Dear Grandma,
How are you? We are all fine. My mother is busy at the drugstore, and my father is fixing the old shelf in the living room.
Last week my sister and I washed the dog together. He was not happy, and my brother did not want to help, either!
Uncle Sam will get married in October. Can you come to the wedding with us? We can pick you up by car.
Love,
Emily
親愛的奶奶：
您好嗎？我們都很好。媽媽在藥局很忙，爸爸正在修客廳裡那個舊架子。
上星期我和姐姐一起幫狗洗澡。牠一點也不開心，而且我弟弟也不想幫忙！
山姆叔叔十月要結婚了。您可以和我們一起去參加婚禮嗎？我們可以開車去接您。
愛您的艾蜜莉

In many homes, women do most of the housework. But things are changing in Taiwan. More fathers now wash clothes, cook dinner and take care of children.
Some families make a list every week. Each person picks two or three jobs. For example, children can clean their own rooms or feed the pet.
Teachers say this is a good idea. Children learn to think about other people when they help at home.
在許多家庭裡，家事大多由女性負責。但是台灣的情況正在改變。現在有更多爸爸會洗衣服、煮晚餐和照顧小孩。
有些家庭每星期會列一張表。每個人挑兩、三項工作。舉例來說，小孩可以打掃自己的房間，或是餵寵物。
老師說這是個好做法。小孩在家裡幫忙時，會學著替別人著想。
