That was a very dark time for me when I had to prepare for the entrance exam to high school. I was studying day and night, determined to succeed. However, there was a guy who helped me a lot, encouraging me and supporting me to achieve my goals. He's my older brother, James. James had already graduated from college, so he had a lot of knowledge and experience. He was also very good at understanding other people's emotions. He knew I was struggling, so he offered his help. He helped me set up a good study schedule and manage my time effectively. He also supported me when I had trouble with subjects like science or literature. He even prepared breakfast and lunch for me sometimes, and he would crack jokes to cheer me up when I was feeling stressed before tests. He would quiz me extensively to help me solidify my knowledge before exams. James is a truly amazing person who understands how people feel. He told me that the most important thing is to be well-prepared and emotionally stable before taking a test. His advice helped me tremendously.
