[0:14]Hi, Susan. Where have you been? We've waited for you for hours. I'm sorry, Jenny. I'm responsible for helping mum at home with some chores. She prepared a to-do list early in the morning. She feels annoyed when I ignore my responsibilities. To be honest, I hate doing chores. Me too. But you know, it's necessary to help our parents at home. You're right, but doing the ironing isn't my favorite thing. In fact, I like doing kitchen chores, for example, I enjoy cooking very much. I'm in charge of cooking dinner on Saturdays. What's your favorite chore, Jenny? Well, I like it when I do the grocery shopping with my parents. I'm not good at cooking, so I feel worried when I cook for dinner. Now, it's time to pick up my brother from school. I have to arrive on time. See you soon, Susan. Track 8.2. Two. Listen again and write true T or false F for the statements. Correct the false statements.

[3:07]It's time to clean up the house. I prepared a to-do list in the morning. Have you checked it? Yes, Alice. I have to vacuum the carpets and do the laundry. I like vacuuming but laundry work isn't my favorite chore. Anyway, I'll do them and Mary has to clean the windows. I don't like cleaning the windows when it's hot outside. The heat makes me ill. Well, I can clean the windows, Mary. I like looking around while doing the cleaning. Why don't you clean the bathroom and dust the furniture then? All right, Alice. I don't enjoy it at all, but I can take out the garbage too. Who will cook the dinner then? Me, of course. Kitchen is my favorite place. You will have Alice's special pizza for dinner. But Mary, can you do the grocery shopping after you take out the garbage? Of course, Alice. I love outdoor chores.
