What does this dialogue reveal about Robert?

He feels angry at Paul for attending a different school.

He agrees with his father's decision about his schooling.

He is eager to attend a new school without his brother.

He feels close and connected to his brother Paul.

The correct answer is b) He agrees with his father's decision about his schooling.

Explanation:

We understand clearly how both Robert and Paul feel close as brothers and want to stay together. However, Robert, as the youngest of Paul's siblings cannot come to accept the situation.

As far as he can remember, Paul has relied on his elder brother for support and guidance and feels that going to school without him, will leave him alone and vulnerable.

Robert, on the other hand, is older and more free minded. He accepts that his father's decision might be the best for him. As a multi-racial child who is consistently bullied, Robert is always looking for ways to 'escape' and build a different life for himself.
