I have eyes that are said to be “cow brown,” and my long fair hair is my best feature （特征）.I’m not overweight, but I’m not too 1 either.
I’m relatively happy with my 2 , but where did I get it? Do I share the same features as some unknown stranger? 3 , while walking down the street, I tried to 4 that stranger, imagining that one of the women I passed 5 possibly be my biological mother（生母）.
