英文小作文:
My Ideal Household Assistant
I dream of a perfect houseboy who could help me with all the housework. From cooking to cleaning, laundry to shopping, he would be my personal servant, always ready to assist me in any task that needs doing. He would be a great help to me, especially during the busy weekdays when I am always running around like a chicken with my head cut off.
However, I know that such a perfect helper does not exist in this world. But I still hope that one day, I will find someone who is willing to work hard and take care of my house, so that I can have more time to focus on my studies and hobbies.
In my ideal world, the houseboy would be someone who is trustworthy, reliable, and hardworking. He would be kind and considerate, always willing to lend a hand when needed. He would be a great addition to any household, making life easier and more enjoyable for everyone.
