Many kids help parents to do chores such as washing the dishes，cleaning the floors and taking out the trash in the house.     21     But some people do not think that kids should get rewards（奖赏）for doing chores. One of them is Susie Walton，a parenting educator.     22     For example，kids won't sweep the floor if they see it is dirty. But they will clean the floor if their parents reward them for it. “Every house is a team effort，” Susie said. “A home is a living space for everyone in the family. It's important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities to keep our home clean.”

    23    They believe that money or other rewards can motivate kids to do more chores. It also teaches them real world lessons about how we need to work to earn money. Now，there are also apps（应用软件）that encourage kids to do chores. The apps give kids points and digital gifts that can be used either online or in the real world.     24     “Our goal is to encourage kids to earn rewards，”says Chris Bergman，founder of Chore Monster.“Kids need positive（积极的）power to make them do chores.”

What do you think？     25     Or should kids help out around their homes without getting anything in return？

As we know，everyone can make mistakes，but don't worry about it. The following is what we should do when making mistakes.

Firstly，just admit（承认）it. Don't think that our mistakes are caused by others. Be brave and face the fact that we have made the mistakes. Don't blame other people，and don't cheat ourselves，either.（1）After we make mistakes，we can prevent them disturbing us by laughing at ourselves.

Secondly，（2）__________ __________ at once. In order to stop the problem from getting worse，we should act quickly to solve it. If we don't act and deal with the problem quickly，it'll only make us feel more stressed. Also it is necessary to make a plan of action and correct the mistake according to it. So decide quickly and act！

Thirdly，realize that making mistakes is the best way to learn. Those who have made the most mistakes can get an A，for they are the ones who have learned the most. The more we learn from our mistakes，the cleverer we are.

And lastly，think about what we can learn from our mistakes. What caused us to make the mistake？How can we avoid making the same mistake in the future？When we act with a method to get a good result，do it that way next time. If we don't，we should stop，think about it，change it and try again.
