16、ol day in many schools. Do you think that daily homework is necessary for students or not? The following are the proponents and opponents opinions.

17、h sides and give your view on this issue. Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, organization and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks. YES NO Homework is necessary for students, because practice makes perfect. Firstly, h

18、omework is the way the teacher provides guidance for students. By checking their homework, the teacher can find out the weakness of the students, and guide them accordingly. Hence the homework can help students learn efficiently. Secondly, sometimes if a student doesnt have the must-do homework, he

19、wont review or preview the lesson willingly because of the lack of motivation. Thirdly, homework can reflect how well the student has mastered the knowledge. On the other hand, the teacher is able to find the problems in his/ her teaching, and make corresponding adjustments, ei- ther for all the stu

20、dents or for a single one. Many teachers assign homework to students every day. Personally, I think it is not necessary. To begin with, if the teacher doesnt have classes today, there is no need for him/her to as- sign homework. Because if the teacher still does, perhaps the students will not have e

21、nough time to review other lessons learnt the same day. In addition, every student has his/her right to own leisure time. They are not machines.

24、nd give your view on the issue. Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, organization and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks. YES NO Putting forward the filial piety standards is aimed to promote the traditional Chinese v

25、irtue of respecting the elderly. China has a long history of stressing filial piety, which forms the core of family values. Compared with the traditional filial devotion, the new standards are more up to date and relevant to modern society. The new standards are an inno- vative way of inheriting the

26、 essence of filial culture. The modern society lays great stress on the le- gal regulation while filial piety which depends on peoples moral sense and inner discipline seems unable to prevail. What we need now is a code of conduct that helps to persuade people to practice filial piety. These standar

27、ds do not intend to force people to obey filial principles by law, but provide them with a guideline. As a moral requirement for human beings, filial piety is unlikely to have perfect standards. Real filial piety is not something to be shown off to others, but something buried deeply in ones heart.

28、Due to dif-ferent living and working environment, the ways of practicing filial piety may be different. It is unwise to require every child to follow the same standards. Besides, the new standards are not feasible in modern days as many people live far away from their parents and have little time be

29、sides work. The implementation of these new filial stand- ards is not the right solution to the problem of Chinas aging population. As for the government, it is more effective to build up more staterun nursing homes rather than issue filial standards in order to solve the problem. （分数：20.00）_5.Read

34、you find a reason not to take another step towards success is the moment you stop being successful. In the symphony of success, excuses are just noise.
