Passage1
Everyoneknows how the story of Cinderellaends,but did you everreally think abouthow
she spenther days before she met the princd?Her daily routine was not fascinating.She did
everythingfrom sweepingthe floor to cookingthemeals.If someonehad askedCinderella,"Are
thereanykinds of householdwork thatyou particularlyhate?"sheprobablywould haveanswered,
"Why, none,of course.Houseworkis my duty!" In the real world, however,most peoplehave
definite dislikes for certainsortsof householdwork. Two of thesetasksare ironing clothesand

not follow thesedirectionscarefully,it might becomewrinkled andyou haveto startover.Perhaps
that is why ironing is not a favorite thing to do. It calls for extremeattentionto detail from

ironing clothes,washingdishesis a thing thatusuallymustbe doneeveryday.I don't know how
Cinderellafelt aboutthis particulartask,but I believethatmostpeoplehateit asmuchasI do.
