Ex1: Read the following passage. Write T(for TRUE) or F (for FALSE) and NI if there is no information given.
Many people now think that teachers give pupils too much homework. They think 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 pupils. The result is that pupils have to repeat tasks which they have already done at school.
Recently in Greece many parents complained about the difficult homework which teachers gave to their children. The parents said most of the homework was a waste of time, and they wanted to stop it. Spain and Turkey are two countries which stopped in Europe, teachers cannot set homework at weekends. In Holland, teachers allow pupils to stay at school to do their homework. The children are free to help one another. Similar arrangements also exist in some British schools.
Most people agree that homework is unfair. A pupil who can do his homework in a quiet and comfortable room is in a buch better position than a pupil who does his homework in a small, noisy room with television on. Some parents help their children with their homework. Other parents take no interest at all in their children's homework.
It is improtant, however,that teachers talk to parents about homework. A teacher should suggest suitable tasks for parents to do with their children. Parents are often better at teaching their own children!
