After “that” only nonsense comes, in which it is not possible to understand what the writer actually wants to say. Correct:

  • My brother recommended the cake after he told me he was a vet wool. ( = indirect speech)

If you indicate professions and nationalities, please do not write an article!

I do not see a connection between the pie recommendation and the professional desire, but it is probably just about the correctness of the sentence and not the meaning.

No no, the text from “that” is simply Nonsense. You still understand that there is something to come with veterinarian and, of course, can suspect that the brother wanted to become a veterinarian. But “one” is already wrong and after “animal doctor” only one more absolutely meaninglesse Classification of Infinitives:

  • Become: Infinitive Active past of “becoming”
  • need: Infinitiv Modalverb
  • should: Infinitiv Modalverb
  • be: 3. Person Singular conjunctiv 1 of “becoming”

You don’t have to think about it, because that makes no sense. It’s not a liability. Where do you see a passive?

Close and dispose!

However, one can make a series of modal verbs, for example:

  • must, may, wish, wish, and should be modal verbs.
  • I wouldn’t have driven him into town alone let’s go.

To “Veterinary” everything’s okay. Then, as you say, it becomes confusing. 😅

So “dein” brother has to decide now:

  1. Should he be a vet now?
  2. Does he have to be a vet now?
  3. Will he be a vet now?

I would to the guess: “My brother recommended me the cake after he had told me that he should be a vet.”

Declaration: He carries himself with the thought of wanting to become a vet.

In that sentence, the passive has nothing to look for! There is no passive from “becoming”.

What do you want to express in general with this sentence?

Depends on the context.
Either I love life and am aware (logical) of every breath, literally snatch it in me (drink it).
or they are Aerophage. This is actually around the swallowing of air when eating/driving, which goes far beyond the normal condition.

Well, I think this is back to Platon. A myth that people still like to use today. You want to Reasons know? Then look here: https://www.nationalgeographic.com/history/article/atlantis#:~:text=But%20they%20became%20greedy%2C%20petty,to%20sink%20into%20the%20sea.

Well, it must: but make sense. Languages Other Sinn is not a real language.

I would write: “My brother recommended the cake after he told me he wanted to become a vet.”

Then you have united conjunctive “will” as well as futur “will”.

You can’t have seen it in a text unless

  • the speaker was drunk or on drug.
  • the spokesman was German-learner, grammatically overwhelmed and therefore hopelessly confused.
  • the one who wrote that wanted to make fun and to demonstrate through this deliberate Verb-Chaos that in the German itself one can sometimes get completely confused.
