ТОПИК 1
There are certain things in life, which you have to do whether you like it or not. One of such things is household chores, doing which is a necessity. It’s what someone in the family has to do every day in spite of his wish or desire. You can hardly find a person who doesn’t like comfort, delicious food, clean and tidy clothes. All these things need somebody’s attention and doing them is called housework.
They say that doing housework is boring and, besides, it takes a lot of time with a hardly visible result. In my opinion the best way to do many things about the house is by splitting the job among the family members. If every member of the family does his bit about the house, then keeping it isn t difficult or boring, and proves the proverb «Many hands make light work». But it’s only in theory, and it may be different in practice. Certainly I have some household chores. There are some things which I can’t avoid doing. For instance, my regular chore is cleaning my room. Generally, I do it once a week, on Sunday. I can’t say that I’m a messy person, but as I am very busy during the week at school and doing my homework in the afternoons, I hardly clean my room at all on weekdays and that’s why by the end of the week it looks like a storehouse with piles of books, cassettes, discs and my clothes on every chair. As a matter of fact I usually like to have all my things at hand and I don’t want to put them in their right places each time I have used them. Another thing which I have to do daily is washing up. It has been my duty for years.
Going on short shopping rounds for some foodstuffs is my favourite chore. In fact it is the only thing which I like doing about the house. When I am sick and tired of doing my homework I enjoy having a walk outside and eating an icecream or a cake on the way. At present we are a fairly large family by modern standards. There are six of us, and it means a lot of housework to be done to make everyone feel more or less pleased and contented.
Once a week my parents give the flat a big clean. If I am not very busy I help them with it. While my parents are dusting the carpets outside I am polishing the furniture and vacuum-cleaning. What I most hate doing about the house is washing the windows, though I have to do it from time to time. But we have agreed that it should be the father’s job.
I don’t do much washing as we have a washing machine. And I must add here that I dislike ironing clothes, though I iron my own things.
There are some other things I also do about the house, but they are occasional. I think that I should mention here the role of technical progress in making housework easier. On TV they advertise a lot of things for it from washing powders to washing machines and liquid vacuum-cleaners. That’s all very well, but not all families can afford them as most quality things are really expensive. And in the XXI century it’s already impossible to imagine our life without automatic, electric and electronic appliances which make the housework better and faster. Some scientists even say that computers will one day replace man in all household chores and I hope that in some time it will be enough just to press a button to have your housework done and you may sit comfortably in an armchair and relax. But at present il’s the mother’s hands that make my life pleasant and cosy at home.
ТОПИК 2
I am a boy and though I like delicious food and clean shirts I must admit that I hate housework though I have to do some things about the house almost every day.
As for our family we are considered to be a fairy large one because there are 5 of us sharing a three-room flat and of course there is a lot of work to be done every day like cleaning, cooking, shopping and so on. The best way in my opinion to do all the chores is by splitting them among the family members. Hut it’s only in theory. In practice all the housework is the burden on the mum’s shoulders. Firstly because my father is very busy as he has to support the family and he prefers having a rest in front of the TV set or playing with the younger children alter the hard day at work rather than washing up or doing the flat. Our father’s special duty is going shopping. He does it with pleasure and our family is always provided with a great amount of all necessary and unnecessary food.
My brother and sister are too small to be helpful with doing housework. Instead they make a big mess everywhere as they can’t stay in one and the same place for more than a minute. Our little ones are very restless, more naughty than they should be. And when the two of them are playing they make a hell of the house which of course drives our mother mad because she is the only person to do the rooms afterwards.
As for me I haven’t got a room for myself, so all my stuff is scattered about the flat. I like to have all my things at hand and I think that it’s only a waste of time to put things in their right places each time I’ve used them. So my mother does it. Unfortunately we have different views on this problem. She is crazy about having the place clean and tidy with everything in its right place. So when I come home from school I have to apply all my enthusiasm and quick wit to find the things I need.
Generally speaking, I can’t say that I am absolutely set against household chores but eventually it turns out to be like that. But nevertheless I have to wash up and to do some other work about the house. And my personal duty is to take care of the dog which in its turn demands much time and patience but I must say it’s the most pleasant and at the same time responsible housework I do every day, and here I must add as well that occasionally I assist my father in doing the shopping, help my mother when she starts giving the flat a big clean. I also sometimes go on short shopping rounds for small things but I seldom wash clothes or the windows or iron bed linen.
Frankly speaking, I’m not at all keen on housework. It never looks encouraging to me though I have to do it from time to time.

Домашние обязанности |

I believe that it is absolutely vital to keep the house clean in order to create a cozy atmosphere there. In all families, household chores are normally divided between family members and my family is no exception. |
Я считаю, что очень важно держать дом в чистоте, чтобы создать в нем уютную атмосферу. Во всех семьях домашние обязанности обычно разделяются между членами семьи, и моя семья не исключение. |
|
Honestly, I do |
Честно говоря, у меня не так много домашних обязанностей. Я должен регулярно убирать свою кровать и выносить мусор. Каждую неделю я убираюсь в своей комнате. Кроме того, я иногда готовлю что-нибудь. На самом деле, я не очень хорошо готовлю. Для меня это достаточно сложно, поэтому моя мама регулярно готовит на всю семью. Ей очень нравится готовить и ее блюда очень вкусные. Иногда я помогаю маме накрывать на стол и покупаю продукты, если они закончились. |

