Do you get paid for doing housework?Does it sound like a good idea?Listen to what some students say.
I don't have much time for housework because of study.But I still try to help out.My parents “ pay ” me with kind words.This makes me feel so good.I always want to do more the next time.

When I was little,I helped with the cleaning.Now I'm quite busy studying but I still help with the housework on weekends S.My parents would “ pay ” me with a pat(轻拍)on the head.That was enough for me.I never thought about getting money.Why should I get paid for housework?Who pays my parents?

I used to be very hard-working at home when I had time.I did everything there was to do.But I didn't ask for pay.I never thought about it.Now I would make a deal with my parents.I'd make sure I got paid for my work.Kids need to earn a 1 it tle money,don't they?

Your opinion:

One possible version: I usually help my parents with housework, but I don't expect to get paid. My parents always say "thank you" when I clean my room or help with the dishes, and that makes me feel happy. It's not about money for me; I just want to help my family. Maybe if I did a big job, I would ask for a small reward, but it's not really necessary
