2022-02-03 15:35:17 Describe a person you had when you were a child.

You should say:

who he/she was
how you met
how long you two have been friends
and explain what you liked doing together in your childhood.

The school days were the best days of life and I developed a friendship with some of my best friends. Abbos was one of them. He was my best friend in the school.

Abbos was the smartest boy in the class and thus he developed a very good friendship with me. In fact, we had a strong bonding that lasted until the last day of school. After completing the education from school, he left for higher study in the Korea and I remained here in Uzbekistan. But the communication between us is still strong and often we try to meet via the modern communication system and share our feelings and emotions as we did in the childhood.

The meeting with Abbos was simple. I met him on the day of admission at the local elementary school in Fergana. In fact, he was the son of my dad’s friend. But we did not know each other before the day of admission. Later, we got admitted and days passed on. The friendship between us grew stronger. Interestingly, Abbos and his family became my neighbour. Consequently, we moved to school together. Playing at the local playground was our routine task in the evening.

We have been friends for over 17 years. I had met him when I was four or five years of old. I exactly cannot remember the date and time of our meeting. But since then, we are sharing a very intimate relationship. Everything went very well until he left the country for higher education. But his family is still my neighbour and the relations are the same as before.

Both of us were fond of watching cartoons. We also used to complete our home works for the school and read comic books. Sometimes we had quarrels and the quarrel lasted for a couple of days. Besides, we also used to bunk classes together whenever we felt boring in the class or forgot to bring home works. Besides, there were many other activities that we took part in. Now, I miss those days very badly.

Task Response: 7

✓ addresses all parts of the task (the essay has answer the required question, and write more than 250 words)

Coherence and Cohesion: 7

✓ uses a range of cohesive devices appropriately although there may be some under-/over-use
✓ presents a clear central topic within each paragraph

Lexical Resource: 6

✓ uses an adequate range of vocabulary for the task
✓ attempts to use less common vocabulary but with some inaccuracy (the writer uses very few topic-related words. And when they are used, mistakes are presented “shopping online”)
✓ makes some errors in spelling and/or word formation, but they do not impede communication

Grammatical Range and Accuracy: 6
✓ uses a mix of simple and complex sentence forms
✓ makes some errors in grammar and punctuation but they rarely reduce communication (lots of the article “the” are missing, so I cannot give a 7 score here)
