Dear Sir，

I think it is important for children to learn how to do 26.chores and help their parents with housework.It is not 27.enough to just get good grades at school.Children these days 28.depend on their parents too much.They are always asking，“Could you get this for me?”or “Could you help me with that?”Doing chores helps to 29.develop children's independence and teaches them how to look after themselves.It also helps them to understand the idea of 30.fairness.Since they live in one house with their parents，they should know that everyone should do their part in 31.keeping it clean and tidy.Our 32.neighbor's son got into a good college but during his first year，he had no idea how to take care of 33.himself.As a result，he often fell ill and his grades 34.dropped.The earlier kids learn to be independent，the 35.better it is for their future.
