It's half past nine now. Michael is still on the bed. He thinks it's Sunday today. His father works
behind the house. His mother cleans the rooms. Little Sandra, his sister, watches their grandma milks the
cow (擠奶) under the tree. She asks Michael to take the basin (桶) of milk in the room. The boy hears
her, but he doesn't answer. So Sandra comes into his bedroom and says, "Get up, Michael. Grandma
wants your help."
