Do More for My Brother This is the 47th day. In the evening, I was overwhelmed by a sense of guilt. My little brother told me that he failed to repeat a year of school and retake the college entrance examination, meaning his choice for study is to attend to a technical college with a low score.Then I couldn't help but think of how less I have done for him. As a sister, I didn't fulfill my responsibility.The love, care and help I gave him was scarce. And the encouragememt for him in study was rare. A big factor is that I put too much focus on my self while ignoring the people around me. Now, I hope he will me a chance to do more for him from today. No matter he will or not, I will try best to love, care about and help him. I am grateful to everyone, especially to my family, friends and teachers. Good night.

To Do More for My Brother

This is the 47th day.

This evening, I feel overwhelmed by a sense of guilt.

My little brother told me that ~~he failed to repeat a year of school and retake the college entrance examination, meaning his choice for study is to attend to a technical college with a low score.~~

...after repeating a year of school and retaking the college entrance exam, he still got a low score, meaning that his only remaining option is to attend a technical college.
...he got a low score on the college entrance exam, meaning that he has the choice to repeat a year of school and retake the test, or to attend a technical college.

[If you write what you want to say in Chinese we will translate it for you.]

~~Then~~ I couldn't help but think of how little I have done for him. As a sister, I didn't fulfill my responsibility. The love, care and help I gave him was scarce. And the encouragement for him in his studies was rare. A big factor is that I put too much focus on my self while ignoring the people around me.

Now, I hope he will me a chance to do more for him from today on. No matter if he will or not, I will try my best to love him, to care about him, and to help him.

I am grateful to everyone, especially to my family, friends and teachers.

Good night.

Doing More for My Brother

This is the 47th day.

This evening, I was overwhelmed by a sense of guilt.

My little brother told me that he failed to repeat a year of school and retake the college entrance examination, (unclear: see below) meaning his (only) choice for any further study is to attend to a technical college that accepts people with a low scores .~~Then~~ I couldn't help but think of how little I have done for him. As a sister, I didn't fulfill my responsibility.The love, care and help I gave him was scarce. And the encouragement for him with/regarding his studies was rare. A big factor is that I put too much focus on myself while ignoring the people around me.

Now, I hope he will give me a chance to do more for him from today on. No matter what he says/does, I will try my best to love, care about and help him.

I am grateful to everyone, especially to my family, friends and teachers.

Good night.

he failed to repeat a year of school and retake the college entrance examination, is unclear.

I think the following is what you mean:

He failed his classes this year and has to repeat the year and retake the college entrance exam.

馬可福音 6:4 耶稣对他们说：“大凡先知，除了本地、亲属、本家之外，没有不被人尊敬的。”

How old is you didi? Does he live at home with your parents? Realistically, what could you have done? What do you mean by "encouragement"? 说“加油”吗? If you call him and tell him to study, what does he say? I think all parents, and some older siblings, worry about this. I sometimes write about my daughter too. Am I pushing her enough to study? Do I let her play games and watch anime too much? What should I do when she says, “滚，讨厌，我讨厌你！” I can't FORCE her to study. I can't take the SAT for her. (American equivalent of gaokao, but much easier.) I think the best encouragement is example. I KNOW you are a GREAT example, encouraging many people you don't even know, here on italki, to be consistent in their studies and writing. If your didi doesn't follow your advice, it is sad, but not your fault.
