Writing
Write a passage about what you can do and what you cannot do when your parents are away.
Step 1: Read the passage again and make lists of what Zheng Chenyu does when his parents are away.
I can wake up on time.
I cannot make breakfast.
Step 2: Make a list of what you can do and cannot do when your parents are away.
Step 3: Now join the sentences with although, but or so… that.
Step 5: Share your passage with your classmates.
I will miss my parents, but I think I can look after myself very well.
Step 4: Write a conclusion to the sentences.
I can wake up on time, although I cannot make breakfast.
Possible answer:
There are many things to do around the house when my parents are away. I can do some of them. For example, I can get up on time. That’s very important, because I do not want to be late for school! I can also make my bed, although I often don’t do it. I have a lot of homework every day, and I go to bed late. I am so tired that I cannot get up early enough to make my bed.
I can go shopping for food, but I prefer to eat at the noodle shop, as I am not a very good cook. But I do cook at home sometimes because it is cheaper. I can wash the dishes, although it is the task I dislike most. I also dislike throwing out the rubbish, but it is better than washing up because it doesn’t take long to do. I can also wash my clothes, but I can’t iron them. Although my clothes are clean, they look a bit messy. It’s all a lot of work, but I am happy that I can look after myself and that my parents do not need to worry about me very much.
When you write your passage, you can start with a question. Think of your first answer to it, and think of an example. Then think of the opposite answer, and think of an example as well. Try to present both answers and then write a conclusion.
1. on business
2. hand in
3. unable to do sth.
4. I liked the games so much that I played until midnight.
5. Although they loved me, I felt a bit unhappy with them.
