Do you think backpacks are important for students? Do you think backpacks are useful!? You may say yes. But a lot of schools in America are banning (禁止) backpacks in class now. Here are some reasons (理由).
Students may bring something unnecessary or dangerous to school. They may put phones into their backpacks and they may carry foods. To do with these problems, some schools make a rule - No backpacks in classrooms.
Students' backpacks take up too much space in the classroom. Because of them, the hallways are always full of backpacks. Without them, the classroom will be clean and tidy.
▲ Backpacks=Bad Backs! Some backpacks are big. If a student takes a heavy backpack,
he or she may have problems in the neck, back and shoulders (肩膀). Many schools ban the use of backpacks to help students keep healthy.
With the rule, students don't have to take backpacks during school hours. They must keep them in lockers (储物柜). Do students like such a rule?
Some of them think the rule is good. They are happy to put their backpacks into the lockers before walking into the classroom. But some of them don't like it" Without a backpack, it's hard for me to take so many things with my hands," Amelia said." I keep losing things, like my cards," a seventh grader Nikitha said. "I'd like to keep my backpack because my locker isn't near my classroom," said Kemezis.
