  • 1. ·Passage B ·

    When I had something difficult to do, I used to ask my mom for help. But she always said, "Do it yourself, my dear. "I would get so angry. I thought she was the laziest mother in the world!

    For example, one day, I decided to invite some friends to my home. My bedroom was in a mess. Books, clothes and shoes were all over the table and ground. I didn't make my bed, either. I asked, "Could you please help me clean the room, Mom? " But she said seriously, "Do it yourself, my dear girl. I'm busy. You should do it yourself. "

    Because of my "lazy mom", I have to do many chores, such as washing my clothes and cleaning my room. I have to help my parents and my little sister. And I also have to go to the dentist by myself.

    It is really hard for me to do everything on my own, but I have learned a lot. As time goes by, I understand my mother. Thanks to her "laziness", I become clever and hard-working. Just as my mom always says, "A lady can't be lazy, or she'll be crazy. Work can make you sunny! "What a great mother! Don't you think so?
