Maybe you can think about how grandma usually cleans up.
I’m so glad my grandparents are coming this weekend! But I didn’t quite understand what my mom meant by “grandma clean”.
2b Read the conversation and answer the questions.
1. Did Peter’s grandparents visit his new home before? Why do you think so?
2. What does “grandma clean” mean?
3. Why does Helen want to go to the flower shop?
4. What do you usually do for your grandparents?
1. Did Peter’s grandparents visit his new home before? Why do you think so?
Check your answers!
No, they haven’t. Because Peter says, “I can’t wait to show them our new house!” This means it will be their first time visiting the new house.
2. What does “grandma clean” mean?
It means grandma has a high standard(标准) for cleanliness, and we still need to tidy up.
She wants to buy flowers for Grandma because Grandma loves flowers.
3. Why does Helen want to go to the flower shop?
4. What do you usually do for your grandparents?
I often help them clean their house, talk to them, or cook for them. Sometimes I also play chess with my grandfather.
Oh, I now understand what “grandma clean” means. It means being very, very clean!
Let me write down all the tasks that we need to be done.
