Passage 1(2020天津夏)   As any younger brother will tell you, having a big brother involves a lot of walking in someone else’s shadow, especially when you have a brother who is a typical example of “cool”. For years I wanted to do everything my elder brother Tyson did, but no matter how hard I tried, I was always the neglected(被忽略的) one. My legs just weren’t made to run like his.

For the first time in my life, I actually felt cool. Now I know who I am!I’m Tyson’s little brother, but that’s only part of my identity. I’m a cool guy in my own way, too. I’m relieved to know that “cool” has a much broader definition than what I used to think. 1.How do you understand the underlined part in Paragraph 1?(no more than 8 words) ???? 2.What changes offered a new start to the author after his family moved?(no more than 15 words) ???? 3.According to Paragraph 3, what marked the turning point in the author’s growth?(no more than 7 words) ???? 4.What doe
