Generally speaking, the difference between a house and a home is that a house is a building usually composed of two floors and usually containing one family, whilst a home is the place where we live, usually together with our family. "House", therefore, we use more in the physical sense, whilst "home" is used more in the abstract or spiritual sense.

Housework is the work generally done by a housewife (or perhaps even her husband) in the house, such as the washing and the cleaning etc., whilst homework is the work a pupil has to do at home.

I think people continue to smoke  because smoking is a habit which is extremely difficult to break.

We must go to a lawyer or to the law courts to demand our rights.

The kind of jobs which make great demands on one's nerves are bus-driving, taxi-driving, teaching, any kind of job where one must work with the public.

It is well to remember that in English there are very often exceptions to a rule, which means that it would be dangerous to think of the rules as always being obeyed.
When learning a rule, we should always remember the words "generally, often, sometimes" etc. For example, we "generally" put an adverb after the Special Verbs, but sometimes you will find it before a Special Verb. For example, "John always is late." In this case, the special verb "is" is used emphatically in order to emphasise the fact that John is always late.

GRAMMAR:
*A chair is an object which has a place to sit on, four legs and a back, whilst a seat is just anywhere we sit. If we sit on a chair, that is our seat. Even if we sit on the floor, that too is our seat.
*We use the words "so" and "not" in order not to have to repeat a whole sentence that someone has just said. For example, someone says to us "Did you remember to shut the door?" and we reply "Yes, I think so" or "No, I don't think so". The word "so" saves us repeating the whole sentence "Yes, I think I have shut the door" or "No, I don't think I have shut the door". The same is true of the word "not". For example, "Is James coming to the party tomorrow?", to which the reply might be "I hope so" or "I hope not".
