Heavy Schoolwork

In my opinion， the schoolwork now being assigned to high school students is too heavy。 While it is true that students need to study， they need other things as well if they are to grow into healthy and well-rounded adults。

High should be allowed more time for play。 Plying is not wasting time， as some think。 It gives them physical exercise， and also exercise their imagination。 Which tends to be stifled by too much study。 Finally， the pressure put on high school students by excessive schoolwork can cause serious stress， which is unhealthy physically and mentally。 I do not advocate the elimination of schoolwork。

I do think， however， that a reduction of the current heavy load would be beneficial to students and to the society as a whole。
