香港学生的“劳动周”
Thursday一练：
People often say, “The more you work the land,the better your crops (庄稼) will be.” That's the spirit our school embraced(推崇) during our recent Growing Week!
In the morning, we went to our rooms. Then,the coaches showed us how to make the bed and where to put our things. At first, we were confused(疑惑的) as to why we needed to learn such simple tasks. But the teacher said, “Even simple things can be difficult until you know how to do them.”
At lunchtime, the teachers told us, “You have to wash the dishes after eating." At first, we didn't do it very well. So, the teachers showed us the right way to clean them. After that, the dishes looked much better!
In the evening, the teachers taught us how to cook rice.We made some mistakes(错误) at first,but finally, we got it right! We were so happy,because we were eating food cooked by ourselves.That night, we didn't waste (浪费) any rice.
Time went by quickly, and Growing Week ended. Now, I think it's time for me to help out more at home.
