(二)【导语】本文主要针对孩子做家务是否应获得奖励,给出了两种截然不同的观点。
Many kids help their parents to do chores such as washing the dishes, cleaning the floors and taking out the rubbish in the house. And some kids get money or other rewards from their parents, such as playing computer games for 20 minutes.
But some people do not think that kids should get rewards for doing chores. One of them is Susie Walton, a parenting educator. She believes that if kids get rewards, they will think that work isn’t worth (值得) doing unless they can get something. For example, kids won’t sweep the floor if they see it is dirty. But they will clean the floor if their parents reward them for it. Susie said, “A home is a living place for everyone in the family. It’s important for kids to see that it’s all the family members’ job to keep their homes clean.”
Other people have different opinions (观点). They believe that money or other rewards can encourage (鼓励) kids to do more chores. It also teaches them a real world lesson that we need to work to make money. Now, there are also apps that encourage kids to do chores. The apps give kids points and gifts that can be used either online or in the real world. With the ChoreMonster app, kids get points after doing chores. Kids can exchange (交换) their points for real rewards, such as time to play video games or a trip to the mall.
What do you think Should kids be rewarded for doing chores Or should kids help out with their homes without getting anything

“Come on, get out of bed,” says Dad. “I need your sheets.” Oh, right. It’s Saturday. Laundry day. Dad has a new idea. He doesn’t use the dryer anymore, at least in summer.

I also know that by hanging the laundry instead of using the dryer, we can save more energy. And that means we spend less and pollute less.” Dad is glad that I remember all that.
I’m quiet for a minute. I think I have to stop complaining(抱怨)about hanging the rest of the laundry.
