PARAGRAPH
Homework: compulsory or not?
We shouldn't have homework. It takes away from family time. You have to do your homework instead of
playing a family board game or playing catch. You can't go outside to play so you will get fat. If you bring
it home you will rush through it so you can play video games. We should do our work at school because we
have better equipment there. We should also do it at school because we can't ask our teacher questions
when we do it at home. It's hard to concentrate when you could be outside playing on a sunny day. So I
think homework should not be compulsory.
(108 words)
In my opinion, homework is beneficial to students in many ways. Firstly, homework is an extension of the
classroom, which allows a student to continue learning and to cement the things they learn within.
Homework promotes understanding to information that students might have found confusing. Without it,
students would only see materials once and therefore, not truly learn it. In addition, doing homework may
keep them occupied, preventing them from freedom or giving them less time to indulge in video games.
Last but not least, while struggling with homework without the help of teachers or parents, students learn
how to work independently and to overcome themselves. They also get a chance to better their skills such
as critical thinking or time management. For all the reasons above, I would say homework should be
compulsory.

To begin with, using mobile phones is one of popular methods for people to communicate, relax and do
business. By using call or video phone, text message, we are able to keep in touch together despite a long
distance. These days, with the significant developement of cell phones, they enable users to entertain such
as surfing the internet, sending photos or downloading videos and games. According to a research, the
number of people accessing the web through mobile phones is now accounting for well over 15% of
worldwide internet usage. Furthermore, some Office applications for mobile phones, for example,
Miccrosoft Office are helping employees do their business more effectively.
Although it is true that people are now getting a number of advantages from mobiles, these
communication technologies also have several negative impacts. Firstly, using cell phones too much will
probably be harmful for human's health as it can increase the risk of brain cancer. In addition, children
are spending a lot of their free time on using mobiles with the purpose of chatting or playing games. This is
time consuming and affect negatively on their studies. Lacking of face-to-face communication is also the
result of using mobiles. Instead of going out or dating, many people prefer to stay at home and use their
cell phones to connect to others.
In general, mobile phones have both pros and cons to our society. They make the people's lives and
works become more convinient. Yet, mobile phones still impact badly on health, time and communication
of individuals. To advoid these problems, each person should manage the time of using mobiles
reasonably. Besides, the awareness of people about the disadvantages of mobile phones should be
improved.
