1). This is my tenth year of schooling and I work hard to pass my final exams successfully in a year. 2). As I am very busy I can't help my parents much in keeping house.
3). But still I have some household duties. 4). Every day I do my room and my bed, wash up dishes, dust the furniture and take out the rubbish. 5). It is also my duty to buy bread and milk. 6). The shop is not far from our house and it doesn't take me long to do everyday shopping.
7). Once a week I help my mother to do all other work about the house. 8). We wash our linen, iron and mend it, clean the flat.
9). It's not difficult to keep the flat if you do your rooms regularly. 10). This is my usual round of duties.
11). When my mother is ill or away from home I do the cooking. 12). I am especially good at making vegetable soup and salads.
13). Sometimes I have to visit everyday services: hairdresser's, shoemakers', tailor's, dry cleaners', photographer's. 14). At the hairdresser's I have my hair cut and waved. 15). At the shoemakers' I have my shoes and boots repaired, at the photographer's I have my photo taken. 16). Service is generally good, but in some cases it leaves much to be desired.
17). My brother has his own duties at home. 18). He does the carpets with our electric-cleaner, and repairs electrical appliances when they are out of order.
19). Last year I was at my grandparents' in the village. 20). They are elderly people and need our care and attention. 21). During my stay there I swept the floors and washed them, fed the chickens, collected the eggs and weeded the vegetable-beds. 22). I didn't learn to milk the cow but I helped to feed the other animals lambs, sheep and pigs. 23). I enjoyed this work very much.
