Maybe most of us do not enjoy doing housework. We hate to do it. But I think it's our job to do housework. Here is some advice for you.
★Learn to do little things
Doing housework is really not as bad as it sounds. If we all do our parts of housework, it will seem much less tiring. We can do little things first. It will show that you are growing up.
★Divide housework among（在……之中）the family
Your parents are also busy. They work all day and they have to keep the house clean. So it's necessary to make everyone do housework. It will make everyone's job easier.
★Make it fun
If you can make housework a funny thing, that will be great. Most people think cooking can be fun if you put your heart into it. For example, if you cook a wonderful meal, your family or friends will be proud（骄傲的）of you.
Aron Ralston is an American man who is interested in mountain climbing. As a mountain climber, Aron is used to taking risks. This is one of the exciting things about doing dangerous sports. There were many times when Aron almost lost his life（C）________（由于）accidents. On April 26, 2003, he found himself in a very dangerous situation when climbing in Utah.
On that day, Aron's arm was caught under a 360-kilo rock that fell on him when he was climbing by himself in the mountains. Because he could not free his arm, he stayed there for five days and hoped that someone would find him. But when his water ran out, he knew that he would have to do something to save his own life. He was not ready to die that day. So he used his knife to cut off half his right arm. Then, with his left arm, he bandaged himself so that he would not lose too much blood. After that, he climbed down the mountain to find help.
After losing his arm, he wrote a book called Between a Rock and a Hard Place. This means being in a difficult situation that you cannot seem to get out of. In this book, Aron tells of the importance of making good decisions, and of being in control of one's life. His love for mountain climbing is（A）________great（B）________he kept on climbing mountains even after this experience.
Do we have the same spirit as Aron? Let's think about it before we find ourselves "between a rock and a hard place", and before we have to make a decision that could mean life or death.
