22、 food is prepared and also about prices or tips if you are not sure about them.You should never talk to another person while you still have some food in your mouth.

23、t.Be careful not to put your elbows on the table while eating. It is not terrible, but it can be considered a little bit rude by those people who are formal.Dont worry about the time.

Since all
27、 activities remain interesting for only so long, too much homework can lead to boredom. So, why are some kids getting homework overload?Teachers give two reasons. First, they say, the government now requires schools to meet higher-than-ever achievement goals for students. If students dont succeed, t
28、he school faces punishment. Second, many parents want their children to be able to get into the best colleges and universities. These parents believe homework is a way to make sure that students are learning as much as possible.People who favor homework argue that it can have many beneficial effects
29、. They claim it can help students develop good study habits. Homework can help students recognize that learning can occur at home as well as at school. It can help develop their independent learning and responsible character traits (性格特征) .But studies show that middle school students doing 60 to 90
30、minutes of homework a night are doing just as well in school as those doing more than 90 minutes. And homework can have negative effects.

31、tion to helping kids stay physically active. Another problem with too much homework is that parents can get too involved. They can put too much pressure on their kids.So what should be done?
