The thrill achieved by that one perfect kick straight into the feet of the waiting teammate right next to the goalie’s box. The skill and precision that goes into one sport that the world goes crazy for.

School days should be shortened by two hours‚ because students should have more time to complete homework and study. One reason to shorten the school days is that if you want to get into a good high school or college‚ students will need lots of time for homework. The students will also need time to study for quizzes and tests. Another reason to cut the school days by two hours is because of how many children finish their homework at late hours‚ but with these shorter days‚ students would be able
