4. Read Nick’s diary and say what problems he had when his mum went away.

Do you know much about household chores? I didn’t… That is until my mum had to go on a business trip for a week. That was when we realized who takes care of the housework.

Monday 25th

Monday was the first day I tried to wake up myself, but it didn’t work out so well. I usually just ignore the alarm clock on my phone and continue sleeping. So I decided to use an old-style wind-up [waɪnd ʌp] alarm clock. Before going to bed I tested it to see if it still worked. It sure did. The noise it made! Nobody could ever sleep through it. I hid it under my bed. And you know what? I felt like sleeping on top of a bomb. The clock was ticking loudly under my bed and kept me awake. So I sleepwalked through my day at school.

Tuesday 26th

Today my brother was responsible for cooking. He bought some chicken on the way home, but, unfortunately, he forgot to take the plastic wrap (обертка / абортка) off before he put it in the oven. So we had to eat shiny meat for dinner.

Wednesday 27th

On Wednesday we decided not to experiment with the oven anymore and had beans on toast instead. While I was opening the tin with the tin opener, I cut my finger. It took me some time to find a plaster and I completely forgot about the toast. When I rushed back into the kitchen, it was full of smoke and the fire alarm was ringing. Five minutes later, the fire brigade was at our house.

Thursday 28th

Thursday was more relaxed: just sandwiches and tea. What could possibly go wrong with the tea? Absolutely nothing, just the burned kettle. As I turned it on, I forgot to check the water level and there was no water in it. I realized that something was wrong only when it started to smell funny.

Friday 29th

On Friday I looked at my socks, which felt like cardboard (картон/кардон), and understood that I didn’t have any clean clothes. As I was invited to a party, I had to do my laundry myself. The problem was I used too much washing powder. In the middle of the washing cycle I saw strange bubbles coming out of the washing machine. Of course, I decided to check. So I stopped the machine and opened the door. Then I had to mop the flooded floor for the next two hours. As for the clothes, my dad found the old sewing machine and mended the hole in my old shirt.

Saturday 30th

Saturday was a cleaning-up day, because my mother was coming on Sunday and we wanted the house to be spotless (безупречно чистый / безудакорна чысты). We spent the whole day vacuuming, dusting the furniture, picking up and sorting out the toys, these kinds of things. In the end, we were so tired that I decided to do the last chore tomorrow: to take out the rubbish. I put the rubbish bags in the hall and left my socks on the TV to remember to do my chore the next morning. You know how some people leave notes to themselves or put crosses on their hands? But my dad didn’t like the look of my socks while he was watching his favourite comedy show and took them away. So next morning, I couldn’t remember about the rubbish.

Sunday 31st

You can’t imagine how happy we were when mum rang the doorbell… and discovered the rubbish bags. There was one more thing she was sad about: the plants. Unfortunately, they all died as we had completely forgotten to water them.
