Question

Dear dad, you want a beautiful garden! but you don’t want to work hard! So why not get your family to do the work for you!

If you want a new pond (池塘) in your garden, you can give your dog a bone. Dogs always dig (挖) a big hole in the garden. You can put water in this hole to make your pond.

Sometimes you must cut the grass in your garden. You can get your son to do this for you. Tell him that the lawnmower (割草机) is a fast car. He can run around the garden and cut the grass. It makes him feel like a driver.

You can ask your wife to grow all your vegetables and fruits. Tell her that this is a good way to save money. Then she can spend more money on new clothes or shoes.

Buy a rabbit for your daughter. Rabbits like to sleep on grass and eat carrots. Your daughter can take away all the old grass. Also, she can help your wife with the garden work so she can get carrots for her rabbit.

Grandfather and grandmother can also help. Tell them that working in the garden will be good to their health. They can also get some fun too.

Now, you can sit in a garden chair! You can watch your family working! You can drink tea and enjoy the sunshine!
