1.  When we are not sure about facts and only judge by the appearances, we use different verbs or expressions. We’ve focused on:

  • LOOK + adjective  or Age > John looks worried. Your sister looks really young. She looks only sixteen.
  • LOOK LIKE + noun or pronoun > You look like an actor. She looks like her aunt. George looks like me.
  •  
  • LOOK AS IF + sentence > She looks as if she hasn't slept well for days.

* When asking about appearance use: 

   'What does she/ he look like? '
    'He is tall and very good- looking'.

* When asking about character use:

   'What is she/ he like?'
  ' He is generous and charming.'
