　　Cdl Phones in High School

　　With the development of the society, an increasing number of high school students have their own cell phones now. A hot debate about whether cell phones should be used in the classroom arises.

　　There is no doubt it makes them easier to communicate with their teachers or classmates. If they meet a problem, they can call their classmates or teachers. It is very convenient. But I don' t think it' s a good idea for high school students to use cell phones in the classroom. For some students, they don' t know how to allocate time. They might spend too much time sending messa-ges, listening to music or surfing on the Internet with the phones. Without doubt, they would spend less time studying in consequence.

　　So it' s advisable that parents should not buy their children cell phones unless they can make sure they will be used properly.
