My duties about the house

My name is…… I am 17 years old. I have already finished my school. There are four people in my family: my mother, my father, my brother and me. We have a two-room flat. There is always much work to do about the house. There is always much work in the garden near the summer-cottage. My duties about the house are to clean the rooms, to wash the dishes after meals, to do shopping. Sometimes I help my mother to bake cakes and pies, to lay the table for meals. I usually help my sister to do lessons. In the spring and in the autumn I often help my parents in the garden. I look after the flowers and vegetables. I enjoy helping my parents.
