Betty is a lazy girl. She doesn't study hard, and she doesn't help her mother with the housework, either. "What are you going to be when you grow up, Betty?" Mother asks. "You're too lazy. No job will ever fit you."

　　"But I know one," says the girl, "I'm going to be Father Christmas," "You want to be Father Christmas?" Mother is surprised, "But why?" "Because he works only one day in a whole year."
