Writing ①# 双减政策 #

“双减”背景下，国家对作业布置提出了新的要求。假如你是李明，你所在学校的英文报刊开展题目为“My Ideas on Homework”的主题征文活动。请你给该专栏投稿，内容包括：

(1) 你最喜欢的家庭作业，简单陈述原因；

(2) 你最开心的一次家庭作业经历(包括内容、收获等)；

(3) 给现有的家庭作业布置提出两点改进建议。

As a student, it is quite important for us to finish our homework to review what we have learned.

I prefer homework that can improve my problem-solving ability and broaden my horizon. Because I prefer quality-oriented education to exam-oriented education. Last term, our English teacher asked us to communicate with a foreigner and discuss the experience with other classmates. Instead of letting us speak and recite articles, our English teacher chose a better way to make us confident and have a better understanding of English. That’s my happiest homework experience I’ve ever had.

In my opinion, I hope teachers will assign less copying. I also hope teachers will give us more social practice homework.

Writing ③# 模范榜样 #

(1) 介绍“了不起”的他／她；

(2) 他／她做了哪些“了不起”的事？

(3) 作为中学生……

Everyone is excellent!

There are many excellent people in the world, such as excellent scientists, excellent players and so on. But I think everyone including ordinary people can be excellent, too. My classmate Tom is very excellent.

Tom is my best friend. He is tall and fat. He likes to read books and play football. He is good at every subject and always ready to help others. One day, I failed my math exam, and I felt very sad. He noticed my feeling and tried his best to help me with my math. With his help, I made progress in math. Last Monday, our classmate Mike was seriously ill and we decided to donate money to him. Although Tom himself doesn’t have much money, he still donated all his pocket money to Mike. I think he is very excellent.

As middle school students, we should learn from those excellent people and make ourselves excellent.

Writing ④# 全面发展 #

(1) 好学生的标准；

(2) 从哪些方面提升(不少于两点)；

(3) 对自己的期待。

We act, we improve

As students, it’s our duty to study hard. But as a good middle school student, I think we should be independent and honest. At the same time, we should also be hard-working.

To be better students, we have a lot of things to do. First, we’re supposed to be friendly to others and behave politely in public. Second, we should have good habits. Habits play an important role in our life. We’d better develop our interests and the ability to create. Third, we should care more about others and be thankful to all the people who have helped us. Value the time we spend with our family and friends in our daily life. Last but not least, I think we should exercise more to keep healthy.

I hope I can be a really excellent student who can make contributions to our country when I grow up. In a word, the more we act, the better we will improve.

Writing ⑤# 五育并举 #

(1) 一些人赞成：音乐和美术可以给青少年带来快乐，促进他们全面发展；

(2) 一些人反对：对于没有艺术天赋的人不公平；忙于准备这些考试，更 无法享受音乐和美术的美。

提示词：全面发展 all-around development, 中考 the entrance examination

Now people are talking about adding Art and Music to the entrance examination.

Many people have different opinions. Some are for it, and others are against it. Some people think that music and art can bring happiness to teenagers and promote their all-round development. On the other hand, others think that music and art are unfair to those who have no artistic talent. Besides, children are too busy preparing for these exams to enjoy the beauty of music and art.

In my opinion, music and art can be taken as elective courses. Students who need it can learn it. Students who don’t need them can also use them to relax themselves.
