题目内容:
My parents visited me to help with a project I’d put off — cleaning the house. Now, Mom and Dad are— hmm, how should I put this? — cheap! So when I offered to pick up the cleaner, they said, “Never mind. We have everything we need right here in the house.”
Mom pushed past me and went straight for the white vinegar (醋). I watched her remove a dirty mark on the blanket with it. I thought it a bit strange, but less so than her smelling at my bookshelf. When one book caused her nose to blow, she walked it into the fridge.
“That’ll clear up that unpleasant smell for a while,” she said. I nodded in agreement, although I wasn’t sure. I thought only her husband would know. I found Dad in the yard adding vodka, and some dish soap into a spray bottle (喷雾瓶).
“I’m hunting weeds,” he said.
“A wine?”
“Yes, the wine does dry them up.”
How come? They must have lost their marbles! I thought as I walked back into the house, where Mom was cleaning my shoes with banana skins.
“Mom, what are you …” BAM! I slipped on a banana skin. “Ooh, my back ...”
“Don’t move! I’ll get the meat tenderizer (嫩化剂)!”
However, she first pulled off my shoe, grabbed a sock and disappeared into the kitchen. I tried to run for my life, but Mom was quicker. She returned with my sock filled with meat tenderizer and water, and rubbed it on my back.
Before I had a chance to call 911, something amazing happened—my back began to feel better! It was working.
Suddenly, I saw things anew. My shoes were clean. And though the blanket smelled like salad, the mark was gone. Inside the yard stood Dad, drinking his weed killer and admiring his handiwork.