On Saturdays, my |
По субботам мы с родителями делаем генеральную уборку. Я обычно пылесошу и протираю пыль с мебели, в то время как моя мама моет полы и занимается глажкой. Мой папа ответственен за устранение поломок у нас в квартире. Кроме того, раз в месяц мой папа выбивает пыль из ковров. Мои родители убираются на кухне и в ванной комнате вместе. В воскресенье мой папа обычно ходит в магазин и покупает продукты на всю неделю. Честно говоря, мои родители делают основную часть домашних обязанностей. Однако я понимаю, что они очень устают за рабочую неделю и хотят отдохнуть хотя бы на выходных. Поэтому я стараюсь помочь им с уборкой. |

Doing household chores is a necessary part of our life. People all over the world try to work hard. They usually have a lot of duties. I have a lot of duties, too. My parents are often tired and I must take care of them. Everybody is happy when the home is always bright and clean. Day after day I can have fun when I do my household chores. I sweep the floor, tidy my room, clean the shoes, dust the furniture, make food myself and do every kind of work. It’s not easy to do every kind of work at home, but I can learn to do everything myself.
When I do my household chores well, everybody in the family is happy. If I have a holiday party at home, I can help my mother and grandmother a lot. How happy mother is to see everything bright! It’s a nice present for my parents to tidy the house! It’s wonderful to make people happy! If I have time, my mother asks me to go to the shop. I go there and buy bread, eggs and sugar. Very often I go to the market with my mother. We buy some vegetables and fruits. Then I help my mother to carry them. My mother cooks well; sometimes I help her when she makes cakes. She usually makes them before holidays and on my birthday.
We have got a country house. There is a big garden with many trees, bushes and flowers in it. There is a lot of work in our garden and I help my parents to do it. We must do our household chores, because if we hadn’t done it our flat would look like a trash can. I usually clean my flat on Friday. First of all I clean with duster table, piano, some boxes, TV, lamp and many other things. At second I clean with vacuum cleaner carpet in my room, then I clean carpet in mother’s and father’s room. I usually wash the floor in all rooms. Then I wash bath shell with «Pemolux». Later I wash stove with «Fairy».
Every day I must feed my cat. It is very big and fat. I cook a fish soup I to it. After supper I always wash plates and dishes. Sometimes I cook myself, but my cookies up aren’t so nice as mother’s. I think I make an impact in tiding our place. It is necessary to help the parents. Try to make people happy and you will be happy yourself.

I think nobody likes it when his house is in a mess. Doing household chores and keeping the house clean and cozy are necessary in every flat.
My parents work hard and they get rather tired after work. So it goes without saying that they don’t have to manage all the housework and I have to help them. Everyone in our family has some household chores. But frankly speaking I must admit that my mother does the majority of the housework. Some things must be done every day, others need to be done once or twice a week (like watering the plants).
My daily chores are making my bed, washing up, tidying my room in the evening, cleaning my shoes and taking out the rubbish. This is my usual routine. I also pick up my little sister from the kindergarten. Fortunately I don’t have to cook any food because my mum and granny do that and they really enjoy cooking. I just sometimes help them and serve the table. Once or twice a week my mother asks me to go shopping to the nearest food supermarket. I usually buy some bread, milk, fruits and vegetables.
Once a week, on Sundays my parents give the flat a big cleaning. There is a lot of work to do: dusting the furniture, ironing the clothes, mopping the floor, clearing out the bathroom and the kitchen. I am busy with vacuum-cleaning the carpets in our bedrooms and cleaning the mirrors.
I don’t consider my household chores difficult and I can cope with them easily, but sometimes I feel a bit lazy or I may be too busy with my school homework.

Перевод
Думаю, что никому не понравится, если в их доме будет царить беспорядок. Выполнение домашних обязанностей и поддержание чистоты и уюта в доме необходимы в любой квартире.
Мои родители много работают и сильно устают после работы. Поэтому, само собой разумеется, что они не обязаны справляться со всей работой по дому, и я должен помогать им. У каждого в нашей семье имеются домашние обязанности. Но, честно говоря, должен признать, что большую часть работы выполняет мама. Некоторые вещи нужно делать ежедневно, другие следует выполнять раз или два в неделю (например, поливать цветы).
К моим ежедневным обязанностям относятся заправка кровати, мытье посуды, уборка своей комнаты по вечерам, чистка моей обуви и вынос мусора. Это мой обычный распорядок. Я также забираю маленькую сестренка из детского сада. К счастью, мне не нужно готовить еду, потому что этим занимаются мама и бабушка, и это им доставляет большое удовольствие. Я просто иногда помогаю им и накрываю на стол. Раз или два в неделю мама просит меня сходить в ближайший продуктовый супермаркет. Обычно я покупаю хлеб, молоко, фрукты и овощи.
Раз в неделю, по воскресеньям мои родители устраивают в квартире генеральную уборку. Бывает много работы: уборка пыли с мебели, глажка утюгом, мытье полов шваброй, уборка ванной комнаты и кухни. Я занимаюсь чисткой ковров пылесосом в наших спальнях и мытьем зеркал.
Я не считаю свои домашние обязанности сложными, и могу легко с ними справляться, но иногда я чувствую лень, или же могу быть очень занят выполнение школьных уроков.
