1. One important rule in my family is that I have to take my studies seriously. My parents are workers.
They don't have chance to study much so they want me to have a better education than them. Studying is
the most important task to me.
2. Another important rule in my family is that I have to respect the elderly. Respecting the elderly not only
shows that you are well educated but also you are mature. I always respect this rule because I think it's
really important in my life.
3. The third important rule in my family is that I need to help around with the housework and other home
duties. Helping parents is a good way to show that I am responsible and I love my parents. This make my
parents happier after a hardworking day.

Dear Lauren,
I'm very happy to know that you'll be staying with mv family for two months. We live in a four-bedroom
flat on the 15th floor. You will have your own bedroom for your stay here.
You asked me about our family rules. There arc three important ones that we must follow.
One important rule in my family is that every member of the family has to keep his or her own room tidy.
My brother and I have to make our beds every morning, and clean the floor and windows twice a week.
Another important rule is that my brother and I must be home before 10 p.m. My parents are very strict
and believe that setting a curfew will help us becomc responsible, and stay sale and healthy.
The third important rule is that wc mustn't invite friends to stay overnight. This is not only our family rule,
but also the rule for ail people living in the building.
