Exercise
From the novel that you have read,choose a character that you "look up to". Give at least 3 reasons and 2 elaborations for each of the reasons to support your answer.

     The novel that i had study in form 5 is "Catch Us If You Can" written by Catherine MacPhail. There is a character that i "look up to".
  

     The character that i "look up to" is Rory McIntosh. He is eleven years old. He lives with his grandfather in a flat.
  
      I like Rory because he is a responsible person. His grandfather has a failing memory,which is always misplacing things. Rory has the sole responsibility of taking care of Granda like buying him his lunch everyday. Rory also rescues Granda from the old folks' home. He tells Darren that no one else would take care of Granda so, he needs to do it.
  
     Besides that, Rory is a caring person too. this can be shown when he sacrifices some of things he likes for Granda. For an example,he gives up football so that he can be at home with his Granda. Rory's worry is that if Granda put into Rachnadar,they would seperated. Rory will be shifted to the children's home at Castle Street because he will live in the flat alone. Other than that, he cries when he finds Granda crying in Rachnadar and does not want Granda to think he has been abandoned after all.

     Rory is a loving person. This can be shown when Dr Nicol says that Granda is lucky to have Rory. He has done all of this so that they could be together. He realise that he would never let anyone separate them. Rory also always remind his Granda to take the medicine on time. He do not want his Granda to get sick.
