语篇能力强化训练[2019广东深圳中考]
When Justin Tong was a child, other kids felt sorry for him. His parents always had him doing lots of housework such as carrying out the rubbish and sending newspapers. But when he grew up, he was better off than his childhood friends and lived a happier and healthier life.
This is the finding of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 children in London. It showed that the children who had worked hard in childhood had a richer and a happier future. " Children who worked in the home or community gained competence and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society." said Daniel Brown, the psychologist who made the discovery. "And because they felt good about themselves, others felt good about them.”
Brown's study followed these children in great detail. Interviews were repeated at ages of 25, 31 and 47. Under Brown, the researchers compared the children's mental-health scores with their childhood-activity scores. Points were awarded for part-time jobs, housework, effort in school, and ability to deal with problems.
Working -- at any age -- is important. Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility, independence, confidence and competence - -the underpinnings of emotional health. They also help him understand that people must cooperate and work toward common goals. The most competent adults are those who know how to do this.
Yet work isn't everything. As Tolstoy once said, "One can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love, to work for the person one loves and to love one's work."

Letter A
Young people are always told that they should make the most of their time, and that they will never be as free again. So, my question is -- why fill up all this free time with housework? Parents expect their children to get good grades, be good at sports, and be popular with other kids. However, there is not enough time in the day to do these things and then do housework as well. It's not fair to expect the teenagers to give up their precious time to do boring housework. Parents and children both have jobs. Parents' jobs are in the workplace. Their children's jobs are at school.
The only difference is that parents get paid and children don't. Parents say that they make their kids do housework to teach them responsibility. But this is just a trick. Parents trick their kids into doing housework because they are lazy.
Yours,
Overloaded
Letter B
Both parents and children have jobs. The parent' job is to go to work to earn money. The child' job is to go to school. But we all get hungry. Someone has to cook the meals and clean up afterward. We all wear clothes that get dirty. Someone has to wash them, iron(熨平) them, and put them away. Children work from 9 until 4. Parents work from 8 until 6. Sure, after 4 o'clock, children have home-work. But after 6, parents have homework, too. They have to do the shopping, go to the bank, pay the bills, and help their kids with their own homework!
I think it's only fair that the teenagers help out a bit at home. They might not like it, but it's good for them. It teaches them how to look after themselves. This is really useful when 5____.
Sincerely,
Overworked

Many kids help their parents with chores, such as doing the dishes, cleaning the living room and taking out the rubbish. And some kids get money or other rewards(奖赏) such as more computer time by doing chores.
But some people do not think that kids should get rewards by doing chores. Susie Walton, an expert, believes that by rewarding kids, parents are sending a message that work isn't important unless you can get something. "Running any kind of family is a team work," Walton says. "A home is a living place for everyone in the family. It's important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities in the house.”
Other people believe that getting money or other rewards makes kids do chores happily and it also teaches them real world lessons about what we need to do to make money. There are also now apps(应用软件). With the Chore-Monster app, kids can get points and online gifts by doing chores. Kids can change them into real life rewards either online or in the real world. "We hope kids can do more chores so they can get more rewards," one man says.
What do you think? Should kids get rewards for doing chores? Or should kids help do chores without getting anything?
Write a 200-word reply and send it to us. The last day for replies is April 10th. If you want to read more ideas about this topic, you can click here.

A. kids should do more chores than parents

My mother is cool -- much cooler than most people. I give her full credit for making me the person who I am today. To thank her, I'd like to share some of the things she taught me.
__1__
No matter how hard things got, my mom could always joke about them. It has taught me things are never, ever, end-of-the-world kind of bad. I’m sure this has made me a more relaxed person.
__2__
My mother made her own clothes she felt like wearing. Soon enough, people asked her to make clothes, and it turned into a full-time business. That shows me how you can set up your own business by expressing yourself truthfully.
__3__
As a creative, my mother always encouraged us to do imaginative things for enjoyment and discouraged TV. We dressed up in costumes, drew pictures, and sang at the top of our lungs. Today, I am a very fun person to be with.
__4__
My mom has always pushed me towards becoming independent. Not for her good, but for mine. I made my own decisions without her trying to manage me. Because of this, I grow up to be completely independent.
__5__
Growing up, I've made my fair share of mistakes. Instead of saying "I told you so", my mom always let me work things out myself. She was also g there to help me pick up the pieces, if I ever needed help.
For all that you've done and everything that you are -- thank you, Mom!

Help with Some Housework
It is reported that children who love doing chores have a better future and are easy to feel happy. As for me, I usually sweep the floor, take out the rubbish, wash my clothes and do the dishes at home. When I am free, I’d like to water the flowers and cook some easy meals for breakfast. It's interesting to cook food.
Different people have different opinions about this. Some people say that there is no need to do housework. They think it's a waste of time. In my opinion, it's quite important for children to do some housework. Firstly, it can develop our independence. Children these days depend on their parents too much. If we learn to do housework, we can take care of ourselves when we get old in the future. Secondly, it's not just parents’ job to provide a clean and comfortable environment. Everyone should play a part in doing housework. The earlier we learn to be independent, the better it is for our future.
