Dorothy Rose had a turned-up nose*.Did she worry about it, do you suppose?Oh, no; but a plan she began to hatch,To make the rest of her features match.
First of all, she trained her eyes,Turning them up to the sunny skies.Look at the mud and the dust? not she!Nothing but sunshine would Dorothy see.
A flower that droops has become to wilt,So up went her chin, with a saucy tilt.An ounce of pluck’s worth a pound of sigh,And courage comes with a head held high.
Lastly, her lips turned their corners up,Brimming with smiles like a rosy cup.Oh, a charming child is Dorothy Rose, -And it all began with a turned-up nose!
A turned-up nose\Вздёрнутый носик

My best friend is my classmate. His name is Dima. He is a tall boy with short dark hair. He has blue eyes and wears glasses. He is brave and strong. Dima is a very optimistic person. He is never sad. He knows a lot of jokes and often makes me laugh.
We made friends in the first form and since then we have a deep friendship.
We often go for a walk together and talk about different things. Dima is my close friend and I can tell him about my problems. He also shares his ideas with me. I can’t say that we have much in common but we have the same hobby. We like playing chess.
We always help each other in need. I think we will be friends forever.
My Best Friend
