Your opinions:
1. “After-school classes can help kids get into a good university.”
2. “I want my child to be a successful person.”
Your opinions:
I disagree. Many factors may influence one’s life. Even though one goes to a good university, maybe he still can’t be successful.
I agree. Many great people learn things from a very young age. If the child is gifted in some area, it’s helpful to learn it from a young age.

The proper way(s) of students to relax
I am a student of Class 3, Grade 2, No.22 Middle School. Recently I have made a survey of the students in my class on ways to relax after class.
There are 56 students in my class(29 boys and 27 girls).Different students have different ways to relax. Half of the students often watch TV.Ten students like to play computer games while eight enjoy listening to music.Five students think doing sports is a good way and another five are too busy to relax.
As we study too long every day and suffer from too much pressure,every student should choose proper ways to relax. In my opinion,watching TV or playing computer games is not a proper way to help us relax.I think taking exercise is a proper way because it can rest our brains and eyes.Besides, it can help improve our health.Therefore,I often play ping-pong after class.It's really helpful to both my health and my study.
