Many kids do housework such as doing the dishes, making the bed, and folding the clothes. In exchange, they get some money or other computer time.

Paying kids for housework is one of the most popular topics, especially at a time when everyone is more careful about money. Some parents think since adults are paid to do their jobs, we should pay kids for everyday housework.

But some people don't think kids should get rewards(報(bào)酬) for doing housework. Susie Walton, an expert, believe that by rewarding kids, parents are sending a message that work isn't worth doing unless you get something in return. “Running any kind of housework is a team effort,” Walton said. “A home is a living space for everyone in the family. It's important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities in the house, and families decide how they want their home to look, and how they are going to keep it looking like what they want.”

Other people believe that getting a reward encourages kids to do housework, and it also teaches them real world lessons about how we need to work to get money. There are also apps(程序) that gives kids points and digital gifts that can be redeemed(兌現(xiàn)) either online or in the real world. “Our goal is to give kids lawful power so they can get rewards,” says Chris Bergman. “And kids need rewards to help encourage them. ”

1.Which of the following housework is NOT mentioned in Paragraph 1?

A. Washing the dishes. B. Cooking meals.

C. Folding the clothes. D. Making the bed.

2.The underlined phrase “in return” in Paragraph 3 has the same meaning as “_____”.

A. as a reward B. for punishment C. on sale D. under control

3.What's Walton's idea in the passage?

A. Running exercise is a kind of team work.

B. People work to get some rewards.

C. Kids have responsibilities in the house.

D. Doing the housework in only the parents' job.

4.According to Chris Bergman, kids should be encouraged to ______.

A. do housework without rewards B. do more housework

C. stay away from housework D. do housework by getting rewards

5.Which is the best title for the passage?

A. Kids Should Study as Well as Doing Housework

B. Let Children Do Some Housework

C. Should Kids Be Rewarded for Doing Housework

D. Doing Housework Is Good for Children's Study
