Recently our school has set up a rule that no student allowed to take their mobiles into class, that has aroused a heated discussion among us students. Many of the students feel strong against the rule, arguing that the mobile had become a necessary part of our life. They also consider it a must for us to get relaxing from our busy studies.
When it comes to me, like some other student I hold a different opinion. While a mobile phone can help we get some relief, without it we can be more devoted to our studies, but spare more time to communicate with those around us. Therefore, I believe in this school rule is benefit to every student.
Yours, Li Hua
