Should mobile phones be allowed at school
Nowadays mobile phones are becoming more and more popular among middle school students. But people have different opinions about whether mobile phones should be allowed at school or not.
Everything has two sides and mobile phone is not an exception. It has both advantages and disadvantages. Some students hold the opinion that they should take their mobile phones to school, which bring them conveniences. First, they can learn about the world and the latest information in time. Second, it's convenient for them to communicate with their parents and friends. Moreover, they can surf the Internet at any time in any where to get the message they want to know. However, others are against using phones at school, as they think students get addicted to phones easily, especially playing on-line games. Spending too much time on phones has bad effect on their study, whilch may also influences their sleep and does harm to their eyesight.
As far as I am concerned, middle school students have a weak self-control, mobile phone does more harm than good, so it shouldn't be allowed at school.
近些年以来，我们国家出国留学的中学生越来越多，对此趋势，有人赞成，有人反对。根据下面的要点，写一篇英文作文，并表达你的看法。
支持的观点 1.可以有一个更好的环境，学习英语，提升自己；2．开拓视野，在各国文化之间架起桥梁。
反对的观点 1.年龄太小，不能照顾好自己；
2．很难明辨是非，容易犯错。
你的看法 ……
注意：1.词数80左右；2．可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。
【范文】
In recent years, more and more middle school students have gone abroad for further study. Different people have different opinions about it.
Some people think it a good idea. In their opinion, if middle school students study abroad, they will have better language surroundings to study English, where they can easily improve themselves. What's more, studying abroad can broaden their horizons and at the same time bridge a variety of cultures.
However, other people have different opinions. From their point of view, middle school students are too young to take good care of themselves. What's worse, it is very difficult for them to tell right from wrong, and they may make mistakes.
As far as I'm concerned, studying abroad for middle school students isn't necessary. Firstly, it costs an arm and a leg. In addition, our country is becoming better and better, and we have excellent teachers, helping them improve themselves.
