Dear Editor,

I’m writing to tell you about the discussion we’ve had about whether it is necessary for middle school students to carry mobile phones to school.

The majority of the students think that it is more convenient for them to keep in touch with their parents and classmates if they have a mobile phone. And what’s more, it’s the latest fashion.

However, most teachers think middle school students are not old enough to control themselves. It is a waste of time for students to play games and send messages to each other by mobile phone. And it easily causes the students to vie with each other. If necessary, they could make phone calls by using public phones on the campus.

In my opinion, following the fashion is understandable. But as middle school students, we should put our heart into our studies.

Yours truly,

Li Hua
