Argumentative─How to Wake up for School(议论文如何早起上学)

【Aiden in English】
School is a sore subject for most kids; even the word carries around groans and sighs. Children are often bored at school, and learning can seem like a chore. So, many don't like to wake up and go to school just because they have to learn or are too lazy, even though they know their parents will still force them to do so. What I don't know is how easy it is to get to the bus stop on time with this simple process.
Getting to the bus stop well before the bus arrives should be simple for kids, but the new generation has many different factors to consider. Most of them are lazy and lack the discipline to wake up on their own. This is why alarm clocks were invented, and an excellent function of some alarm clocks is the snooze bar. It would prevent any dozing off to the sight of darkness outside and the coziness of the blankets. So the first step to waking up early, and probably the most crucial and complex, is to get an alarm clock. If a good, solid, loud ring or beep from an alarm isn't enough to jolt you into reality, I don't know what will. Set the alarm at least half an hour before your school bus arrives to give some breathing room in between. Sometimes, when people see how much time they have, they return to the dream world and oversleep. To avoid this situation, fling off the blankets. The house's crisp, cold morning air should shock you into action like no other, but if you are reluctant to try this, your alternative is to have Mom come busting into the room with a karate kick. Once you are up and going, get dressed quickly. The best advice I can give you here is to pick out your clothes the night before, so no delay or thinking is involved. Don't like considering options at dawn; I'm no different. The next step in the morning process should be one of the longest. Breakfast is today's most important meal, providing the kick-start to the coming challenges. This shouldn't have too much urgency, but chewing like adoesn't make the bus come any earlier. Take as much time as necessary, and once finished, move on to brushing your teeth and washing up. This step varies from person to person because some enjoy taking a quick five-minute shower, while others prefer to brush their teeth as soon as they wake up to eliminate bad morning breath. If your task requires additional steps beyond what I've included in this process, feel free to add them in the morning. Don't forget to give yourself a few extra minutes on the timer. You're ready, take your school bag, which, to save time, should be packed the day before, and walk outside to your bus stop. If this process is perfected, that bus will come much later.
Children have a natural tendency to be lazy, and waking up early to get to school isn't any different. Sometimes, raising your head off the pillow seems impossible, but if you do, you can avoid oversleeping and get to the bus on time. Sleeping in and delaying school might be appealing, but being tardy is the price you will pay for falling behind or not having the urgency in the morning. It's just a matter of not being lazy, living with the fact that there is school, and waking up to the sound of the alarm.
