Most students do not enjoy doing housework. Some of them think that cleaning the bathroom or cooking dinner for the family is boring. However, if you try the following ways, you will find that housework is not as boring as you think.
◆Learn to do small things
You should learn to do small things, for example, you can do the dishes, sweep the floor or make the bed. Part of growing up is to be able to take care of yourself. Doing some things around the house shows that you are becoming responsible(责任感的).
◆Divide(分担) housework among the family
In fact, it’s too tiring for one person to do all the housework alone. It’s good to divide housework into different parts. All the family members will do the housework together. Dividing housework among all the family members will make everyone’s job much easier.
◆Make it fun
Cooking is one part of housework. Cooking can be very fun if you put your heart into it. If you learn how to cook your favorite food, you will also get a feeling of satisfaction.

Most Chinese parents have great hope of their children. When children are born, their parents have planned everything for them. Many children in China are unhappy. They live a planned life and are made to fulfill the dreams that their parents have planned for them.
There are two sides to parents’ hope. The hope can encourage (鼓励) children to work harder for a better life. According to some studies, whether a child will be successful or not depends largely on his or her parents’ hope. However, unrealistic (不现实的) hope can be bad to children. Every child has his or her own thoughts and feelings. Parents’ hope can take children’s freedom away. Wise parents allow their children to have some freedom. They encourage their children to do things they like to do and never judge (评判) them only by their grades.
My parents’ hope of me is to be happy, kind and healthy. They never put too much pressure (压力) on me, ★ . However, I have my own dreams. I will never give up because my parents always encourage me when I am in trouble.
In a word, I think parents’ hope is necessary. However, parents should not give their children too much pressure. Parents must make sure their hope of their children is realistic so that their children will not lose their confidence.

A. realize B. fail C. control D. provide

A. parents’ judgement B. different ideas about parents’ hope
C. children’s freedom D. children’s thoughts and feelings
33. Which can we put into ★ in the third paragraph
A. so I always feel unhappy B. but I never lose hope
C. and I have a happy life D. but I thanked them greatly
34. Which of the following is true
A. Parents’ hope is unnecessary according to the writer.
B. All parents’ hope is good for the growth of children.
C. Parents’ hope always makes children have more freedom.
D. Parents should encourage children to do what they like to do.
35. The passage is mainly written for ________.
A. friends B. parents C. children D. students
D

【76题答案】
【答案】例文：
Dear Sir or Madam,
I think that teenagers like me should help their parents with housework.
First, doing housework makes us independent. We can’t depend on our parents all the time. So we should learn how to take care of ourselves now. Second, doing housework is a kind of physical exercise. It helps us stay healthy and strong. Third, since we live in a house with our parents, it’s fair for us to work together and make the house clean and comfortable.
In my opinion, doing housework helps us learn life skills and understand the idea of fairness. So I think teenagers should learn to enjoy doing chores with their parents.
Yours,
Li Hua
