VIII. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the

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.
Recently in Greece many parents complained about the difficult homework which teachers gave to
their children. 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. In Denmark, Germany and


several other countries in Europe, teachers cannot set homework at weekends. In Holland, teachers allow
students 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 student who can do his homework in a quiet and

comfortable room is in a much better position than a student who does his homework in a small, noisy
room with the television on. Some parents help their children with their homework. Other parents take
no interest at all in their children's homework.
It is important, 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!

VIII. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the

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.


Recently in Greece many parents complained about the difficult homework which teachers gave to
their children. 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. In Denmark, Germany and
several other countries in Europe, teachers cannot set homework at weekends. In Holland, teachers allow
students 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 student who can do his homework in a quiet and
comfortable room is in a much better position than a student who does his homework in a small, noisy
room with the television on. Some parents help their children with their homework. Other parents take
no interest at all in their children's homework.
It is important, 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!
