B: No, that's Pedro. Pedro's heavier than Paul. And Paul’s shorter than Pedro.

Interviewer: Tina, do you think you are different from Tara?
Tina: Oh, sure. We're very different. I'm funnier than Tara. And I'm more outgoing. Let's see, what else? Oh, I'm more athletic, too.
Interviewer: So, Tara, are you more serious than Tina?
Tara: I guess so. I'm smarter than Tina. And I'm quieter.
Holly: Pete.
Interviewer: Why is he a good friend?
Holly: Because he likes to do the same things as I do. He's popular,
too, and he's good at sports.
Interviewer: Are you good at sports, too?
Holly: Well, I like sports, but Pete's more athletic than I. I'd say
we're both pretty outgoing, though.
Interviewer: What else do you like about Pete?
Holly: He's funnier than I am, and he's wilder. I'm a little quieter.
Interviewer: How about you, Maria? Who's your best friend?
Maria: My best friend is Vera.
Interviewer: What do you like about her?
Maria: Well, she's a good listener, and she keeps secrets-that's
important to me.
Interviewer: Is she a lot like you?
Maria: Some people say that we look alike. We're both tall, and we both
have long, curly hair. But Vera is much quieter than I, and she's
also smarter. I'm more outgoing.
