I have some obligations today. I should copy these sentences, add this figures, but I don’t feel like it. Then my mother comes back. She complains she also has some obligations. She ought to tidy the room, dust the furniture, polish the floor and cook meal. My father is no exception either. He’s supposed to wash the car, repair the fence and post these letters. What a busy day!
今天我有一些任务。我必须复印这些句子，加上这个图表，但是我不喜欢它。然后我妈妈回来了。她抱怨说她也有一些任务。她要收拾房间、掸家具上的灰、给地板上光蜡，还有煮饭。我爸爸也不例外。他要洗车、修栅栏和寄信。好忙碌的一天啊！
