Mi nombre es Lucía y tengo 15 años. Mi madre es Laura y tiene 42 años. Yo soy alta y rubia, mientras que mi madre es baja y morocha. En este momento estoy aburrida y no puedo mirar la TV porque mi madre está muy entretenida mirando un programa de cocina. A mi no me gustan esos programas, prefiero las telenovelas, pero a mi madre le encantan. Ella ama cocinar, porque es una cocinera.

Explanation:

When doing this type of exercise, it is always convenient to have a dictionary at hand before you start, so you can search for all the words that you do not understand or that you want to include in the text you are going to write.

In this case we are asked several things. Let's clarify each of them below:

Name and age: This can be very easy, since you only have to invent two names and two different ages, one of a young person and another of an adult. In Spanish, whenever we want to say our name we use "Yo soy ..." and for the ages "Yo tengo ..."

Two descriptions: Here you should write physical features, among the best known we have:  Alto, Bajo, Flaco, Gordo, Morocho, Rubio, Joven, Viejo...

Feelings: This is a temporary state in which a person is. Examples of this can be:  aburrido, triste, feliz, divertido, enojado, malhumorado...

Profession: Profession is what the adult is dedicated to, that is, what is his job.
