As far as i understand it can be any random person. At least explain what each question is asking for or what it means

nasty-shy [4]

For question 1 they are just asking to describe how the person looks. For example if I were describe Elsa I would say: She has bleach blonde hair that is in a French braid. She wears a elegant light blue dress that flows each step she takes. They want you to also underline the details.

For question 2 they want you to describe the person using the five senses. For example: Her skin is cold like winter but smooth. Her hair is soft and is has waves like the ocean. They want you to underline one sense and bold the other.

For question 3 they want you to use a metaphor to describe the person and/or compare them to something. For example: She is like a storm in the winter, cold, reckless, and never gives up. They want you to also underline the comparison.

For question 4 they want you to write an alliteration for this person. For example: She sings, the sound of her voice spreads, so soft, so sweet, oh so lovely. Also underline the letter that form the alliterative.

For question 5 they want you to write a three-sentence paragraph, so a paragraph with three sentences describing the person. You do have to make sure it has a little rhythm to it, like a poem. For example: Blonde hair, blue eyes, recklessness seems to live inside. Sweet voice spreads wild, confidence she wears like a dress. Cold skin but soft to the touch, her love is oh so much.

There you go! I really hope this helps! ;)))
