二．完形填空（每题1分，共15分）

Dear Sir,

I do not understand why some parents make their kids 1 with housework and chores at home. Kids these days already have enough stress from school.

They do not have time 2 and do housework, too. Housework is a waste 3 their time. Could we just let them do their job as students? They should spend their time 4 schoolwork in order to get good grades and get into a good university. Also, when they get older, they will have to do housework so there is no 5 for them to do it now. It is the parents’ job to provide a clean and comfortable environment at home 6 their children. Anyway, I think doing chores is not so difficult. I do not mind 7 them.

Ms. Miller

Dear Sir,
