Need help-7. Text and question correction.
Hi teachers,
Information to consider (of course there are previous paragraphs with more information about Deborah and Arthur).
Deborah, Arthur’s wife, plays the piano and sings very well. She is also a very good cook and swimmer. She speaks French fluently too. She is very young, but she didn’t marry Arthur because of his money. She married him because of his talent and kindness. They live happily together even though Arthur is fifty-five years old.
a) Does the whole paragraph makes sense?
b) Are these two questions correct according to the given paragrph?
1) How does Deborah play the piano and sing? She does it very well.
2) What else is Deborah? She is also a very good cook and swimmer.
My doubt is with the second question, I cannot see the sequence according to the previous one?
Would you help me?
Thanks in advance.

Hi teachers, Deborah, Arthur’s wife, plays the piano and sings very well. She is also a very good cook and swimmer. If I change the second sentence into this one: 'She also cooks and swims very well'.

Hi teachers,
Deborah, Arthur’s wife, plays the piano and sings very well. She is also a very good cook and swimmer.
If I change the second sentence into this one: 'She also cooks and swims very well'.
Then this question makes sense to me. 'What else does Deborah do very well? She cooks and swims very well'.
Am I right?
