【一起闲话英语】家族回忆-Family Resemblance

Akane, Canada

speaker Who in your family do you resemble most and why? Well, when I was little I used to resemble more like my father and so did my brother and everybody used to say that we looked like twins, but now, me and my brother look very, very different and I look very much like my mother and my brother looks more like my father.

 

Martin, The United States

speaker I would say the one person I resemble the most in my family, it would obviously¹ have to be my dad. We both have similar temperments, be that good of bad and we're interested in about the same things. We always have very interesting conversations about politics, baseball and all manner of things that are going on in the world, so my dad and I are the closest people in my family.

 

Naomi, Australia

speaker Who do I look like in my family? Actually, that's difficult. My family are all so different. None of us really look like each other. My mom, she has very dark hair. She has blue eyes like me but her facial features are completely different from me. My little sister has blond² hair like me. That's similar I guess but other than that, we all look completely different.

 

Simon, Canada

speaker So who do I resemble, my mother or my father? That's an easy one. I look like and act like my dad for sure. For one, he's bald and now, in my thirties I am also bald, so that's a pretty easy resemblance³, you know, two of us walking down the street together, both with no hair. Yeah, he likes to smile. I smile a lot. He's short. I'm short. We both like the same kinds of sports. Yep, I definitely⁴ would think that I resemble my dad.

 

Greg, The United States

speaker Who in my family do I resemble most? I think I resemble my dog, dancer the most. We're both hairy. We're both cute. We're masculine⁵, yet lovable.
