TEACHER’S COMMENT







Read the passage and then do the tasks that follow :
When I was young I argued with my brother and sisters all the time. I used to share most of my toys with my brother, but he specialized in keeping them for himself. When I asked him for anything he simply used to refuse to give it to me, and then I became very angry with him. Our sisters blamed everything on us when our parents accused us of quarrelling all the time. My brother and I got annoyed about this, but only succeeded in making matters worse. Our parents didn’t approve of our quarrelling so much, and insisted on not taking sides. They either laughed about it, or told us to forgive each other for everything. Soon we became good at getting on well with each other.
