Why does Alistair think that having a brother is “an advantage”
Para3.
Because he has had a brother trying to beat him at everything. It has been an enormously positive force on him.
1. How are opinions about the Brownlee divided
2. Who do you agree Why
Para4.
Family comes petition the second.
Some think the brothers should have been disqualified, while others think they should have been highly praised for their actions.
As far as I’m concerned, he should be highly praised because that’s what brothers should be like. At that moment, he was not an athlete aiming for a medal but just a brother.
Think and share:
3.What do you think about having a brother or sister
In my view, having a sibling can be a wonderful experience. It often means having a lifelong终身的 friend. You learn to share, communicate, and support each other through life's ups and downs人生的起起落落.
4.What have you learnt from the story
I’ve learnt from the story that brotherly love means helping each other out of trouble. And it is not the career and glory荣誉 but the family love that matters重要.
In family matters, families matter.
