B Natural answer
My friend Lina is really kind. She is the kind of person who on the bus and with people when they move away. She does it , so she doesn't seem like she wants praise. She also helps her younger brother with homework almost every night. I think what makes her that way is that her parents were very patient with her, and she learned early that small acts can change someone's day.
