Write a two-paragraph essay (double spaced) in which you describe a person you know. The paragraph should mention things you like about the person in the first paragraph, and things you don't like in the second paragraph

My Seven-Year-Old Nephew.
Yazan is my little nephew whom I admire his personality and spend a pleasure time with. My little nephew is dependable, benevolent, and skillful of many crafts but he has some bad habits such as scrawling on walls, eating junk food, and ... (I need a word that means he always wants to win and never accept defeat).

Let me tell you about his positives. First, he is dependable that I feel confident to keep my money with him or sometimes ask him to go to the grocery and buy a list of things. His mother could leave his brothers with him to look after them when she has an appointment. And he always fulfills all of these tasks sufficiently. Second, he enjoys helping others. As my father comes back from the supermarket, he runs immediately to carry foods and bags with him. Moreover, he is skillful at reading stories, using computer, and practicing sports. (Which preposition should we use with skillful. Is at correct?) Though he is only seven years old, he uses word processor program to print short stories that he enjoys. He also downloads songs and animated films to watch with his brothers. He goes on Tuesdays to take karate lessons. In fact, I like watching him doing new movements that he has learned every week. The most enjoyable thing with my nephew is reading. Once he buys his favorite monthly magazine, we dramatize the stories scenes and act the speaking parts as part of a stage play.

On the other hand, my little nephew has some negatives. He scrawls on walls whenever he finds a pen. One day, I gave him an eraser to clean my room walls which are decorated with his scrawls and drawings. Another thing, he likes to eat junk food such as chips and chocolates. Every time we go to the supermarket, he heads to snack food and soft drinks section and cries till his father allows him to buy a Seven-Up bottle and a chocolate bar, so he eats them while we are shopping. In addition, he stills awake till midnight and sleeps without brushing his teeth. Thus, most of his teeth are ... (I need an adjective from cavity. Which word is suitable?) The worst characteristic is that he never accepts defeat even in playing. As I win a Lingo game with him, he starts giving excuses to his rout and talks about his victories in previous games.

(I need a word that means he always wants to win and never accept defeat).

He is too competitive. I think that is the phrase you are looking for.

skillful at ----- this is good!

Though he is only seven years old, he uses a word processor program to print short stories that he enjoys.

his teeth are full of cavities.
or
his teeth are in decay.

(You can also use "decay" about other things. The old, abandoned house was in decay because no one was there to repair it.) Decay is also okay to use with teeth, though. But if he is only 7 years old it is the parents' job to make sure he brushes!

:-)

I admire your hard work!
