M:Who's your teacher?W:Mr.Railton.M:Oh,he teaches us as well.He's OK.Why don't you ask him what you're doing wrong?W:He's out for lunch.M:Hmm,that is a problem.Our class hasn't done this experiment,so I can't really help.W:Oh well,thanks anyway.M:Let's have a look at your textbook.I'll see if I can figure it out.W:Here it is.Page 320.M:OK,so you've got this chemical and you've got that chemical.W:Correct.See,I told you I was right.M:And here is the liquid,which needs to be heated to boiling point.(15)W:Ah...Does it say that?(15)M:Yes,look.(15)W:Oh,I see.I think you might have found where I was going wrong.(15)M:Let me help you do it again.(16)Text 10Thank you for allowing me to speak at this meeting.I'm Sara,and I have two kids whoattend this school.Younus is in 4th grade,(18)and his sister Amira is in the year below.My kids love learning.However,over the past couple of years,I've noticed them bothbecoming very stressed about their education.The reason for this is clear-homework.Eachyear,they're given more and more.And now,they simply have too much,between two tothree hours every night.This leaves them with very little time to relax,to play or to be withfamily.I do believe in the value of homework for older students,but we can't prove thathomework is helpful for kids of primary school age.In fact,in Finland,younger children aregiven almost no homework,yet 93%of kids graduate from high school,compared to 78%inCanada,and only 75%here in the US.(19)So,I'm here to suggest an experiment.For one term,let's forget homework,(20)andencourage kids to play,follow their own interests and be with family after school.I don'tbelieve school performance will be affected.In fact,I think this will result in kids that arehappier,more focused and more excited to learn.I'm interested to hear everybody's thoughts.英语试题评分参考第4页（共4页）⊙公众号·橙果园
