My View on Taking After-school Classes

It is nothing new that many students go to take after-school classes now, but in my opinion, it’s just a waste of time and money. When I was in primary school, my parents sent me to different kinds of these classes, too. But later I realized I didn’t want to do that anymore. I began to spend more time on reading, doing sports and taking social activities. However, I didn’t fall behind any others in study.
现如今，学生去参加补习班不是什么新鲜事了。但在我看来，这既浪费时间又浪费钱。我还在读小学时，我的父母就经常送我去不同的补习班补习。但后来我意识到我不想去了。于是，我开始把时间花在阅读、运动和社会活动上面。但是，我的成绩并没有落下。

If I have time, I will play basketball with my friends. It’s a wise way to stay in good health. I really enjoy it. Through playing basketball, I know how to cooperate with others, and I make a lot of friends, too. What’s more, I become stronger and taller. I have benefited a lot from it. And now I become more creative and confident than those who are always involved in taking after-school classes. I think students should spend more time on doing the things they like instead of going to after-school classes, thus we can live happier.
如果我有时间，我就会和朋友打篮球。这是保持好身体的方法。我很喜欢篮球。通过打篮球，我学到了如何与他人合作，也结交了许多朋友。我从中收益很多。现在，我比参加补习班的时候更具有创新力、更自信了。我想学生应该花更多的时间做他们喜欢做的事情而不是去上补习班。这样，我们会活得更快乐。
