But read the conversation between Fred and Anna and do the exercises.

I can't go out on Sunday afternoons, I must stay at home and take care of my little brother.

I must stay at home all day on Sundays too.

I must help Mum clean the house.

I'm responsible for vacuuming and mopping the floors and she dusts the furniture.

She does the laundry on Saturdays.

On Sundays, it is my duty to do the ironing.

Luckily, I don't have to do much housework.

I just help Dad wash the car and clean the garage.

I must make my bed and tidy up my room, of course.

I'm responsible for taking out the garbage too.

In our house, everyone must do some chores because my mother is very busy at work.

For example, I set the table every evening while she is cooking dinner.

My Dad often cooks with her. He always makes the salad.

After dinner, he tidies up the kitchen and loads the dishwasher.

What chores does your brother have to do?

Tom is in charge of walking the dog and taking care of the garden.

Does he also do the shopping?

No, it's my Dad's responsibility. He must go shopping every Sunday, but he enjoys it.

Everyone in your family is always very busy.
