Answer

Brief Explanations:

  1. To write a description of her older - brother, thinking about the things she likes about him gives her content for the description. Calling his friends is about getting information from others, making a list of things for him to do is about her requests, and asking him to take her to the library is an action - request, not related to writing a description.
  2. Combining the two sentences "A special person in my life is my big brother. He is Ben." into "A special person in my life is Ben, my big brother." is the most concise and natural way. Option b is wordy, option c has an awkward word - order, and option d has a comma - splice error.

Answer:

  1. b) thinking about all the things she likes about him
  2. a) A special person in my life is Ben, my big brother.
