I know my brother better than anyone else in the world．Since the moment of his birth，I've been part of his life．I had spent seven   1    years in the world with the attention of those around me．But when Rohan was born，life   2  ．Suddenly I had to   3   my toys and there were no more bedtime stories or my own choice of food．

Finally，I felt my    4    at my brother．The poor baby had no idea about what had made me so unhappy．Maybe he found me strange，the only person in this house    5    did not like him．Whatever the reason was，he loved    6    me around．However，I seldom talked to him and   7   asked him to leave me alone．

Then all that changed．I hardly remember everything of that day six years ago，  8    I do remember that I was feeling very angry．Somehow my feet led me to my brother's bed．My hand，completely   9   from my mind，reached through the bars（护栏）．At once，he reached his small hand and softly touched     10  ．And that was all I needed．Through all the unhappiness of the day，that one moment changed   11  ．How could I hate someone who made me feel so important? For the   12    time，I saw my brother，not through the eyes of a child who was no longer favored（宠爱），but through the eyes of a   13   ．

To this day，I can't imagine life   14   my brother．It is unbelievable how much I have  __15    about life from a seven-year-old boy．Above all，Rohan has taught me that one should not care only for himself．
