62、ld do social practice. Some students hold the view that middle school students should do social practice. They believe social practice can help them know more about society and give them much experience. By doing so, they can greatly develop their ability and put what they have learned in books into

I think it is good for students to do social practice. As we spend most of the time studying in school, it is a very good chance to enrich our practical knowledge, which will in turn benefit our studies at school.
