One day, on the way home from school, my mum told me she was going to make some new rules for me and my brothers and sisters. Before this, we knew she wanted us to be good, but we really didn’t have any rules. On the next day, she started giving us the “house rules”.

Clean your rooms every other day. Be ready for dinner at 7:00 p.m. (that means sitting at the table, with clean hands). If mum is having a meeting in the house, be very quiet (that means turning down the music and the TV). Be ready for bed at 9:30 p.m. (that means lying in bed, with a clean face). Get up at 7:30 a.m. To get ready for school (that means your feet are on the floor, not just hanging off the bed). Take the rubbish to the trash can in the street on Monday morning before school. Clean the bathroom on Thursday.

Following these rules isn’t too hard, and sometimes it’s even fun. At other times, it can be difficult. For example, if your room is really dirty, and you can't finish cleaning it on that day, you have to finish it on the next day, along with anything else you have to do. That can be hard.

Mum made these rules because she loves us a lot. She wants us to learn how to be on time, be clean and neat, and be polite. Every day, we try to follow her rules.

1.When do the family usually have dinner?

A. at 7:00 p.m.　　 B. at 7:30 p.m.

C. at 9:00 p.m.　　 D. at 9:30 p.m.

2.What should children do at 7:30 am?

A. Getting up.　　 B. Having breakfast.

C. Washing face.　　 D. Brushing teeth.

3.What should the children do according to the new rules?

A. Never watch TV again.　　 B. Clean their rooms every day.

C. Help their mum to make dinner.　　 D. Clean the bathroom once a week.

4.Which of the following can be used to describe the writer’s feeling about following these rules?

A. Terrible.　　 B. Tiring.

C. Not too hard.　　 D. Not very interesting.

5.When does the writer feel it hard to follow the rules?

A. When the rubbish is too heavy.　　 B. When there is a good show on TV.

C. When there is a good show on TV.　　 D. When he can’t clean his dirty room on time.
