The housework in my family is division. For instance, my father and mother prepare meals. My brother throws away rubbish. My sisters and I sweep the floor. I think that’s very common in modern society. Because parents have to work longer so children have to take some responsibility to share the housework.

Yes! I believe it is. Household is something like that if you don’t clean the house or to launder clothes, everyone will feel uncomfortable. But when you do it, everyone considers that is normal. Housework is also very boring with too many routine task, time consuming and tiring. If you can share household with family members, that will be better.

4.      Do you prefer to spend time with your family or friends?

I like to stay with my family. Because they can’t be replace by anyone and they are closer than friends. For me, the support from family and friends are different. Your family loves you no matter who you are, at your worst and your best. But friends may separate for some reasons. Besides this, I can have hearty talk without worry about clothes or place with family. So I really like to spend more time with my family.

5.      Have you ever been stay away from you family for a long time?

Yes, I had once. When I was a high school student, I lived in dormitory for three years. At first, I really missed my family and got homesick. I called my family frequently. After they answered the phone I started crying and couldn’t say anything. Every time they came to see me, I couldn’t let them go. Now I plan to go abroad to work and I am missing them from now. However, I believe this is a positive effective that can force me become independence.

excerpt from English Vocabulary in Use (Advenced) 

A significant number of people find they are less comfortable when abortion is used by women who don’t want to have a particular baby. The challenge of prenatal tests is how much choice do you really want to give? It is a painful assessment when parents decide to terminate a pregnancy.

According to a 2006 poll conducted by the National Opinion Research Center, when there is a strong chance of serious defect in the baby, women should be able to obtain a legal abortion. However, some people consider this private decision should be make without political interference.

Studies have shown that many women choose to abort for diagnosis of Down syndrome and other, less serious conditions. And a growing number of fertile couples are using in vitro fertilization to gain greater control over the genetic makeup of their children. The question may only become murkier if testing extends to traits like homosexuality or intelligence.

“We all had our own zones of discomfort but still couldn’t quite bring ourselves to say ’Here’s line, firm and clear’ because that is the core of the pro-choice philosophy” “You can never make that decision for someone else.”
