Cody was a very annoying (恼人的) kid. He always talked loudly during school and made jokes about others. So, when Miss Ellis told me to work together with him for the new research, I refused. But Miss Ellis asked me to give it a try. So today, I had to do the research with Cody.
“Emily, the door!” shouted Mom from the kitchen.
I didn’t want to open the door at all, but...
“Welcome, Cody. Come on in,” I opened the door and said.
Cody walked into my house and said hello to my family. He looked very polite (有礼貌的).Then I led him to my room.
“Wait, is that you?” He pointed at a picture of me on the wall and asked. In the picture, I only had a few teeth. And I looked a little funny.
“It’s my sister,” I replied, though I hated telling a lie (谎言).
“I heard you! The toothless girl is Emily,” said my sister Claudia.
“Haha, I knew it!” Cody said.
They both laughed.
Finally, we started to do the research. I thought it was going to be a long afternoon. But what happened then really astonished me.
We read, learned and discussed. Everything went well. Cody listened to me carefully, wrote down all the important points, and shared his opinions about something difficult.
After we finished our homework, Cody said goodbye to me and my family. What he did today changed what I thought of him. Maybe I should try to find more shining points (闪光点) of him.

【答案】例文
I Love Doing Housework
Housework is an essential part of our daily life. I often help out with various chores in my free time. I enjoy doing housework because it helps me develop a sense of responsibility and independence.
Last weekend, I got up early and cooked noodles for my parents. First, I boiled some water. Then, I put some noodles into the pot. About five or six minutes later, I placed them in the bowls and added some salt and oil. When my parents got up, they were surprised and praised me with a big smile.
It was the first time for me to cook for them. A little bit tired but happy, I felt proud of myself because I could take care of my parents. From this experience, I’ve also got a deeper understanding of my parents. I think it’s our duty to share some housework. As teenagers, we should take action to help around the house!
