She saw Buddy, their dog, who was happy to see her and wanted to go for a walk. But Lily just wanted to sit down and relax. Her brother Sam had just finished his homework and was about to water the plants in the garden. He saw Lily sitting and asked, “Aren’t you going to walk Buddy?” Lily said, “I’m really tired today. Can it wait?” Sam looked at the sad Buddy and said to Lily, “Okay, but remember, Buddy needs his walk. ” A few days went by, and both Lily and Sam began to miss doing their chores. The house started to look a bit messy, and the garden wasn’t as neat as before. One morning, they both saw how messy things were. Lily said to Sam, “We should do something about this. ” Together, they spent the day cleaning the house and taking care of the garden. Buddy finally got to go for his walk, and the garden looked nice again. When their parents came home, they were surprised and pleased to see the house looking good. “What made you both decide to do all of this?” they asked. Lily and Sam looked at each other and smiled. “We realized that if we work together, things get done faster, and it’s more fun,” Lily said. 1．What did Buddy want to do when Lily came home? A．Buddy wanted to eat. B．Buddy wanted to play with Lily. C．Buddy wanted to go for a walk. D．Buddy wanted to sleep. 2．Why did Sam ask Lily if she was going to walk Buddy? A．Because it was Lily’s turn to walk Buddy. B．Because Sam was too busy to walk Buddy. C．Because Sam didn’t like walking Buddy.

C．It’s important to do your homework before playing. . D．Working together makes work easier and more enjoyable. When facing challenges, I often turn to my mom for help, “Could you help me?” However, her answer always is, “Do it yourself, dear.” This used to make me feel sad, leading me to think of her as a lazy mother. For example, one day, I invited some friends over, and my bedroom was in a mess. Books were all over the table and floor, and I had forgotten to make my bed. I asked my mother for help to tidy up, but she seriously replied, “Do it yourself, girl.” I had to clean the room myself. Luckily, when my friends arrived, my bedroom was clean enough. Because of my mother’s laziness, I have to wash my clothes, keep my room clean, and even help with household chores. I even have to go to the dentist by myself when I have a toothache. I do all these things reluctantly with a voice in my heart, “What a cold and lazy mom I have!” As I grow up, I have understood my mother little by little. Her so-called laziness was actually a way to build my independence. I realized that her words, “A lady can’t be lazy, or she will be crazy. Work can make you sunny.” were the truth. It’s really hard to do everything on my own, but I have learned a lot. Through the early hard times, I learned the importance of depending on myself and got important life skills. Now, I am thankful for the lessons my mother taught me, as they have shaped me into a stronger, more hard-working person. 4．How does the writer feel when her mother says “Do it yourself” at first?

For some children, doing chores is boring. For many parents, getting their children to help with some of the housework is also one big headache. However, a Malaysian mother Kate found a good way. Kate thought out a reward system (奖励制度) for her two sons at home and posted it online. She made a list of chores and gave her kids money if they finished the tasks. She also opened a mini mart at home for her kids. Her sons could buy shacks at her mini mart. Because of this system, Kate’s children are now more willing to do their chores. Her post has got over 15000 likes and has been shared over 27000 times online. Many parents have begun to imitate her. In other words, they use the same way to teach their children. In fact, doing chores can play a very important role in children’s development. Firstly, chores teach children basic skills for living, like cooking, cleaning and so on. Secondly, doing chores is a good way to help children keep healthy. Thirdly, doing chores makes parents and children get closer. Finally, a child can learn to take care of himself by helping with the housework. 8．How did Kate encourage (鼓励) her kids to do chores? A．By giving them money. B．By giving them likes.

And some kids get money or other rewards from their parents, such as playing computer games for 20 minutes. But some people do not think that kids should get rewards for doing chores. One of them is Susie Walton, a parenting educator. She believes that if kids get rewards, they will think that work isn’t worth (值得) doing unless they can get something. For example, kids won’t sweep the floor if they see it is dirty. But they will clean the floor if their parents reward them for it. Susie said, “A home is a living place for everyone in the family. It’s important for kids to see that it’s all the family members’ job to keep their homes clean.” Other people have different opinions (观点). They believe that money or other rewards can encourage (鼓励) kids to do more chores. It also teaches them a real world lesson that we need to work to make money. Now, there are also apps that encourage kids to do chores. The apps give kids points and gifts that can be used either online or in the real world. With the ChoreMonster app, kids get points after doing chores. Kids can exchange (交换) their points for real rewards, such as time to play video games or a trip to the mall. What do you think? Should kids be rewarded for doing chores? Or should kids help out with their homes without getting anything? 12．How does the writer start the passage? A．By giving some facts.

D．To show the writer’s views about doing chores. 二、任务型阅读 阅读下面材料，从方框中所给的A—E中选择正确的选项和段落匹配（其中有一项是多余选项），并回答5题（答案不超过20个单词）。 Helping others makes people feel good and happy.

