Whether students are working on English or chemistry homework, they are simply working on the assignment in order to get it done, attempting to memorize the concepts for the time being and do not absorb any of the information afterward. Students are wasting their time on insignificant assignments rather than effectively using that time to achieve other accomplishments. According to www.dailymail.com, many parents are concerned that homework is being assigned rather than being used to integrate (整合) what teachers are covering in the classroom. In their eyes, if less homework is assigned, students would have much less stress ‎ and could focus more on their passions and hobbies.‎ Homework gets in the way of participating in community service events as well as opportunities for getting a job or being a part of an extra-curricular activity. These responsibilities are important for teenagers to take on because they prepare the teenagers for the "real world." Without the proper exposure to work that is not school related, students will find themselves lost after they graduate. If homework were no longer given, students would have a lot more time to mature in other fields rather than being educated only on academics.‎ In spite of the fact that teachers want students to do better on tests and absorb the material that they are teaching, homework is not accomplishing its purpose. Because school is becoming increasingly more competitive and challenging, homework is becoming a setback rather than extra practice. Its removal would benefit the well being of teenagers as well as encourage them to get out in the "real world" and discover themselves instead of staring at a pile of assignments.‎ ‎47.

Traditional heroes are no longer sought after anymore. Today, it's unconventional leading figure -like Francis J. Underwood from "House of Cards" who are winning audiences' hearts.‎ The political drama, which airs on the Internet service Netflix, has won the applauses of viewers around the world since its debut on February 1, 2013. And it has caught the attention of real politicians, including US President Barack Obama. Kevin Spacey plays Francis J. Underwood, a cold-blooded Democrat who moves his way up the political ladder by any means necessary. He often uses his under-exposure in media to carry out misdeeds that will later benefit him.‎ The revenge theme plays a heavy role throughout the storyline, Underwood, who had high hopes for an appointment as Secretary of State in the first season, was betrayed by the US President and his former colleagues. He andhis wife then conducted a plan of revenge and swore to unseat those who turned their backs against him. Through their plan,‎ ‎ Underwood's own hunger for power grew and empowered him to eliminate whoever stood in his Way. The release of the trailer of the second season excited millions of viewers around the world, including US PresidentBarack Obama, who has been a loyal tan since the series debuted. Obama expressed his admiration for Underwood. "Thisguy's getting a lot of stuff done. "he said. Although the President is anxious to watch the story unfold, he'd like to do it athis own pace. After the release of the second season on February 14,2014, Obama sent words on his Twitter account, "Tomorrow: @HouseOfCards. No spoilers, please."‎ The second season has promised to be darker, with more unexpected turnouts, and is to include more Chinese elements.
