Phillip is fourteen this year .He studies in a middle school.He doesn't do any housework at home.He usuallywatches football matches on TV or goes out to play football with his friends at shool.His mother and sister do all housework.
His father went to New York on business last Friday.And the next day his sister Tina was ill. His mother took her to see a doctor.The doctor told her to be in hospital.His mother had to look after her there.At first the boycould find some food in the fridge and cupboard.But on the third day there was only some uncooked vegetables and meat left .He had to buy a cook book and did all what it said.But sometimes he put the pepper in the milk or sugar in the soup.Of course,they were terrible and he was often hungry.
A week later Tina came out of hospital .When his mother came back, it was a fearful mess in the room.Phillip told her all about it.His mother and sister had a good laugh over that.Now the boy stands in the kitchen and watches what his mother does. He thinks it's necessary for him to learn to do the housework.
