57、description六、写作Do not sleep in classQuite a few students in our school sleep in class, and it is worse that they take it for granted. In my opinion, sleeping in class is a bad thing that does terrible harm to us.Firstly, if a student sleeps in class, he cant gain knowledge from their teachers. As a
58、result, they are to fail to pass the college entrance examination one day. Secondly, those who always sleep in class make a bad impression on other students. Last but not least, those who sleep in class may have more chances to catch a cold, which affects their health. In short, we students should not sleep in class. Instead, we should concentrate on listening to our teachers in class. If some of us are sleepy in class, we may keep standing for a while until were energetic.
