书面表达:
　　Recently we held a discussion about whether the students should use cell phones at school or not. Some of us think cell phones should be used at school. The phone makes it easy and fast to get in touch with our parents and friends when we are in need. And it also makes us easy to be found, so that it can decrease the possibility of our danger. However, some other students don't think so. Because many students even play on the phone when they are having classes. They spend so much time texting messages or making phone calls that they pay less attention to their studies. In my opinion, the students should use the cell phone at school. But we should use it properly and don't spend too much time on it.
