prepare the food. They worked hard at home, doing all the chores with their mother. So when Kumar talked
to his friend Sam about chores, he felt very lucky. One day, Sam had an idea. He asked Kumar, “Could I
borrow your sisters?” He wanted them to help him clean his room, but they said “no”. Instead (相反), they
asked Sam to teach their brother how to do chores, so he could make his own(自己的) bed.

make a robot (机器人) to do the chores. Then everyone—mothers and fathers, sons and daughters—will be
happy!

Everybody will have some health problems. Here are Mr. Black's problems and his doctor's advice. I
hope they can help you.
Mr. Black's problems
My name is David Black. I live in a small house. I never go out when the weather is cold or hot,
because I am worried I'll have a cold. I don't go out often because I don't want to talk with others. I hardly
exercise, but sometimes I take a walk in my garden. After I walk for a few minutes, I have to take a rest. I
am always very weak and tired. I often have a headache but I don't want to see a doctor. What should I do?Dr. Smith's advice
Traditional Chinese doctors believe we need a balance of yin and yang to be healthy. I think you have
too much yin because you are always worried about something and you don't like going out or talking with
others. I think you should eat some yang foods, like beef and you need to exercise more. Also, talking with
others can make you feel relaxed. And if you don't feel very well, it's important for you to go to see a
doctor. And you will feel better after you take some Chinese medicine.
