Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to

You can do a few things to make homework less stressful. First, be sure you understand the assignment
and its requirement. Write it down in your notebook or day planner if you need to. It is much easier to
take a minute to ask the teacher during or after class than to struggle to remember later that night!
Second, use any extra time you have in school to work on your homework. Many schools have libraries
that are specifically designed to allow students to study or get homework done.
Third, pace yourself. If you don't finish your homework during school, think about how much you have
left and what else is going on that day, and then plan your time. Most middle students should have
between one and three hours for homework a night. If it is a heavy homework day, you will need to
devote more time to homework.
No one is expected to understand everything, and may be you need some help. The first place to turn
for help is your teacher. But if you don't feel comfortable with your teacher, there may be other teachers
who teach the same subject. Speak to other teachers directly and you may be in luck. Sometimes it just
helps to have someone explain something in a different way. Moreover, you might also be able to get
some help from another student. If there is someone you like who is a good student, think about asking
that person if you can study together.
