【范文欣赏】 Recently our class had a heated discussion about whether middle school students can go to school with mobile phones. Our opinions are as follows. Some students think mobile phones can help them keep in touch with their friends, especially their family

whenever they need. Besides, games in the mobile phone offer more fun to them. However, the other students think they should not bring their mobile phones to the class, because the ring of phones can disturb teachers and students in class, and even worse,

it will influence their study. Meanwhile they will spend too much time and money on phone calls and sending messages. Personally, I’m strongly against students using mobile phones in class. Only in this way can we create a quiet environment for our studies.
