B. Read the passage, then choose the one best answer - a, b, c or d.

Many people now think that teachers give students too much homework, They say that it is unnecessary for children to work at home in their free time. Moreover, they argue that most teachers do not properly plan the homework tasks they give to students. The result is that students have to repeat tasks which they have already done at school.

The parents said that most of the homework was a waste of time, and they wanted to stop it Spain and Turkey are two countries which stopped homework  recently.
