My favourite clothing is an old biker jacket． It （1）　　 （make） of thick black leather and it has a red lining． It belonged to my mother when she was young， so it's very old now!

    Why do I love my jacket？ Because it （2）　　 （be） once my mother's and because it is very practical． I （3）　　 （not need） to iron it and I never need to get it cleaned． It （4）　　 （keep） me warm and dry， so I wear it all the time， except in summer． Also， leather jackets never go out of fashion and you can wear them with jeans， skirts and dresses．

He had run after me down the road with it． We started chatting and I made a new friend． Now I think of it as my lucky jacket．
