Tim is a 16-year-old boy and he studies in a high school. His parents tell him to study hard and they do everything for him. They wake him up at 6: 00 am, and after breakfast his father takes him to school by car. As soon as the young man comes home from school, the dinner is ready. Of course, he never does chores.
Once, Tim’s father would go to London on business for a year. Before leaving, he told his wife to look after their son well. The woman had to get up earlier and did all what her husband did before. Two months later, she was so tired that she was ill. The young man got into trouble at once. He couldn’t do housework. Even he didn’t know where to get on the bus.
Yesterday Tim’s mother found his shoes were worn out(穿烂了) and told him to buy a new pair. But he didn’t know how to choose right shoes. The woman had a sigh(叹息), gave him a shoe pattern(鞋样) and told him to buy shoes himself. With a policeman’s help, he found a shop. The shopkeeper brought some shoes and asked him to choose.

In some Western countries, many children do chores to get pocket money (零花钱). They usually start to do this when they are ten years old.
School students have to do homework and study for tests. They don’t have much free time on weekdays. They often do chores on weekends.
Young kids only do easy chores. So they don’t get much money. But that’s enough (足够的). Many of them only want to buy candy (糖果). And candy is cheap! They often help do the dishes, sweep the floor, or feed the pet cat or dog.
When they get older, they want to buy more and more things. They want things that are more expensive than candy. So they have to work harder! They often help their parents wash the family car, cut the grass, or cook meals.
Some jobs are a good way for kids to learn new things. For example, they can learn how to use a lawnmower (割草机) or how to cook. Of course, their parents help them at first.

四、任务型阅读。
Now more and more Chinese teenagers find life more difficult without their parents. They don’t know how to do housework, because their parents do almost everything for them at home.
Mary is 14 years old. One day her parents went on a trip, so she was alone at home. At first she thought she would be happy because her parents were not in. She could do everything that she liked. But when it was six o’clock in the afternoon, she felt hungry. “Oh, it’s time to have supper. Where can I get my food ” she said to herself. Later she found some meat and vegetables in the fridge (冰箱), but she didn’t know how to cook them. At last she could only go to a restaurant to eat.
Many teenagers have the same problem as Mary. So I think they should learn some life skills (技能), like cooking, cleaning up their rooms or dressing themselves. They shouldn’t depend too much on their parents.

We should do chores at home. Now many students don’t like doing chores at home. There are mainly two reasons. One is that they think it’s their parents’ job to do chores at home. The other is that they think doing chores takes up their time for study. But I think we should help do chores at home because our parents are busy with their work and often tired after work. I often do chores at home, like making the bed, watering flowers, cleaning the rooms, taking out the rubbish and doing the dishes. I think doing chores is relaxing. I also feel great to help my parents.
