Tell me about a relative you really look up to.

B Natural answer

I really look up to my older brother. He works hard, but he never complains. I like his strong sense of responsibility and the way he stays patient with our family. He also has good advice for small problems, so I ask him a lot of questions. Watching him has taught me to be more careful and more honest.
