69、e version: My opinion on copying others homework It is known to us all that some students copy others homework. As students, we have to do plenty of homework both at home and at school, but sometimes we have some homework which is too difficult for us. On the other hand, some students are lazy, and
70、are not interested in their lessons. They dont work hard. In order to finish the assignments and please their teachers, some students copy others homework.In my opinion, it is wrong to copy others homework because it breaks the school rules. Students should be honest and try to finish our homework by ourselves instead of by copying. Even though we have trouble doing our homework we can ask our classmates or teachers for help.
