A new law has just been passed requiring schools to burden students with more tests. Most kids these days hate having tests and homework, but I'm not one of them. I find homework fascinating, especially when it comes to history and science and reading, which are my favorite subjects. Though tests are not my favorite pastime, I do consider them useful.
