• 2．Boys Learn Housework at School Everyone should play a part in housework and should know how to perform basic life skills.However，in some places，housework is seen as something that only women do，leaving some men unwilling or even unable to do them.
     A school is fighting for gender equality（性別平等） with a program that teaches boys and young men basic life skills，including cleaning，cooking，and even sewing（縫補(bǔ)）.
     However，people hold different opinions on this topic.Let's have a look at them.
  

  A Elaine	I have two sons and they are both taught that there is no such a thing as an idea that cooking and cleaning are women's work，and that chores should be done by both genders.	D Niki	Sorry，I see this as something that should be taught at home!My parents taught me all chores at a very young age.Parents need to stop expecting things like this to be taught at school.
  B Debbie	It's parents' job to teach their sons and daughters how to use common sense in all aspects of living.By the way，children learn by example.	E Adam	All parents should do this；school is for teaching schoolwork.
  C Emmy	It shouldn't have anything to do with gender.It's called life skills that everyone should have.	F Jani	In Finland，our kids are taught these kinds of skills and that has nothing to do with gender.They're life skills.

  （1）Which of the following housework is NOT mentioned in this article？

  
  A．Cleaning.
  B．Sewing.
  C．Washing.
  （2）Match people's opinions A-F with the two topics： ①These life skills have nothing to do with gender； ②These skills should be taught at home.Which of the following is right？

  
  A． ①-AC； ②-BDEF
  B． ①-ACF； ②-BDE.
  C． ①-BF； ②-ACDE.
  （3）What's the school's main purpose in teaching boys chores？

  
  A．To understand how difficult it is to do housework.
  B．To ask boys to do more chores than girls at home.
  C．To call on boys to share housework at home.

• 3．Many people are trying to learn a new language.Some of them consider it as a hobby，while others have to learn a language because it is required by their jobs or study.As a foreigner who is really interested in Chinese culture，I like learning Chinese.
     It is thought that a person needs to know at least 3，000 Chinese characters（漢字） to read and understand most Chinese newspapers.The problem for most foreigners，however，is that knowing 3，000 characters sounds like an impossible task，for many of the Chinese characters look the same.That's why some people give up halfway.It's the most difficult part for me，too.But I manage to learn how to write each character by watching videos online.Whenever I saw a character I didn't know in the street or on a menu，I would just write it down on my phone and then look it up.Slowly I've learned the characters that are common in daily life.
     It's also important to listen to Chinese as much as possible.I downloaded（下載） a lot of listening materials onto my phone and listened to them on the way to school，work and even dates with my friends.I also watched a lot of Chinese TV shows and films，where the words are not so difficult and there are always subtitles（字幕）.In this way，I've also learned how to express myself like a Chinese.
     As for speaking，I practice talking about different topics in Chinese when I am cycling around，effectively talking to myself or in my head，thinking through different conversations and situations.For example，whenever I was going to a shop，I would think how to say that in Chinese.It helps me to think in a Chinese way，which is really important.
     Learning a language is never easy.Generally，I just use every tool on hand and take my learning step by step，and I'm still learning new things to this day!
