This is my last year at school, and I work hard to pass my final exams successfully. As I am very busy, I can't help my parents much in keeping the house.
But still I have some household duties. Every day I do my room and my bed, wash up dishes, dust the furniture and usually go to the baker's after I have dinner.
I buy some brown and white bread, biscuits and cakes there. The shop is not far from our house and it doesn't take me long to do everyday shopping.
Once a v/eek I help my mother to do all other work about the house. We wash our linen, iron and mend it, clean the flat. We beat the dust out of the carpets, vacuum the floors and polish them. It's not difficult to keep the flat tidy if you do your rooms regularly. This is my usual round of duties. But sometimes I have some other things to do.
When my mother is ill or away from home, I do the cooking and the washing up, the buying of food and the planning of meals. I am not a good cook, but my vegetable soup is always tasty. I can also boil an egg or fry some meat. I also lay the table and clear away the dishes. If I'm too busy or can't do these things, all the duties are organized among other members of our family.
Sometimes I have to visit everyday services: hairdresser's, shoemaker's, tailor's, dry-cleaner's, photographer's. At the hairdresser's I have my hair cut and waved. At the shoemaker's I have my shoes and boots repaired, at the photographer's I have my photos taken. Service is generally good, but in some cases it leaves much to be desired.
As I have to prefer for my exams and don't have much time, I would like to share my household duties with my brother. He helps to fix and repair some things. For example, he repairs electrical appliances when they are out of order. He has already repaired our mother's electric iron, my desk lamp and his own shaver.
When I stay with my grandparents on the countryside,I sweep the floors and wash them, feed the chickens, collect the eggs and weed the vegetable-beds. My grandfather and grandmother are elderly people and need care and attention, that's why I pefer to help them. All in all, I enjoyed this work very much.
What makes us different? This question we ask ourselves more than once! Every man is good in his own way. Someone draws Horsch, and who is well poetKto do not like to play sports, and for whom it is a sport all his life! Each person lichnost.I each have pros and cons. You can not be the same, we may be similar, but not identical.They say, "How many people in the world, so many opinions" Be not like the others, it's great. After all, if you know that you're the only one you and nobody is ever going to replace, it's great!
Мы провели в горах чудеснейший день.
Когда мы вернулись, было уже довольно поздно, почти семь часов, но мама догадалась, что мы запоздаем, и сготовила обед точно к нашему приезду; аппетитный и горячий, он очутился на столе, как раз когда мы вошли в дом. Правда, сначала ей пришлось подать папе мыло и полотенце и вычистить ему костюм, потому что папа на рыбалке всегда умудряется бог знает как перепачкаться. Это немного задержало маму.
