Letter A
Young people are always told that they should make the most of their time and that they will never be so free again. So，my question is—why fill up all the free time with housework? Parents expect their children to get good grades，be good at sports，and be popular with other kids. However，there is not enough time in the day to do these things and then do housework as well. It's not fair (公平的) to expect teenagers to give up their valuable time to do boring housework. Parents' jobs are in the workplace. Their children's jobs are at school.
The only difference is that parents get paid but children don't. Parents say that they make their kids do housework to teach them responsibility (责任). But this is just a trick. Parents trick their kids into doing housework because they are lazy.

Letter B
Both parents and children have jobs. The parents' jobs are to go to work to make money. The children's jobs are to go to school. But we all get hungry. Someone has to cook the meals and clean up later. We all wear clothes that get dirty. Someone has to wash them，iron them and put them away. Children work from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Parents work from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sure，after 4 o'clock，children have homework. But after 6，parents have housework too. They have to do the shopping，go to the bank，pay the bills and help their kids with their own homework!
I think it's only fair that teenagers help a bit at home. They might not like it，but it's good for them. It teaches them how to look after themselves. This is really useful when
Sincerely，

信件A
年轻人总是被告知应该充分利用时间，因为他们再也不会如此自由了。那么，我的问题是——为什么要用家务填满所有空闲时间呢？父母期望他们的孩子取得好成绩、擅长体育运动并且受其他孩子欢迎。然而，一天中没有足够的时间既做这些事又做家务。期望青少年放弃他们宝贵的时间去做无聊的家务是不公平的。父母的工作在工作场所。他们孩子的工作在学校。
唯一的区别是父母有报酬而孩子没有。父母说他们让孩子做家务是为了教他们有责任感。但这只是个把戏。父母哄骗孩子做家务是因为他们很懒。
你的，
负担过重的人
信件B
父母和孩子都有工作。父母的工作是去上班赚钱。孩子的工作是去上学。但我们都会饿。总得有人做饭，之后还要打扫。我们都穿会脏的衣服。总得有人洗这些衣服、熨烫并把它们收起来。孩子们从早上8点工作到下午4点。父母从早上8点工作到下午6点。当然，4点之后，孩子们有家庭作业。但6点之后，父母也有家务要做。他们得购物、去银行、付账单并且帮助他们的孩子做家庭作业！
我认为青少年在家帮忙一点是公平的。他们可能不喜欢，但这对他们有好处。这教会他们如何照顾自己。当他们离开家/独自生活时，这真的很有用。
诚挚的，
工作过度的人
