thebetternoneedparents’awasteofMs.Miller’sletterMr.Smith’sletterIt’severyone’sobligation/dutytodochoresathomeandkeepthehomeclean.Dearsir,我不理解為什么一些父母讓他們的孩子在家幫忙做家務。現在的孩子已經有足夠多的來自學校的壓力了。他們也沒時間去學做家務。做家務是浪費他們的時間。我們能否只讓他們做好學生分內的事？為了取得好的成績，進一所好的大學，他們應把他們的時間花在學業上。并且，當他們長大一些時，他們將不得不做家務，所以對他們來說現在沒有必要做家務。在家里為孩子們提供一個干凈舒適的環境是父母的責任。反正我認為做家務不是太難。我不介意做它們。Ms.MillerDearSir,

我認為對孩子們來說，學會如何做家務和幫父母做家務是很重要的。僅在學校取得好的成績是不夠的。現在的孩子太依賴他們的父母了。他們總是問：“你能為我拿這個嗎？”或“你能幫我做那個嗎？”做家務可以幫助孩子發展他們的獨立性，并且教會他們如何照顧自己。而且它能幫他們理解公平的概念。既然他們和父母住在一所房子里，他們應該知道每個人都應該盡自己的職責去保持房子的干凈和整潔。我鄰居家的兒子進了一所好大學，但是在大學第一年里，他不知道怎樣照顧自己。因此，他經常生病，并且成績下滑。孩子們越早學會獨立，對他們的未來就越好。Mr.SmithPutthefollowingexpressionsintoEnglish.浪費時間為了做某事在某事上花費時間4.長大沒必要做某事是某人的職責做某事為某人提供某物介意做某事依靠/取決于在…發揮作用生病awasteoftimeinordertodo…spend…on/doing…getolderThere’snoneedtodo…It’sone’sjob/dutytodo…providesth.forsb./providesb.withsth.minddoingdependonplay/doone’spartindoingsth.fallillPlayingcomputergamesisawasteoftime.Thereisnoneedforhimtosweeptheflooreveryday.Idon’tmindsweepingthefloor.PeterspendstwohoursonEnglishhomework.Inordertokeephealthy,Iexerciseeveryday.If
