三、阅读理解(共20小题,计40分)
A
I have two children and I make them dohousework.However,my mother-in-law(婆婆)doesn't agree with me.She thinks I'm too harsh.In her opinion,it is adults'job to do housework.
My family is made up of four family members.No one in the family is more importantthan another,so each member should help with chores.I don't ask my children to do the samechores,because their ages are different.
At the end of the day,after they finish playing with their toys,I ask them to put the toysaway.If they don't,they will have to say goodbye to their toys.I expect my children to sweepthe floor,set the table and help fold their own clothes.I don't think I'm asking too much.I know they are tired after a long day's study at school,but that's life—harsh but real.I don'twant to pay them for doing some chores.They live in the house,so they should help out withsome things in the house.No one is going to pay them for cleaning up their rooms later in lifeand I'm not about to start doing it now.
Some parents protect their children too much from anything unpleasant(使人不愉快的)and make their children's lives too comfortable and safe,but I'm not interested in that way.Ihope my children are able tolook after themselves and can be independent early.

One possible version:
Nowadays, many children don’t like doing chores. Last week, we had a discussion about if kids should do chores at home. Some students think kids should do chores at home because doing chores can develop their independence and learn to take care of themselves. They can understand the idea of fairness. We all live in one house with our parents so everyone should do a part in keeping it clean and tidy.
But some students think kids shouldn’t do chores at home. They think kids have too much pressure at school. And they think it is a waste of time. They can learn to do it when they grow up. It’s parents’ job to provide a clean and comfortable environment for kids.
What’s your ideas?
