School is a big part of life. Not just for kids, but for families, too. And for teachers. Everyone has an opinion about what is best for students. Do kids need homework? Some of our readers say students need the extra work. Others say homework takes time away from exercise. Here's what some of you said.
Peter: Kids need homework. When they learn something new in school, reviewing it at home helps them remember it. . It tells them how much students are paying attention in class and who needs more help.
Olivia: Giving students homework is a bad idea. . They can do activities that build a healthy mind and body. Homework just causes stress. And stressed students do poor homework. That is worse than doing none at all. If students are working hard in class, they do not need the extra work.
Jack: I think kids need homework. But the amount should vary by age. At my school, primary students get homework. But it is not too much. For example, we might have to learn spelling words at home. Then we will take a test in class. We do most of our learning in class. For some homework, we have to hand it in. . We get a special prize for doing it.
Wendy: Homework is pointless. Kids already spend six hours a day in school. Homework just makes them repeat what they've been doing all day. What's more, homework takes time away from activities like team sports, hobbies, and playing. . They keep kids active.
A. These are just as important as schoolwork.
B. Kids need time for themselves after school.
C. Other homework depends on our own choices.
D. Homework teaches kids time management skills.
E. And our homework gives teachers valuable information.
Do you think it's necessary for students to do homework? Why or why not?

My name is Henry Adams. When I was 27, I worked in New York. One Saturday afternoon, I sailed my small boat, but a strong wind pushed me into the Pacific Ocean. Luckily, a British ship going to London saved me.
I had only one dollar when I got to London. I was tired and hungry. Then, a man from a nearby house called me inside. I went into a nice room where two old men were talking. The two men were brothers. They had been arguing (争吵) for days about something strange. One brother said, "If an honest and smart stranger comes to London with no friends or money, with only a £1,000,000 bank note, he will die from hunger. If he tries to change this big note at the bank, the police will think he stole it and arrest (逮捕) him." The other brother disagreed.
The two men decided to solve their argument with a bet. They chose me because I looked honest and clever. Also, I was new to England. One of them gave me an envelope (信封) and told me not to open it until I was in my hotel room.
After leaving the house, I opened the envelope and saw money inside! I rushed to the nearest restaurant. After eating, I tried to pay with the money but found out it was a one million pound note! It made my head swim. No one could cash (兑现金) it. The restaurant owner said, "You can pay whenever you want, sir. I know you are a rich gentleman playing jokes by dressing like a poor man."
I quickly went back to the house but was told they had left for a trip. Then I remembered the letter in the envelope. It said, "In this envelope, you will find some money. It is yours for only 30 days. At the end of that time, return to this house. We have a bet on you." How strange! Then, I went to a clothes shop to buy a cheap suit.
