Requirement: Four students are in a group. You are going to think of a celebrated figure, and try to describe his or her appearance. Other groups have to guess the identity of the person that you described
Examples
Example 1: She was young----not more than seventeen years old. She was short, thin and
pretty, with a lot of golden hair and a pair of blue eyes. Figure: Miss Manette 梅尼特小姐
Source: A Tale of Two Cities written by Charles Dickens
Example 2: She was a fat woman, about the same age as her husband. She had large hands,
with heavy rings on her fingers. Her face was strong and calm, and her manner was very composed(镇定).
Figure: Madam Defarge 得伐石太太

Example 3: He had a white bead which was not very long, a thin face, and very bright eyes. His
eyes were naturally large, but they look larger than they were. This was because his face was so thin and his cheeks were so hollow. His eyebrows were still dark, and his white hair was very untidy.

Example 4: The prisoner was a young man of about twenty-five. He was tall and handsome with
a brown skin and dark eyes. He looked like a gentleman. He wore plain clothes(便装)of black or very dark grey. His long dark hair was tied together with a ribbon at the back of his neck. He was quite confident. He bowed to the judge and then stood quietly. Figure: Charles Darnay (查尔斯·代尔那)
