Summer holiday homework assignments are defeating the purpose of the holiday because they are way too difficult, parents of many primary school pupils complain, Guangming Daily reported.
据《光明日报》报道，近日，不少小学生家长对孩子的暑期作业提出质疑，认为难度过大，给孩子的暑假徒增烦恼。
Chinese class assignments for a 2nd-grader now include: "2/3 of a frog=?" and "Feet - shoes and socks + lawn=?" The answers are believed to be 2 proverbs: "Having head but no tail" (meaning to quit doing something halfway) and "having one's feet on the ground" (meaning to have a sensible and practical attitude toward life).
例如，小学二年级语文作业中，竟有"2/3青蛙＝？""脚-鞋袜+草地＝？"这样的题目。答案据称分别是成语"有头无尾"和"脚踏实地"。
Many believed those ridiculously tricky questions are a result of fierce academic competition.
有反对者认为，这样的偏题怪题是升学压力的体现。
