And explain why you admire this person?
Sample Answer:
Well, today I would like to tell you about the old person that I really admire is my grandmother.
She is my maternal grandmother, by which I mean my mother’s mommy. She is now in her early eighties. I have known her for my whole life. In actual fact, I spent my dreamlike childhood by her side as my parents were busy with business.
First and foremost, my grandmother is a knowledgeable person. In fact, she used to be a professor at a prestigious university –Melbourne University. From her, I learn that “it is never too late to learn”.
Besides, she is a wise woman, she can differentiate right and wrong, good and bad.
Last but not least, my grandmother is a tough woman. She has experienced ups and downs/ thick and thin/ sorrow and mirth in life.
My grandmother sets a good example to me, she always shares life experiences under her belt. I give her an unlimited/ immeasurable/ endless love and cherish as she raised all her children very well in spite of being a single mom.
