TASK 1
Descriptive text 1

This is my lovely cat, his name is Derris. I took care of him since he was a kid when I bought
it at the animal market. Derris is currently 9 months old. My cat belongs to the Persian breed so it
has long fur. Derris has a petite body and a funny face. Moreover, his activeness makes me want
to continue playing with him.

Derris grew into a very healthy cat because he always eats regularly so that his body
continues to grow. He has a very beautiful long brown fur, the fur is also very soft and very
comfortable to touch. Derris has black eyes with sharp pupils when outdoors. His eyes will look
very cute when he is in the room because his pupils will turn big so he will look like a spoiled and
obedient cat. The tail is also not too long maybe only about 10 cm. However, because the fur is

very long, the tail also looks long. The pads on the feet are cute because they are pink in color and
are soft to the touch. The pads on this foot serve as a sense of touch for Derris. His body that is not
so tall makes Derris’s body look tiny coupled with his long hair. My cat is very spoiled because
when I’m sitting he will come to my palm and put his head in my hand as a sign that he asks him
to be petted. Derris certainly makes my day feel happier. This is because his spoiled and adorable
nature makes me want to keep playing with him.

Descriptive Text 2
Rabbits are small mammals that are very cute and are characterized by long ears. I have a

rabbit named Bob. This rabbit when I went with my father while visiting the pet shop, there I saw
a cute little white rabbit so my father bought it for me.

I bought the rabbit when it was quite small, and now it has grown in size and is 7 months
old. Bob has quite thick and white fur all over his body. I always bathe to keep his fur white and
clean. Bob has a pair of long pink ears because the fur is quite thin on the ears. Bob’s eyes are red
and will look very striking when exposed to sunlight. My rabbit likes carrots as the main dish.
That’s why I always give him at least 3 carrots a day. Sometimes I let him out of the cage so he
can run around and jump around. Of course, after a few hours, I’ll put him back in the cage. My
rabbit has 4 legs with different sizes between the two front and two hind legs. The two front legs
are quite small and different from the hind legs. The hind legs are quite large because they are the
main mover when he jumps. Bob’s tail is very cute because it is very short. Because the tail is
covered by tattoo feathers, it will make the tail look like a lump and look round. That’s why this
tail will look cute when seen together with its body.
