Think-Pair-Share
What do you think about having a brother or sister
Do you think that is an advantage
express your ideas.
advantages（sample）
I firmly believe having a brother or sister can be an advantage. Here’s why:
Firstly,Companionship
You always have someone to play with, talk to, or share hobbies. This reduces loneliness and makes daily life more fun.
Secondly,Social Skills
Siblings(兄弟姐妹) teach you to share, communicate, and solve problems. Arguing and working things out with them helps you learn how to deal with people.
Thirdly,Responsibility
You might help care for a younger sibling or do chores（家务活） together. This builds a sense of duty and prepares you for teamwork later in life.
Finally,Emotional Support
Brothers or sisters often understand family situations better than friends. They can comfort you during tough times and celebrate your success.
Overall, siblings teach important life lessons, provide support, and make growing up more enjoyable.
