Last month, our dog welcomed me1I came home from school. He wanted a walk, but I was too tired. I threw down my bag and went to the living room. The minute I sat down in front of the TV, my mom2.
"Could you please 3 the dog for a walk?" she asked.
"Could I watch one show first?" I asked. "No!" she replied4. "You watch TV 5 and never help out around the house! I can't work all day and do housework all evening. "Well, I work all day at school, too! I'm just as tired as you 6! I shouted back.
My mom did not say 7 and walked away. For one week, she did not do any housework and 8 did I. Finally I could not find a clean dish or a clean shirt.
The next day my mom came home from work 9 the house clean and tidy.
"What happened?" she asked in surprise.
"I'm so sorry, Mom. I finally understand 10 we need to share the housework to have a clean and comfortable home," I replied.
