My father was eight years older than my mother.He was tall and thin,as straight as an arrow,with a long and angular face.
My mother,on the other hand,was short and slender,with a plump round face.They are also different in character.
My father was impulsive,active and energetic.Wherever he went,his sonorous voice was heard.But my mother was meek,quiet and demure.She didn't like to talk much,especially in the public.What's more,my father was more intelligent and experienced than my mother.
