Boy Runs Away From Homework
Source: Ananova.com Pre-Reading Questions What would you do if homework became too difficult for you to handle? This is a true story about a boy who ran away to escape the stress of too much homework. Boy Runs Away From Homework A 10-year-old boy stowed away on a train and ran away from home in China - because he had too much homework. Xu Zhiqiang, 10, from Cili town, Hunan province, ended up thousands of miles away from home, reports Information Times. He said he could not cope with the amount of homework he was expected to complete during the one month winter holiday. Xu said: "Each of us has to finish two thick books of homework. Take the mathematics homework as an example, it has 100 pages with all kinds of questions." To make matters worse, Xu's mom found a mistake on one question and punished him by getting him to correct the mistake and copy the right answer 100 times. Click here to read the full Article

What would you do if homework became too difficult for you to handle? We can learn a lot from homeworks which are too difficult . Don't worry with this and do just what is possible first and try again to do more.

In my memory, my brother always do his homework until midnight. And my mother hasn't any good method to teach him. He doesn't too much homework sometime. But he very likes to play with his school things or watches TV. Some time I think don't pressure your child.

Most of students are scared of homework especial children.
Nowadays, children have many subjects to learn so homeworks are increased much. So, they do not have time to play and relax. So, they feel very stressful. Sometimes, I also run away to escape my homeworks. Tiring...Doing homework. But it is a way to get knowdegle. But children need to have their free time. Not only spend your children's time for only learning. Sometimes, you should let they have a free time.  written by salman, May 09, 2010

When I was young I didn't have much homeworks to do. I had the time to play with my friend and the time to spend for studying. During my childhood I enjoyed so much and I think teachers are very strinct with children right now!!!
