Hello, everyone. This is my duty speech. My name is Zhang Shuo. I'm glad to see you here.
Now, I want to talk about homework.
These days, students are under too much pressure because of tons of homework. Research shows that lots of homework is not very useful. The reason why teachers leave so much homework is that they think too little homework will make the students have nothing to do. However, many teachers don't think that some of the homework is meaningless. For example, our English teacher often leaves so much homework that my classmates are always complaining about it. I wonder whether we can have less homework.
Now, here is a saying.
The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.
It's "真正讓我們感到恐懼的冰悠，只是“恐懼”本身" in Chinese.
Now, I want to ask you two questions.
No.1 Why are students under too much pressure?
Because of too much homework.
No.2 Do you think we should have less homework?
Yes!
OK, I want to read again.
(Repeat the duty speech)
That's all for today, thanks for listening.
