part three. Listening, please circle the name of the character being described Number one. He was 17, tall and lean, with thick, greasy hair. He kept combed in a complicated swirl. He was cocky and smart. His specialty was cars. He could lift hubcaps quicker and more quietly than anyone in the neighborhood. But he also knew cars upside down and backward. He could drive anything on wheels. He worked at the gas station Number two. He was the oldest of the gang and the wisecracker of the bunch. He was about 6 ft tall, stocky and build and very proud of his long, rusty colored sideburns. He had gray eyes and a wide grin, and he couldn't stop making funny remarks to save his life. You couldn't shut up that guy. Life was one big joke to him. He was famous for shoplifting and always smarting off to the cops. He really couldn't help it. Everything he said was so irresistibly fun. It just had to let the police in on it. To brighten up their dole lives. He like fights, blondes and, for some unfathomable reason, school number three. He's 16 going on 17. He never cracks a book at all. He tries to understand, at least, but then he's different from anybody. He understands everything. Almost. I love him more than I've ever loved anyone. He's always happy. Go lucky and grinning. He'll never grow up at all. Number four. If I had to pick the rial character of the gang, it would be him. I used to like to draw his picture when he was in a dangerous mood. For then I could get his personality down. In a few lines, he had anel fish face with high cheekbones and pointed chin, small, sharp animal teeth and ears like a lynx. His hair was almost white. It was so blonde, and he didn't like haircuts or hair oil, either. So it fell over his forehead and wisps and kicked out in the back and toughs and curled behind his ears and along the nape of his neck. His eyes were blue, blazing ice cold with a hatred of the whole world number five. He's 6 ft two and broad shouldered and muscular. He has dark brown hair that kicks out in front and slight cowlick in the back, but his eyes or his own. He's got eyes that are like two pieces of pale green ice they've got to determine set to them like the rest of them. He looks older than 20. Tough, cool, smart. He'd be really handsome of His eyes weren't so cold. He doesn't understand anything that's not playing hard fact, but he uses his head.
