In some big cities in Britain, identical houses in similar areas are sold for very

__different___ DIFFERENCE prices. Why is this? Each school in Britain has a list of streets it takes its students from. It can only take students from another area if there are not enough local students to take up all the places. Understandably, parents will

_happily HAPPY pay more for a house in a street where their children could attend a better school.

What about those who can’t afford to pay more for their house? At the moment, if they don’t have the

__ability___ ABLE to pay, their children will have to go to a worse school which probably has more problem students and lower exam results.

Some people believe that this is

_unfair___ FAIR. They say that the children of poor parents who want a good

_education EDUCATE should have the same chance as the children of richer parents. They suggest introducing a ‘lottery’ schemes to decide which school a child will attend. The idea is that the better students will help the others and the teachers will be able to control them

___more easily___ EASY.

Obviously, not everyone likes the idea. The parents who are upset are generally richer and more

__powerful___ POWER than the others, and they have a good chance of keeping things as they are. The ideal solution, of course, would be to make all schools better.

School is an essential part of our lives. Pupils spend most of their time at school studying and interacting with classmates. Can school classmates make best friends? Let's try to find out.
Personally, I do not think classmates become best friends. You communicate with your classmates only at school. Usually, you do not spend your free time with them. Besides, after graduating(or graduation?) classmates go to different universities, their interests change. They stop communication with each other at all. Can we call them best friends? I am not sure.Moreover, it is problematic for students to get with classmates. Some students have rich parents and all privileges in life while others can only dream about this. Some pupils believe in God and others do not. Some of them love pop music when others can't stand it. These differences may cause conflicts or even bad blood.
However, pupils are children and teenagers. They start being friends with someone just because they like that person. Children are not interested in financial status or fashionable clothes. They can be true friends. Actually, classmates do not only study together. They often deal with school problems, do many projects, prepare for exams and events together. There is no doubt it brings them closer.
I cannot agree with this statement. It is hard to make friends with your classmates. Students are afraid to share their emotions and thoughts. They are afraid to be judges and pushed away. 
In conclusion, I would like to say it is important to have a good relationship with your classmates, but it is unlikely that you will become best friends.
