He’s a hero and people’s good friend because he helps people in danger. Do you agree? What do you think of him? Ss talk about Batman with the adjectives describing appearance and personality, such as friendly, helpful, kind, polite, clever, brave, etc. Step 2 Presentation T: There are some more words to describe people. For example, we can say Batman is good-looking. But we never say he’s beautiful! We don’t use beautiful to describe a boy or a man.
