How We Like Each Room 每个房间怎么收拾

This is what “done” looks like, so you are never left guessing. The test is simple: nothing visibly dirty, everything back where it belongs, no smells. If you are unsure about an object, please ask before moving or throwing anything away. 这部分说明“做到什么程度算做好”,免得你只能靠猜。标准很简单:看不出脏、东西回到原位、没有异味。遇到拿不准的物品,先问我们,别自己处理掉。

3.1Living room 客厅

Floor 地面
Daily

Vacuum, then sweep and mop. Keep the corners and the space under the sofa and table free of dust and hair. Let the floor dry before you walk on it.先吸尘,再扫、拖。角落、沙发和茶几下面不要有灰尘毛发。拖完等干了再走。

Sofa 沙发
Daily

Cushions straight and patted down; give the crevices a quick vacuum; wipe up any mark you notice.靠垫摆正、拍平整;缝隙顺手吸一下;看到有印子就擦掉。

Coffee table 茶几
Daily

No dust, no rings, nothing left lying about. The remote goes back in its little cup — the cup sits on the TV unit. (We do not keep a tissue box here.)没有灰、没有水印、不堆杂物。遥控器放回那只小杯子里——小杯子就在电视柜上。(我们这里不放纸巾盒。)

TV unit & shelves 电视柜与架子
Daily

Wipe it clean wherever you can reach. Now and then, lift the small objects so the surface underneath gets cleaned too, then put them back exactly where they were — we like them where they are.能擦到的地方都擦干净。小物件隔一阵就拿起来擦一下下面的台面,擦好后放回原位——我们就喜欢它们待在那儿。

Bin 垃圾桶
Must

Empty it every day, with a fresh liner, and wipe it out so it never smells. If it does smell inside, rinse it with boiling water, then leave it in the sun on the balcony to disinfect.每天倒,换新袋,桶身擦一下,不要有味道。桶内如果有味道,用开水烫一下,再放到阳台太阳下晒一晒消毒。

3.2Kitchen 厨房

Counters & stove 台面与灶台
After meals

Wipe with cleaning liquid after every meal, so no grease is left behind. Keep the burner rings free of burnt-on bits.每餐后用清洁剂擦一遍,不留油。灶圈的焦垢清干净。

Cloths & sponges 抹布与海绵
Always

Keep them separate, and never mix them up: the cloth for the kitchen counters is not the cloth for the dining table, and use a different sponge for the dishes, for the pots, and for cleaning the sink.分开使用,千万不要混用:擦厨房台面的抹布和擦餐桌的抹布要分开;洗碗、洗锅、清洁水槽的海绵,各不相同。

Sink 水槽
Daily

No food caught in it, no smell. Give it a scrub each day and clear the drain.不要有食物残渣和味道。每天刷一次,下水口清一下。

Fridge 冰箱
Weekly

Wipe the outside daily. Once a week, go through the inside — throw out anything past its date, check nothing has leaked.外面每天擦。每周清一次里面——过期的扔掉,看看有没有渗漏。

Extractor hood 抽油烟机
Weekly

Wipe the outside weekly; degrease the filter every couple of weeks.外壳每周擦;滤网每两周除一次油。

Dishes & cloths 餐具与抹布
After meals

Wash and drain them, then put them back in their cupboard. Wash and dry the cloths daily, and replace them once they wear out — if you use disposable cloths, change them weekly. When the cloths are running low, remind us to buy more.洗净沥干,放回固定橱柜。抹布每天洗晒,用旧了就换新——如果用一次性抹布,则每周换新。抹布不够时,提醒我们购买。

Rubbish 垃圾
Daily

Take the food waste out every day, and the wet waste from cooking straight away — the bins are close to our home, so this keeps things clean. Wash the bin itself daily so it does not draw insects.厨余每天清掉;做完菜的湿垃圾请立刻倒掉——扔垃圾的地方离我们家很近,及时清理更卫生。垃圾桶每天洗,免得招虫子。

3.3Bedroom 卧室

Beds 床
Must

Make the beds each morning — sheets smooth, duvet laid straight, pillows straight. Fresh linen once a week.每天早上整理——床单抚平,被子铺好,枕头摆正。床单被套每周换一次。

