B Anyone who has messy children, lazy partners or naughty flat mates will be impressed by the resourcefulness (足智多谋) of Katrina Neathey, the co-owner of a cleaning company in West Sussex. She has made her three teenagers sign an agreement to help keep the house tidy. Any infraction of the agreement, for example, littering up their bedroom with magazines and drinks, or failing to put their dirty plates in the dishwasher, will come with a 5 pounds’ fine on removal of their phones. It is one way of setting up a cleaning rota (轮班表) that people might stick to. “Cleaning is teamwork.” says Lynsey Crombie, also known as the Queen of Clean. She suggests getting everyone in the household together to find out what people like doing. “In our family, my husband is better at mowing the lawn. I love cleaning rooms. Someone else might like folding the towels. You let everybody do what they’re good at, or enjoy, so there’s more chance they’ll actually do it.” Crombie is not a fan of fines. For her children, she takes away their phones or turns off the Wi-Fi. For other adults who aren’t joining in, she suggests keeping asking them to take action. If you aren’t sure what is required to keep the dirt at bay, there are many checklists online that you can print out to share the daily, weekly and monthly tasks. You can stick it on the fridge, and then everyone knows where they stand. If it’s not working, have another chat, such as “What do you dislike?” “How can we improve it?” Ironing out problems is all about communication. 4.What does the underlined word "infraction" in Paragraph 1 mean? A.Change . B.Explanation. C.Violation. D.Discussion. 5.How does Crombie encourage her family to enjoy their tasks? A.By offering the family timely help. B.By sticking to the cleaning rota strictly. C.By setting up a role model herself. D.By dividing tasks in terms of interest. 6.What can we infer from Paragraph 3? A.Fines work well among adults. B.It’s hard to push adults to take charge. C.Ways to motivate people vary. D.It’s good to remind people of their tasks. 7.What’s the author’s purpose of writing the text? A.To introduce ways of inspiring family to share housework. B.To encourage people to develop teamwork spirit at home. C.To call on housewives to handle lazy partners resourcefully. D.To advertise a great cleaning company in West Sussex. C A fully electric seaplane has made its first flight over
