In Miss Lee's class, the students are asked to discuss the topic "Do you do housework at home?" in groups. Here's what the students of Group One say.
Tommy:No, I have no time. Schoolwork almost takes all of my time! How can I spend such precious (宝贵的) time doing housework? Helen: I help my mother with our housework, but she must pay me. I don't enjoy doing that. It doesn't do any good to me in any way. Linda: Doing some housework not only helps my parents but also helps myself. It is a chance for me to take a break from my schoolwork and to learn some skills for my future. Also, it's a chance to show my love and care for my parents. Emily: To tell you the truth, I hardly ever do housework at home. My parents say a nice girl should learn to do housework if she wants to be a good wife(妻子) in the future, but I don't think so. Why can't I hire(雇佣)a housekeeper then? |
