react面试题及答案2019Many kids help parents to do chores in the house.They may wash the dishes,put laundry away or take out the trash.In return,some kids get money or other rewards from their parents,such as20minutes to play computer games.
But some people don't think that kids should get rewards for doing chores.One of them is Susie Walton,a parenting educator(育儿教育家)and family coach.She believes if kids get rewards, they will think that work isn't worth doing unless you get something in return.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,”Walton said.“A home is a living space for everyone in the family.It's important for kids to see that we all have a responsibility to keep our home clean.”
Other people hold different opinions.They believe that money or other rewards encourage kids to do more chores.It also teaches them real world lessons.They can learn about how we need to work to make money.
Now,there are also apps that encourage kids to do chores.The apps give kids points and digital(数字的)gifts that can be used either online or in life.
With the app ChoreMonster,kids can get digital points after doing chores.Kids can exchange their points for real rewards,such as time to play video games or a trip to the mall.
“Our goal is to encourage kids to earn rewards,”says Chris Bergman,founder of ChoreMonster.“Kids need positive power to make them do chores.”

A.they get high marks in the exam
