55、king part in school activities We had a heated discussion about whether senior high school students should take active part in school activities. As for school activities, students mainly hold two views. Many students are very enthusiastic about school activities because they think that learning fro
56、m textbooks is not their only task and they should take every chance to get some practical knowledge. Besides, after long hours study, they can relax themselves by practicing in school activities. However , a large group of students take little interest in them and spend most of their time on study.
57、 They believe that they should make full use of time to study and that school activities have nothing to do with their further development. As far as I am concerned, I prefer the first view. On the other hand,we can learn a great deal from other students we meet in activities. Furthermore, modern society requires many qualities of young students, so “book worms” cant keep up with the times.
