The Swimmers
People are watching the swimmers practice for tomorrow's competition. The two favorites are Danny Solomon, in the yellow cap, and Brian O'Connor in the red cap.
Ann: "Danny is a
good
swimmer, but Brian is in
shape."
Tom: "I don't agree. Danny is really fit, and besides, he's very
tall
. That's a real advantage."
Ann: "Brian is
than Danny!"
Tom: "Brian isn't tall, he's
big
! He's
than a whale! He's too heavy to be a good swimmer."
Ann: " Brian isn't
heavy
at all; Danny looks
than him. Actually, Brian's very
handsome
; he's
than Danny!"
Tom: "I don't know about handsome, but he isn't as
strong
as Danny. Danny's arms and legs are
than Brian's. That's why he is so
fast
.
Ann: "Brian is
than Danny. I'm sure he'll beat him tomorrow."
Tom: "We'll just have to wait and see."
