Do you like doing housework? Some students think doing housework is a waste of time. However, experts say doing housework is good for students.

First, doing housework can teach students important life skills. Many students depend on their parents too much. If they learn to cook, clean, and wash clothes, they can take care of themselves when they grow up.

Second, doing housework can make students responsible (有责任感的). When they help clean the house, they know they are part of the family. They will understand that everyone in the family should share the work.

Third, doing housework can help students relax. After a long day of studying, doing some physical work like sweeping the floor can make their brains rest.

So, parents should encourage their children to do housework from a young age. It is not just about work; it is about learning and growing.

Amazing animals are everywhere in the world. Let's learn about two of them.

The Elephant

The elephant is the biggest land animal. It has a long trunk (象鼻). The trunk is very useful. The elephant uses it to drink water, pick up food, and even take a shower! Elephants live in groups. They are very smart and friendly animals. They can remember things for a long time. People say "an elephant never forgets."

The Cheetah (猎豹)

The cheetah is the fastest land animal. It can run at a speed of over 100 kilometers per hour. It has a beautiful yellow coat with black spots (斑点). Cheetahs are carnivores (食肉动物). They eat other small animals. When they run, they use their long tails to keep balance (保持平衡).

Plants and animals make our earth beautiful. However, many of them are in danger now. We must protect them and their homes. We should not buy things made of ivory (象牙) or animal fur.
