less beautiful/handsome).
