Ⅻ. One possible version:

Should students do their homework while listening to music? Some students think so. They think that doing homework while listening to music is a good way to stop them from hearing other noises, like the noises of cars in the street. What’s more, music can make their study environment more relaxing. But some students disagree. They think if they listen to music, they will make more mistakes in their homework. Also, doing homework while listening to music always makes them work slower. It’s a waste of time.

As the old saying goes, every coin has two sides. If you put your heart into your homework, it doesn’t matter.
