Model Answer 1:
The human cannot live alone and thus requires friends. The trend has been on 
since the inception of the civilisation. I also have many friends and have usually 
pass moments with them. But Jacob Stallin is my best friend. 
One might have a good number of friends in different forums but not everyone 
is considered as the best friend. A best friend should have some specific 
qualities and responsibilities. Jacob Stallin, a boy of 17 is my best friend for 
some specific reasons. He is a kind hearted boy and behaves very well with 
everyone. He proudly owns an adventurer –like look and has a very special 
hairstyle. He never combs his hair or uses any sort of hair care element. He has 
a manly look for his large brown eyes and wide forehead. With his sharp nose, 
he looks wonderful as well. He lives with his family in the block we live in.

We are familiar for around eight years. When I was a child of nine years, my 
father shifted in the current location (Davao City in southern Philippine). He is 
a businessman and shifted in this coastal city with the aim to enlarge his 
business. When I was admitted to the local school, I met with the local 
students and all of them accepted me cordially. However, there were some 
invisible distances among us and at last I found that Jacob is also like me. His 
family also shifted there a few months ago. Since both of us could not be 
familiar with the local children, we planned to be together. Already eight years 
have passed since we met first and hope our friendship will last till our death. 
By the period of eight years, we have had many quarrels but everything was 
okay after a few moments. In fact, Jacob and I understand each other very well 
and thus the troubles do not last longer.
We do a lot of things together. The first thing is study. Both of us help each 
other in studies since we are in the same grade. During or before the academic 
tests, we share our views and take notes. Often we exchange notes of different 
subjects and try to make the texts clearer to each other. Sometimes we move 
for an outing in far places using bicycles. Fishing is a great task for us. We catch 
fish from the Davao River. Sometimes we board on boats and move towards 
the sea for fishing. That is the most important way for us to get entertained. 
Besides, both of us like to enjoy movies at theatre halls. Whenever we see an 
advertisement of any new movie, we immediately rush to the theatre. During 
the familiar events, both of us are invited to our respective families and it 
appears that we have turned the part of the families. All of the family 
members are well aware of our activities and love us unconditionally. 
There are many reasons to pick him as my best friend. When I was isolated in 
my school, he came forward to accompany me in my distress. The cultural 
mismatch was one of the key causes of the mismatch with the local children 
though they initially appreciated me for arriving from a different culture. But 
they were less cordial with me and treated me as an alien. At that moment, 
Jacob expanded his helping hand and still he is with me. He is very careful 
about some issues and with his direct inspiration, I have been performing well 
in the examinations. Besides, he has a developed an improved sense of right 
and wrong. When I want to commit any misdeeds, he forbids me. So, often I 
feel lucky to have him as my best friend.

This a very interesting question to answer. In fact, all the friends are best to 
me. But if I consider the issue deeply, it appears that Lara is the best of the 
best. Now it is my time to describe her. Thank you again for asking such a nice 
question.
Lara is my very best friend for some reasons. She is the person whom I admire 
most for her personality and friendly attitude. I do not know how a young lady 
of 18 become the centre of attraction with all her charming attitudes. She is 
helpful and loves to socialise with people.
I met her first at my university here in Austria. She was the most interesting 
character in the class. Coincidentally she sat with me and started talking about 
various issues. At first, I was a bit disturbed for her excessive talking because I 
am introvert in nature. Later, I realised that she is a girl of outgoing nature. I 
also discovered some other qualities of Lara that attracted me most. Finally, 
when the classes were over and we were set for home, I found that she lived in 
the next lane of mine. It was the beginning of our friendship and it is running 
for over three years.
We do a lot of things together. The first and the most important thing is that 
we love to read books. We exchange books. Sometimes we also have some 
assignments together for our classes. Watching movies regularly has become a 
passion for us. Besides, both of us has a common goal. We love to shop. So, 
visiting the shopping malls is a kind of hobby for us. Every evening we move for 
shopping but we do not buy all the times. Sometimes, we have window 
shopping. Further, participating in indoor activities is another mutual activity 
for us that both of us love to take part in. Joining night clubs is another form of 
entertainment for us that we love so much.
Lara is my best friend for some reasons. Initially, I was not interested in making 
friendship with her for her extrovert nature. But later I thought that I was 
jealous for her outgoing nature and thus tried to avoid her. Finally, I came to a 
conclusion that I should not avoid Lara and be a good friend of her. Now we 
are having a very intimate and nice relationship. In fact, she is the best friend 
of mine now. She has occupied the place with her natural quality and also 
loves me much. She is always with me and provides realistic suggestion to 
make the things smoother. For all the reasons, I think she is my best friend.
