It not only keeps your home cleaner, but also teaches your kids skills. It will be helpful to them in the future. How can you make your kids do housework? Here are some ideas. Start the chore with them. Parents often make a common mistake. They expect their kids to know how to do housework themselves. Picking their toys up may seem like a job at first. However, your kids may not understand how to put them away. What should you do? Instead of scolding (责骂) them, try asking if they need help. Help them start the work, and then let them finish it. Everyone needs to have a sense of responsibility (责任感). When teaching kids to do chores, an important thing is to tell them that doing housework is everyone’s job. It’s very important to give kids the right housework. A difficult job may make your kids easily give up, while a very easy job may cause your kids to feel bored soon. Make doing housework become a good habit. From an early age, you need to teach your kids the importance of doing housework at home. Little by little, kids will understand their responsibilities of keeping their homes clean. Finally, doing housework will become a habit. 21.

To show the difficulties kids face in doing housework. C. To give parents advice on getting their kids to do housework. D. To show parents the importance of doing housework themselves. C In life, a goal can show us the way to success. Then how can we set and reach life goals? What are life goals? Life goals are what we want to reach. They are meaningful. They are personal plans, but they can be shown in many different ways. Why should we set goals in life? We all have dreams. We know what makes us happy and what we would love to try out. It is a useful way to set clear goals. First, it can tell us what to do. Second, if we know what we want to be clearly, we will be in the right direction. Third, it can make us live a happy and meaningful life. How do we set life goals? Here is an example. Lisa wants to be a teacher. She sets her goal as “starting her own school by the end of the year”. It isn’t a simple goal like “helping her brother with his homework”. Though her goal is difficult to reach in a short time, she will try her best. The clearer our goals are, the better results we will get. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 26.

You can exercise in the park, take a walk there, or just sit in the park. ____32____ Now more and more young Chinese are falling in love with spending time in parks. 25-year-old Cheng Yuyan comes from Shanghai.
