WRITE A SUITABLE CLINCHER SENTENCE FOR THE FOLLOWING PARAG...

EXERCISE 1. Write a suitable clincher sentence for the following paragraph. Be

prepared to explain why your clincher sentence is a good one.

I do not enjoy being the oldest child in the family. If there is a fight or a

quarrel, my brother and especially my sister are bound to get sympathy be-

cause they are younger. I am often unfairly blamed because, as I am told, I

am “older and expected to know better.” If either of them gets hurt when I

am around, my mother is likely to say, “Why didn’t you watch her?” or

“Why didn’t you watch him?” When my friends come over, my brother and

sister sometimes annoy us by trying to get attention. When I try to do my

homework, it is sometimes hard for me to concentrate because they keep

the TV on too loud, watching some worthless program.
