三、完成图表。根据短文内容,完成图表格中所缺信息。
In the class meeting last Friday， the teacher asked us to talk about what chores we do at home.
I never do chores at home because my mother doesn't allow（允许）me to do that. She thinks I just need to study hard to catch up with my classmates in school instead of spending much time doing such meaningless things. She also hopes to give me a break. My house is always tidy because my mother cleans it every day. She thinks a clean and comfortable house is helpful for my study. But in fact， I don't mind doing chores.
Cindy
I sometimes do some chores at home， such as taking out the rubbish and making my bed. They are easy for me. My parents never ask me to do any difficult chores like doing the dishes and washing my clothes. They say the plates and clothes are still dirty after I wash them. I don't need to help in the kitchen， either. Because I once cut my finger and scalded（伤着）my hands when I helped my parents cook.
Allan
I spend a lot of time doing chores at home every day. My parents leave a lot of chores for me. They think through doing chores I can prepare myself better for future. Because when I am 18， I need to move out of the house and live alone.
