How about the teenagers in big cities Here is a survey . We asked 4,000 teenagers in China several questions . Half of them come from big cities like Beijing , Shanghai and Guangzhou . The others are from small villages . We made a diagram of the result of our survey . Let ’ s have a look at it .
We found out that teenagers from small villages do more chores than those from big cities . Maybe it is because they live a harder life . Our advice to parents in big cities is that parents should give their children some chores to do .
Doing chores teaches teenagers to take care of themselves .

Teens will finally grow up some day , leaving their parents and facing the challenges in life alone , so they should learn basic life skills and form good working habits .
The government has been trying to pay attention to the importance of hardworking spirit education (劳动教育). But this has been overlooked in recent years . Many teens do not value the importance of working hard . There is a teenager girl named Nancy : She never helps out around the house . Once her mother was on vacation for a week , leaving her alone at home . When her mother came home from vacation , she could not find a clean dish or a clean shirt.
Schools play an important role in teaching students about the value of working hard . Primary and middle schools should provide students with hardworking spirit courses every week . To our joy , some schools have provided each class with a piece of field to plant their favorite vegetables. For example , No .38 Middle School in
Hefei , set up a 500-square- meter farm on an open platform (路大平台) of their teaching building . Each class is asked to grow and pick vegetables there .
Parents should also encourage children to learn how to do chores at home . Teens should master one or two life skills every year . These skills can include cooking, washing their own clothes and tiding their rooms. The basic skills may help teens to solve the problems they will meet in the future .
11.What does the underlined word “ overlooked ” mean in Chinese

One possible version :
Help with Some Housework
It is reported that children who love doing chores have a better future and are easy to feel happy . As for me , I usually sweep the floor , take out the rubbish , wash my clothes and do the dishes at home . When I am free , I’d like to water the flowers and cook some easy meals for breakfast . It ’ s interesting to cook food .
However , different people have different opinions about this . Some people say that there is no need to do housework . They think it’s a waste of time . In my opinion , it’s quite important for children to do some housework . Firstly , it can develop our independence . Children these days depend on their parents too much . If we learn to do housework , We can take care of ourselves when we get old in the future . Secondly , it ’ s not just parents ' job to provide a clean and comfortable environment . Everyone should play a part in doing housework . The earlier we learn to be independent , the better it is for our future .
