I'd like to describe my close friend, Lena. I met her when we were in the first grade of primary school. So, we've known each other for a long time, about ten or eleven years now. She's a really reliable and thorough person. I can always count on her for help, especially with academic questions. Her support is invaluable to me. She's also very careful, cheerful, and talkative. I really appreciate her because she's my best friend and always there to support me. She can explain even the most difficult topics to me. For example, she's incredibly smart in technology and science subjects. She can easily break down complicated math concepts for me, since I'm not very good at that. I enjoy learning about art, history, English, literature, and different languages like Chinese.
