Many parents make their children do chores around the house. For some families, teaching children [what to do and how to do chores is easy. But in other families, getting children to do some housework can be a very big problem.
It is a good idea for parents to teach their children at an early age that all family members must work together to make the house clean, and each person must do his or her share (份) of the work. We can do this by starting a plan of chores and responsibilities when children are young.
Chores are good for children—even very young ones. Doing chores teaches children many important skills (技能) such as working together and being responsible. Jobs also teach children what is fair (公平的) and doing things for others. The skills and values (价值) from doing chores will do good to children all their lives.

A. all the parents make their children do chores
B. it’s easy to teach children to do chores
C. some children think doing chores is difficult
D. it is different on teaching children to do chores among different families

C. each person
D. some families
24. Children can learn from doing chores.
A. working together with others
B. being responsible
C. Which is fair and doing things for others
D. A, B and C
25. Which of the following sentences is TRUE?

Most children don’t enjoy doing housework. They enjoy playing computer games rather than cleaning the rooms. But in Australia, Jim and Robert’s mother, Mrs. Black, has good and proper methods to get her children to do housework.
Here is an example.
“Mom, have you worked out next week’s housework? Let Jim and me choose the cards. I can’t wait. It’s fun!”
When Robert shouted out, his mother had already put all the cards on their big table. On the cards, there are some words like these, “sweep the floor, clean your bedroom, help mom cook, wash vegetables, make beds, feed the fish, cut the wood, clean the bathroom” and many others. Jim and Robert chose two cards for each day from Monday to Friday. Then they would hang them on the weekday task board. Jim likes to clean the bathroom, so he picked up the board “clean the bathroom”. Robert loves to make the bed so he picked up his favorite card. Jim again picked up “wash vegetables” and Robert chose “feed the fish”. Soon the two boys were happy to take away all the cards.
To help the children do housework, the ir mother thought hard and came up with this idea. Of course, the parents did the housework on the weekends and left Jim and Robert two days free.
26. From t he passage we know that most children like_________.

Dear Sir,
I think it is important for children to learn what to do chores and help their parents with housework. It’s not enough to just get ting good grades at school. Children these days depend on their parents
too many. They’re always asking, “Could you get this for me?” or “Could you help me with that?” Doing ch ores help to develop children’s independence and teaches them how to look after them. It also helps them to understand the idea of fairness. Since they live in one house with their parents, they should know that everyone should do their part in keep it clean and tidy. Our neighbors son got into a good college but during his first year, he had no idea how to take care for himself. As a result, he often fell in ill and his grades dropped. The earlier kids learn to be independent, better it is for their future.
