kids hate homework ． However ， their parents hatehomework ， too ．Is it good for kids to do homework ？ Of course ， a great number of researches doshow that kids can remember what they have learnt in class better by finishing theirhomework on time and homework itself plays an important role in developing their learning skills，such as independent thinking and creativity．But for parents，the result is not the same．After a day of hard work，most of them feel like they're going through school a second time when they sit down with their children each night to help with their homework．And a recent survey found that46 percent of parents feel like they don't spend enough quality time with their children，because they spend too much time doing the housework or helping with homework．And another29percent of parents have arguments with their kids often when they have different answers to the same question．Now several education scientists strongly advise parents to stop helping．They say it will give their kids more independence and give parents back their free time．At the same time，the number of homework﹣connected arguments will be less at home．Katy Smith，an education scientist，says，"You don't have to know everything．Children need to put their hands up for help and so do parents．Use your resources﹣online teachers，or even your neighborhood﹣just ask．"（1）What do we know from the researches mentioned in Paragraph2？A．Homework improves learning skills．B．Both parents and kids hate homework．C．Kids love doing homework by themselves．D．Parents enjoy sitting down helping their kids．（2）Most parents feel when they are helping their kids with their homework．A．they are at work againB．they are school students againC．they are teachers of their kidsD．they are not as good as their kids（3）Why do some parents argue with their kids？A．Their kids don't finish homework on time．B．Their kids don't like to do their homework．C．Their kids don't work out the correct answers．（D ．Their kids don 't agree with them on the answers ．30．（8 分）Y ou are walking alone down the street ． Suddenly ， you hear footsteps ． Issomeone following you ？ How do you know the footsteps are someone else's
