What is your opinion? Do you agree with this statement? Write 200–250 words. Use the following plan:
− make an introduction (state the problem)
− express your personal opinion and give 2–3 reasons for your opinion
− express an opposing opinion and give 1–2 reasons for this opposing opinion
− explain why you don’t agree with the opposing opinion
− make a conclusion restating your position
There are learners who believe that you should do homework only if you have a desire to. Others are convinced that homework is an important part of the learning process and you should be prepared despite your wishes to do the tasks.
Certainly, I believe that homework is essential because it gives you a chance to implement your knowledge in practice. And if you understand material well, then you can easily do that. Otherwise you should repeat theory for one more time. Moreover, doing homework gives you a brilliant opportunity to memorize gained knowledge. If you don’t do that, then most likely you will forget the material next week. Also you can improve your results only if you’re practicing a lot.
Other people are convinced that students don’t have enough time to do all homework. They also say that doing the same tasks is useless and you gain nothing from that. They believe that you should do homework only if you want to.
I cannot agree with the above opinions as these people fail to understand that students who don’t want to do homework are just lazy. They have enough time to do all their chores but they simply don’t want to. In fact you should force yourself to do that and it’s a very important habit.
There are two different points of view on the problem. I believe that students should do all homework that they have. It’s the only way they succeed in school subjects.
