My mother and father expect too much from me. She doesn't know the meaning of life nor my father and brother. My brother says: ''It would be better if your dad kills you and i should rest in peace, you haven't had a taste of my father's punches." They constantly find fault with me, overexpecting and demanding.

Find some activities to do outside of the home environment. Once your involved in your own thing.. you will have a better idea of what 'realistic expectations' are for you. This is a very personal choice.... and varies per individual. Find what is right for you and your situation, and 'just do it' and 'keep safe".
Volunteer... After School Study Group... A part time job...
Mentor... Library helper... Visit the elderly... Work at a local hospital... Bag groceries... Cashier....
Join a youth group at a local church and be a mentor or just chat with your peers.
Just getting out of your house and being involved in your own thing will help you keep a straight head, and make you feel better about yourself and find the answers you need to deal better with whatever it is that is truly happening at home.
If the above does not sound good... try talking with a school counselor or a local guidance center counselor. They may be able to help give you ideas how to cope with what is happening at home.
Keep reaching out, and the answers you're searching for will come.

this is a very difficult situation. your parents are from a different generation, your father is abusive, i feel sorry for you and your brother.
is your brother frightening you into doing what your parents want?
you need help, maybe counselling would be a good idea, it would help clear your mind. do you have a good friend you could speak to? maybe someone who has been in the same situation as you.
you are you and no one can change that, not your parents or your brother and i think it's disgusting the way you are treated although it is not uncommon.

You did not mention anything about your age. If you are young, just try to hang in ther unless he is actually beating you. You will be grown and able to leave home soon.
