Reading on Cleaning Tips
Read the text House Cleaning Tips.
Answer the following questions based on the passage.
House Cleaning Tips
Keeping your house clean is not hard. With the right tools and a simple routine, cleaning can be easy and fun.
First, get your cleaning tools. You will need a broom, mop, vacuum cleaner, cloths, sponges, and cleaning spray. If you prepare them first, cleaning will be faster.
To clean the living room, vacuum the floor twice a week. If you have pets or carpet, this is very important. Also, clean the table, shelves, and TV to remove dust.
To clean windows, use a glass cleaner and a cloth. Spray the cleaner on the cloth, not on the window. Then, wipe in a circle to make it shiny.
Before cleaning each room, you should remove things you don’t need. This makes cleaning faster and the room looks neater. A clean room feels good and is easier to take care of.
For the kitchen, clean the table and counters every day. Wash the microwave and fridge once a week. Wash the dishes after eating and take out the trash often. If you can, sweep the floor every day.

What colors are the walls and furniture?
How do you feel when you are in this room?

Describing a Room
Write a descriptive paragraph about a room in your house.
Include:
– The name of the room.
– A list of furniture and items in the room.
– The colors and decorations.
– What activities take place in this room.
– Your feelings about this room.
Example
My favorite room in the house is the living room. It has a big brown sofa, a coffee table, a television, and a bookshelf. The walls are light blue, and there are some family photos and paintings hanging on them. There is also a small green carpet in the middle of the room. We usually watch TV, read books, or talk with guests in this room. I love the living room because it feels cozy and warm. It is the place where my family spends the most time together, and that makes me happy.
Ruangan favorit saya di rumah adalah ruang tamu. Di sana ada sofa cokelat besar, meja kopi, televisi, dan rak buku. Dindingnya berwarna biru muda, dan ada beberapa foto dan lukisan keluarga yang tergantung di sana. Ada juga karpet hijau kecil di tengah ruangan. Kami biasanya menonton TV, membaca buku, atau mengobrol dengan tamu di ruangan ini. Saya suka ruang tamu karena terasa nyaman dan hangat. Di sanalah keluarga saya menghabiskan sebagian besar waktu bersama, dan itu membuat saya bahagia.
