Dear class,
Good morning! I’m Li Ming. Now let me report the discussion about housework in our group.
Wu Jun cleans up rooms at the weekend and Jia Mei likes cooking dinner with her mother. Wang Ping sometimes washes clothes for her family. As for me, I usually help my father water the flowers.
In my opinion, it is necessary for us students to do some housework. By doing it, we can help our parents and understand them better. We’ll also learn to take care of ourselves. Besides, we can relax ourselves from hard work and develop our abilities.
That’s all. Thanks for listening!
