Writing exercise

I think just a little children of China have no time to play sport because our teacher gives us a lot of homework and we can’t play any sports. So I think it’s important for Chinese kids to do homework sometimes we have a lot of homework, then I do it to very late. Then it’s very dark outside. I can play sports very well but I can’t do my homework very quickly and I think my teacher all the time are thinking “study study and study”.
