Writing suggestion:
Dear ___,
Every family has its own rules. Mine has a few. My
younger sister and I always have to listen to my parents’ advices.
After school, I spend much time helping my mother with some
household chores. While my sister is responsible for cleaning the
house, I wash the dishes. My parents are very strict with us. They
do not allow us to stay up late. They never let us use the smart
phone and watch TV too much. However, we are allowed to go
out with our friends on some special occasions. None of us is
allowed to go out at night.
Sometimes we feel unpleasant with the rules in my family
but we know we must stick to them to make our parents happy.
Your sincerely,
___