We’ll have lots of time to make the card later.” I said. “For now, the hamster, Mr. Nibble, needs to live in a 23 place. “Shh, I am trying to 24 ,” Tex said, holding Mr. Nibbles to his ear. “He’s telling a secret (秘密).” “Ooh!” Indi whispered (小声说). “I want to know the secret.” Tex listened closely. “He wishes he could have a birthday party, but he doesn’t know 25 he was born (出生).” I 26 wanted to get the chore over, but Tex and Indi looked so hopeful that I said, “How about we just celebrate 27 birthday today?” “Hamster party! Hamster Party!” Indi and Tex cheered loudly. We could tell (辨别) Mr. Nibbles liked the 28 . And having our first-ever hamster party to 29 made our chore go by in a flash (转瞬间). Then, we started by making a normal-sized birthday card 30 Indi’s friend Lily and a teeny-tiny card for Mr. Nibbles. Next, we used paper to make 31 normal-size party hats for ourselves and a teeny-tiny hat for Mr. Nibbles. We found a list of safe food for hamsters 32 we made the cutest little cake. At last, we were ready to celebrate. Mr. Nibbles decided not to wear his party hat, but he 33 to light up (面露喜色) when we showed his card. He wiggled (扭动) his body 34 when we sang “Happy Birthday to You.” And he loved his cake so much that he stuffed (塞进) the whole thing in his 35 at once!

If you want   37 an independent (独立的) person, or you don’t want your parents to be too tired, do chores at home. I have a classmate 38 Li Ting. She is the only child in her family. Her parents love her so much that they don’t let her do any chores. On weekdays she gets up, has breakfast, goes to school, has lessons, comes back home, does her homework and goes to bed. On weekends, she only plays with her friends. So she doesn’t know how 39 chores. One day, her father was ill in hospital. Her mother had to take care of her father in the hospital and couldn’t cook meals for her for a week. Li Ting didn’t know how to cook meals.She had a lot of trouble 40 meals and often felt hungry. She only had instant noodles for meals. 五、短文填空 “Do the dishes. 41 (打扫) the floor. Take out the rubbish. 42 (叠) the clothes...” Do your parents say these things to you? Of course they do. Why? Well, someone has to do it. They are 43 (家务；杂务) — small everyday duties. You may get money for doing a chore or you may not. Parents and other people don’t always give orders. Sometimes they ask. How do you ask politely? Well, in English, the word “ 44 (能；可以)” is often used for requests. When your mom says “Could you please 45 (整理床铺)?” she is asking you “politely” to do a chore.   In fact, doing chores can help to develop children’s 46 (独立) and teach them how to 47 (照顾；照料) themselves. It can also help them to understand the idea of 48 (公平).  After all, they can’t 49 (依靠) their parents too much all the time. When asking for permission, you can also use the word “could”. For example, you can say “Could I...?” when you want 50 (借) something from others. 短文填空 Should parents ask their children to do housework? Some believe children should not do 51 (chore). They think that children have much stress from school and they are too young to cook or clean. But many people believe that children can learn a lot 52 it. Parents should help children learn to do the housework that they will have to do when they live on 53 (they) own. They also give children a sense of responsibility, importance 54 confidence. Most experts think that the housework should be suitable for children, such as 55 (sweep) the floor and taking out the rubbish. Parents shouldn’t ask a school boy to cook when he is 56 (do) his homework. If the child has activities after school, the time 57 (leave) to do housework may be short. Perhaps more housework on weekends can be 58 (help). When a child does what his parents ask him to do 59 (happy), he will probably have the feeling of growing up. Housework can be useful. It is 60 teaching tool. Parents use the tool to teach children, so that they can care for themselves some day. And please make sure parents also do housework. If parents don’t provide a clean house, children won’t find any reason to do housework. 六、书面表达 61．假如某报社正在以“We Should Do Chores at Home”为题进行征文比赛活动，请你根据表格中的提示内容用英语写一篇短文参加比赛。 现存现象 你常做的家务 你的体会和看法 许多学生不愿做家务，原因如下： 1. 认为做家务是父母的工作； 2. 做家务占用学习的时间。 ●整理床铺 ●浇花 ●打扫房间 ●倒垃圾 …… …… 要求：1. 表达准确，语句通顺； 2. 短文须包括所有提示内容，可适当发挥； 3. 词数80左右。 We Should Do Chores at Home ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试卷第8页，共9页 试卷第9页，共9页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ Unit 3 Could you please clean your room【B卷·培优卷】 一、阅读理解 Lily came home from school one day, feeling very tired.

D．To show the writer’s views about doing chores. 【答案】12．A 13．C 14．D 15．C 【导语】本文主要针对孩子做家务是否应获得奖励，给出了两种截然不同的观点。 12．细节理解题。根据“Many kids help their parents to do chores such as washing the dishes, cleaning the floors and taking out the rubbish in the house.”可知，作者陈述了孩子做家务的事实。故选A。 13．推理判断题。根据“Susie said, ‘A home is a living place for everyone in the family. It’s important for kids to see that it’s all the family members’ job to keep their homes clean.’”可知，苏珊认为做家务是孩子的责任，不应该给他们奖励。故选C。 14．主旨大意题。根据“They believe that money or other rewards can encourage (鼓励) kids to do more chores.”可知，第三段主要论述给孩子奖励的好处。故选D。 15．推理判断题。根据“What do you think?
