Many parents make their children do chores around the house. For some families, teaching children what to do and how to do chores is easy. But in other families, getting children to do some housework can be a very big problem.

It is a good idea for parents to teach their children at an early age that all family members must work together to make the house clean, and each person must do his or her share(份) of the work. We can do this by starting a plan of chores and responsibilities when children are young.

Chores are good for children even very young ones. Doing chores teaches children many important skills (技能 ) such as working together and being responsible. Jobs also teach children what is fair and doing things for others. The skills and values (价值) from doing chores will do good to children all their lives.

Little stream ran down from a high mountain through many villages and forests. Then it reached a desert. “ I went through so many difficulties. I should have no problem crossing the desert,” she thought. As she started, she found herself slowly disappearing into the sand. After many times, she still failed. “Maybe I can’t reach the ocean.” She said sadly to herself.

At this time, a deep voice said, “If a breeze (微风)can cross the desert, so can a river.” It was the voice of the desert. But the little stream answered, “ That’s because a breeze can fly, but I cannot.”

“That’s because you can’t give up what you are. Let yourself evaporate(蒸发) into the breeze, and it can take you across,” said the desert. “Give up what I am now? No! No!” The little stream could not accept this idea. “The breeze can carry the vapor(水汽) across the desert and let it leave as rain. The rain will form a river again,” said the desert, “ And whether you’re a river or vapor, your nature never changes.” Hearing this, this little stream went into the open arms of the breeze. It carried her to the next stage of her life.

The course of our lives is like the experience of the little stream. If you want to go through difficulties in your life to head for success, you should also change the way you are.
