# video script:
Interviewer: Could you describe your parents for me?
Jessica: My dad is like this tall. He has already white hair,* big ears, and is very handsome. And my mom is a littler smaller than me, and she has black straight hair** and is very beautiful, and has big blue eyes.
Interviewer: Could you tell me what one of your brothers looks like?
Martin: Um, looks like me a little bit. The other one looks more like my mother.
Interviewer: Could you describe them a little bit--their hair, their eyes?
Martin: Uh, they both have black hair and brown eyes, just like me.
Interviewer: Now, do you have any siblings?
Angelique: Yes. I have an older brother.
Interviewer: So is he a handsome guy?
Angelique: I would think so, yes. I think he's very handsome, but he's my brother, so ...
Interviewer: And how about your sisters? Are they pretty?
Martin: I say they're pretty.
