Review and share
As a boy,like all other boys,I wanted to be a man.But my parents did everything for me.Actually,they managed every minute of my life.Although they loved me,I felt a bit unhappy with them.“Zheng Chenyu,do your homework!”“Practise the piano!"“Turn off the TV!”I became so bored with their orders that I wished they would leave me alone.
Well,my wish came true!Although my parents were very worried about leaving me,they had to go away on business for a few days.Now was my chance!I could have some fun at last!As soon as I got home from school the first day,I happily threw my schoolbag on the sofa and ate lots of snacks.Then I enjoyed an exciting film on TV,and after that I played computer games.I liked the games so much that I played until midnight.
The next morning I woke up late.I had to hurry to school without breakfast,but I
was still late.The teacher asked me for my homework,but I could not hand it in.With an empty stomach,I was unable to play basketball with my classmates!I felt tired and sleepy at school all day long.
When I got home,I tried to cook some rice,but I burnt it.I even dropped my father's cup when I was cooking!I found myself so bad at simple cooking tasks.I started to feel lonely.I wanted Mum and Dad to come home soon.Mum cooked such delicious food,and made sure I never forgot my homework.Dad always helped me with any difficult questions,and told funny jokes when I was unhappy.Then I realised being home alone was not always perfect.
When my parents came home,they were happy to find that I could cook and tidy up now.I told them my home alone story,and we all laughed.
