Should parents ask their children to do chores? They think that children are too young to cook or clean for themselves or their parents. But many people believe that children can learn a lot from doing regular chores. Parents should help children learn to do the housework that they will have to do when they live on their own.
Most experts(专家)do agree. Parents shouldn't, of course, ask a schoolboy to cook when he is doing his homework. If the child has activities after school, the time left to do chores may be short.
When a child does what his parents ask him to do happily, he will probably have the feeling of growing up. Chores can be useful. They are a teaching tool(工具). Parents use the tool to teach children, so that they can care for themselves some day. If parents keep a clean house, children won't find any reason to do chores.
A. And they also give children a sense of responsibility, importance and confidence.
B. Parents must make children understand how hard they work.
C. However, the chores should suit (适合于)children.
D. Doing chores can help children get better grades.
E. Some believe that children should not do chores.
F. Perhaps more chores on weekends can be helpful.

What do you do when you come across a problem while doing your homework? Andy would take out his smart phone, open a special app and searched the problem. Answers soon appeared on the screen.
Nowadays, many students do homework with the help of the Internet like Andy. They search for information online, use apps or discuss through social networks like QQ and WeChat.
“It's convenient.” Andy said. “You also learn by seeing how others work them out.”
“It also improves students' abilities.” said John, another student. He said it's true for new types of homework.
John's Chinese teacher often asks students to give speeches on great authors. When it comes to John's turn, he usually searches online, picks out certain stories and makes PowerPoint presentations.
“I've become skilled at finding information online and using Microsoft Office,” Wang said.
However, many students think this trend (趋势) also brings up problems. Some students just copy the answers online without thinking. They become lazy.
A head teacher in Andy and John's school said that knowing how to use the Internet is important. The key is to have good self-control.
“No matter how difficult the problem is, think about it independently (独立地) first,” the teacher said. “Be sure to understand the reasons behind the answers, or you won't make progress. If you don't have confidence about your self-control, ask your parents for help.”

Do you know that a student can produce up to 240 pounds of school waste and lots of waste gas (气体) during a term? This includes transportation, food, paper, pens, pencils and so on.
Transportation Some parents drive their kids to school every day. We all know waste gas from cars is a main cause air pollution. If parents who live in a neighborhood can take turns to drive their kids to school each day, that'll be better. Another way of going green is to walk to school if students live near their schools.
Food It's surprising that only one elementary school can produce up to 19,000 pounds of lunch waste each year. That's only one school. One way to help take care of the environment is to stop using plastic bags. There are all kinds of environmental boxes for students to put their food in.
Paper, pens and pencils Lots of paper is thrown away by American students. They throw away about 1.6 billion pens every year. They waste many pens and chemicals (化学药品) in them are bad for the environment. Many more pencils are thrown away than pens. Pencils are made from trees, so if more pencils are thrown away, more trees will be cut down. So students should reuse (再使用) paper, pens and pencils instead of throwing them away.
Backpacks As fashion comes and goes, almost every kid needs a new backpack every year. They can save lots of money and materials if they reuse the same schoolbags each year.
