Unit 3 Could you please clean your room
P19 3a
Last month, our dog (welcome) me when I (come ) home from school. He wanted a walk, but I was too ( tire ) I threw down (I) bag and went to the living room. The minute I sat down in front of the TV, my mom came over. “Could you please (take) the dog for a walk” she asked.
“Could I watch one show (one)” I asked. “NO!” she replied
(angry ). “You watch TV all the time 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, (either)! I’m just as tired you
are!” I shouted back. My mom did not say (something ) and walked
away. For one week, she did not do ( some) (housework ) and
neither did I. Finally, I could not find a clean dish (and) a clean
shirt. The next day, my mom came home from work ( find )the house
clean and tidy. “What happened” she asked in surprise.“I’m so sorry,
Mom. I finally understand that we need (share ) the housework
(have ) a clean and comfortable home,” I replied.
P22 2b
Dear Sir,
I don’t understand why some ( parent ) make their kids
(help )with housework and chores at home. Kids these (day ) already
have enough stress from school. They don’t have time ( study ) and
do housework, too. Housework ( be) a waste of their time. Could we
just let them (do ) their job as students They should spend their
time on schoolwork in order to get good (grade ) and get into a good university. Also, when they get older, they will have to do
(housework )so there’s no need for (they) to do it now. It is the (parent ) job to provide a clean environment at home for their
( child). And anyway, I think doing chores (be) not so difficult. I don’t mind (do ) them.
Mr. Smith
Dear Sir,
I think it is (importance ) for children ( learn ) how (do ) chores and help their parents housework. It’s not enough just get good grades at school. Children these ( day) depend on
their parents too much. They’re always asking, “Could you get this for
me” or “Could you help me with that” Doing chores (help ) to
develop ( child) independence and teaches them how to look themselves. It also helps them to understand the idea of fairness. Since
they live in one house with (they) parents, they should know that everyone should do their part in (keep) it clean and tidy. Our (neighbor ) son got into a good college but during his (one) year,
he had no idea how (take ) care of himself. As a result, he often
fell ill and his ( grade ) dropped. The earlier kids learn to be independent, better it is for their future.
Ms. Miller
Unit 4 Why don’t you talk to your parents
P27 3a
Dear Mr. Hunt,
My problem is I can’t get with my family. Relations
between my parents have become difficult. They fight a lot, and
I really (not like) it. It’s the only communication
they have. I don’t know if I should say anything to them about
this. When they argue, it’s like a big, black cloud
( hang ) over our home. Also, my (old ) brother is not
very nice to me. He always (refuse ) to let me
(watch ) (I ) favorite TV show. Instead he watches
whatever he ( want ) until late at night. I don’t
think this (be) fair. At home I always feel
(alone) and nervous. Is that normal What can I do
Sad and Thirteen
Dear Sad and Thirteen,
It’s not easy being ( you ) age, and it’s normal to
have (this ) feelings. Why don’t you (talk )
about these feelings your family If your
(parent ) are having problems, you should offer to help. Maybe
you could do more (job ) around the house so that they
have more ( time ) for proper (communicate ) .
Secondly, why don’t you sit down and communicate with your
brother You shoul d explain that you don’t mind him
(watch ) TV all the time. However, he should let you
( watch ) your favorite show. I hope you’ll ( feel )
better about yourself in future.

Many of (they) are learning exam skills so that they can get into a good high school and later a good university. (Other ) are practicing sports so that they can compete and win. However, this

activities are important for my (child) future. I really want them (be ) successful. ” However, the (tire) children don’t get home
until after 7:00 p.m. They have a quick dinner, and t hen it’s time
homework.
Linda Miller, a mother of three, knows all about such stress. “In some
(family), competition starts very young and continues until the kids get
older,” she says. “Mothers send (them) small kids to all kinds of (class ). And they are always comparing them other children. It’s
crazy. I don’t think that’s fair. Why don’t they just let their kids
( be ) kids People shouldn’t (push )their kids so hard.”
Doctors say too (many) pressure is not good for a child’s
development. Dr. Alice Green says all these activities can cause a lot of
stress for children. “Kids should have time ( relax) and think for themselves, too. Although it’s normal (want ) successful children,
it’s even more important to have happy children.”

places, the government has also (build) new schools and sent
teachers from the cities (help.)
“I noticed that’s true of my hometown,” adds Zhong Wei. “Children have
learned (read ) and count at my old primary school since the mid-
20th century. But now the buildings ( be) really old. I hear
they’re going to (build) a new school there.” Zhong Wei thinks
such developments are good, and he also knows that his hometown cannot
always ( stay) the same.
According Zhong Wei, however, some things will never
(change ) . “In my hometown, there was a big old tree opposite the school.
It is still there and has become quite a symbol of the place. Most of the
children in my time liked to play together under that big tree, especially
during the summer holidays. It was such a happy childhood. Our hometown has (leave) many soft and sweet memories in (we) hearts.”
