Describe a famous person you would like to meet. v. 2
Describe a famous person you would like to meet. You should say: who this person is why you want to meet this person why this person is famous and explain what you would do if you meet him/her.   Model Answer 1: Since my early childhood, I have loved playing football. So, it was quite natural for me to always admire a great footballer. But, never had I had the urge to meet a famous footballer until I saw a magician with football called “Lionel Messi”. Yes, I would like to meet Lionel Messi. Not sure about others, but I consider him as one of the legendary footballers of modern times, if not of all times. Lionel Messi is an Argentine Footballer who started his football career at the age of 17 when he joined Barcelona club. Since then, he never really had the time to look back as he kept winning for his club and team season after season with his extraordinary football skills. His style of play, as a diminutive, left-footed dribbler, drew comparisons with his compatriot Diego Maradona, another football legend of all times, who described Messi as his successor. Anyway, in today’s world, there are a few very few football fans, who don’t know about Messi and his football skills, but many don’t know that he had to overcome some serious health issue, like hormone problem which made him grow way faster than other children of his age, in order to become one of the most successful footballers of modern times as well as the leading goal scorer of all times for his country, Argentina. Of course, Messi is a famous hero, not only because of his perseverance to overcome his physical deficiency and build his soccer skills but also for using it to spread joy around the world to many children who have a hard life. If I ever get a chance to meet this famous footballer, I would certainly ask for some autographs from him first. Then, of course, I would ask him as to what really motivated him to become such a great footballer apart from the reason of being born in a football-crazy country. Besides, I would also invite him to come to visit my country sometime and play there. Then, finally, I would wish him "best of luck" for his better future career.

Model Answer 1:

Since my early childhood, I have
loved
playing
football
.
So
, it was quite natural for me to always admire a great footballer.
But
, never had I had the urge to
meet
a
famous
footballer until I
saw
a magician with
football
called “Lionel Messi”.

Yes, I would like to
meet
Lionel Messi. Not sure about others,
but
I consider him as one of the legendary footballers of modern
times
, if not of all
times
. Lionel Messi is an Argentine Footballer
who
started
his
football
career at the age of 17 when he
joined
Barcelona club. Since then, he never
really
had the
time
to look back as he
kept
winning for his club and team season after season with his extraordinary
football
skills
. His style of play, as a diminutive,
left
-footed dribbler, drew comparisons with his compatriot Diego
Maradona
, another
football
legend of all
times
,
who
described
Messi as his successor.
Anyway
, in
today
’s world, there are a few
very
few
football
fans,
who
don’t know about Messi and his
football
skills
,
but
many
don’t know that he had to overcome
some
serious health issue, like hormone problem which made him grow way faster than other children of his age, in order to become one of the most successful footballers of modern

because
of his perseverance to overcome his physical deficiency and build his soccer
skills
but
also
for using it to spread joy around the world to
many
children

life.

get
a chance to
meet
this
famous
footballer, I would
certainly
ask for
some
autographs from him
first
. Then,
of course
, I would ask him as to what
really

being born
in a football-crazy country.
Besides
, I would
also
invite him to
come
to visit my country sometime and play there. Then,
finally
, I would wish him
"
best of luck
"
for his better future career.
