   I think my responsibilities are helping my mother do some housework and take care of myself. But I think the most important thing is to study well. In China, the way change your life is to study well. A long time ago, imperial examinations appeared in China. It change people's life because people can live a eudemonic through study. My family isn't rich, and my parents have to work very hard to make money to live here. So my responsibility is to study well and change our life and make our life better.

I think my responsibilities are do my best, such as study more harder, have a good score. But I think the most important thing is help other. Such as do the housework, wash the dishes, clean the floor, clean the windows, and borrow friends’ pencil. Because the ability is more important than any other things, more responsibility can make you have more friends because more and more people believe you, 

so my responsibility is help other.

I do agree family responsibility is important for everyone. In this case, it sounds like studying well is also a family responsibility for Neil. 
 
Here's my question for Neil: would you choose to help a friend to study well, but if it would take away some of your own time?

Hi Bill,
 
I also believe helping others is a great way to make friends. Studying is important, but personally I believe making friends is even more important.

You are right. No one can live in this world without friends. Making friends is very important. They can always help you when you are in trouble.
