great to see a green space in the middle of our city.

practice. I offered to help him with the vacuuming, but
he refused to do any of his chores. Instead, he went to
the garden to play outside. While he was playing in the
garden, he kicked a ball through one of the living room
windows!
Jordan: What did your parents say?
Eric: I suggested telling the truth, but at first he denied breaking the window. That made the situation
worse since they knew it was him. In the end, he promised to do his chores.