Floor 地面
Daily

Vacuum, sweep and mop right to the edges and around the furniture legs. (The beds sit flush with the floor — there is no space underneath.)吸尘、扫净、拖净,墙边和柜脚周围也要过一遍。(床与地面完全贴合,床下没有空隙。)

Wardrobe 衣柜
Weekly

Hang or fold clothes by kind, and keep them tidy. Put seasonal things away and label them.衣物按类别挂好或叠好,保持整齐。换季的收起来贴上标签。

Bedside table 床头柜
Daily

Dust it — lift the lamp and anything else on top when you wipe, and put them back as they were. Please do not move or use our personal things — jewellery, skincare, anything on the surface.擦灰——把上面的台灯等一并拿起来擦干净,再原样放回。我们的私人物品请不要动、不要用——首饰、护肤品、台面上的东西都是。

Our privacy 私人空间
Always

Please knock and wait before coming into a bedroom, and do not go through drawers or cupboards.进卧室前请先敲门、等我们应声,也不要翻抽屉和柜子。

Laundry 洗衣

Your clothes and ours are washed in separate machine loads — please never mix them in one load. Everyday delicates can go on the machine's delicate cycle; for anything especially delicate we will tell you and ask for hand-washing. If anything is unclear, just ask us.你的衣服和我们的衣服请分开用洗衣机洗——绝不要混在同一个 load(一桶)里。一般的 delicate 衣物可以用洗衣机的 delicate 模式;特别 delicate 的衣物,我们会特别提示手洗。有任何不确定或不明白的,随时问我们。

3.4Bathroom 卫生间

Toilet 马桶
Must

Clean it inside and out every day — no marks, no smell — and give it a thorough clean on Wednesdays. Wipe the seat and button with disinfectant, then wipe them again with clean water, and dry them before the lid goes back down.每天里外清干净——没有污渍和味道——周三深度清洁时再认真刷一遍。座圈和冲水按钮用消毒液擦完,还要用清水再擦一遍,擦干之后才可以合上马桶盖。

Basin & mirror 洗手台与镜面
Must

No toothpaste marks or water spots on the basin; no streaks or limescale on the mirror.台面没有牙膏印和水渍;镜面没有水痕和水垢。

Shower 淋浴区
Daily

No hair or soap scum on the floor. Wipe the glass door dry soon after showering — if the water marks are left to sit, they become impossible to remove. Change the drain filter every two days so the drain stays clear. Tiles and the glass door get a proper clean once a week.地面没有头发和皂垢。冲凉后尽快把玻璃门上的水渍擦干——水渍停留久了就再也擦不干净。每两天换一次地漏滤网,保持地漏通畅。瓷砖和玻璃门每周认真清一次。

Towels 毛巾
Daily

Keep each person's towels separate, hang them straight, and change them once a week.各人分开,挂整齐,一周换洗一次。

Floor 地面
Must

Mop it dry — no standing water, it is slippery. Clear the hair out of the drain.拖干,不要积水——滑倒危险。地漏里的头发清掉。

3.5Entrance, balcony & storage 玄关、阳台与储物间

Entrance 玄关

Put shoes into the cabinet and wipe them down, sweep the floor daily, and clear packaging and parcels as soon as you open them.鞋子收进柜子、擦一下鞋面,地面每天扫,快递拆完的包装及时清掉。

Balcony 阳台

Sweep the floor and rinse it with clean water; wipe the balcony doors and windows clean — including the glass between the balcony and the living room — and wipe the handles too. Sort and hang out the laundry, and bring the clothes in if it looks like rain. There are two balconies; please look after both.地面扫净、用清水冲洗;阳台门窗擦干净——包括阳台与客厅之间那道玻璃——把手也擦一遍。衣物分类晾好,看着要下雨就把衣服收进来。家里有两个阳台,两个都要打理。

Storage 储物间

Keep supplies sorted, and label them where it helps. Use the older ones first, and do not buy so much that things go off.日用品分类摆好、必要时贴上标签;先用旧的,别买太多放到过期。
