1 . Recently, a junior high school sent several students back home because they broke the school uniform rules. Should students wear school uniforms? The Young World magazine held a discussion on this topic.
Kennedy: The school uniform is very important, because it always reminds me that I am supposed to go out of my way to study hard. It also helps prevent school bullying (欺凌). If everyone wears the same clothes, it is impossible to laugh at other people’s clothing.
Manson: The uniform has to be earned (获得) through efforts. Students should start school with no uniforms. As they make progress at school, they start wearing it. I always think children need to be proud of their school. The uniform is important for that. So, make students earn it! If they don’t perform well, they should not be allowed to get one.
Moorhead: In my opinion, kids don’t have to wear uniforms. There should be more choices open to kids in education. They ought to (应该) develop their own independence and just be themselves. Their personalities (个性) would be expressed through their own clothes at school. And different dress could be one way of showing their understanding of beauty. Besides, they make the school lively and colorful.
Patrick: I can see the advantages of wearing school uniforms. They play a very important role in managing schools. However, a school should not depend heavily on uniforms to improve students’ behaviors. Teaching them how to express themselves with confidence (信心) is more important.

7 . Students must follow rules in schools. But some schools have unusual school rules and you may get a surprise when hearing about them.
In a school in the USA, students cannot wear some winter clothes like jackets or hats in class because they are “criminal symbols.” But the town is freezing even indoors in winter and the students don’t understand why they cannot wear warm clothes to school.
An American college has many dorm (宿舍) rules. One of them is that students must make their bed before 9 a. m. every day. One student said if he wanted to continue to sleep on Saturday morning, he must get up, make his bed, and then go back to sleep on top of the quilt.
Students in a school in Japan will get a punishment (惩罚) if he cannot finish the meal. What’s more, students must not talk at lunch. If a student is found talking to someone, he has to sit alone on a chair with no table.
Teachers in parts of the UK and Australia are told not to grade their student’s homework using red pens. What is wrong with red pens? Well, it’s partly because the color red is felt as danger, and schools think it makes children unhappy when they receive their homework with red marks. Teachers must use other colors like blue, purple, yellow or even with a pencil.

8 . Do you wear school uniforms (制服) at school? Do you like them? In many schools, students must wear (穿) uniforms every day. Ann Rooney is a thirteen-year-old schoolgirl in Hong Kong. In summer, girls in her school wear yellow shirts and blue skirts. And boys wear white shirts, too. But they wear blue shorts. When it’s cold, both girls and boys wear white sweaters and green trousers. They also have blue T-shirts and black trousers for P.E. classes and sports meetings. Ann always wears size S because she is short and thin. Her best friend Lisa Brown wears size L.
But some students don’t like wearing the same uniform every day. Ann has a good idea. She likes to wear different socks every day. “Socks make boring school clothes fun,” she says. Many boys and girls in her school also have socks with different patterns to show their characters (个性). Milly Nichols, 15, is one of Ann’s classmates. Her favorite pair of socks has small pictures of hamburgers on them because she likes hamburgers very much. How about wearing a pair of socks to give some colors to a boring uniform?

10 . Schools in southern China are using “smart uniforms” with chips (芯片) to know exactly where students are. Do you support it?
Kong Yuming, 16:
I am for the “smart uniforms”, because they can help to create a safe campus. As we know, what parents care about most is the safety of their children. Wearing the uniforms with chips, students can be located (定位) by parents at any time. It can prevent students from going to places where they shouldn’t be.
Cong Zhaohan, 15:
Why not have school uniforms with chips? The uniform can locate students and check what they are doing. It can encourage students to create more high-tech products. With the help of GPS, they can help to prevent crimes against students.
Zhang Xianghao, 18:
I don’t agree with the idea. First, although such a uniform can help parents know where their children are, not everyone likes being watched, especially teenagers. They are sensitive (敏感的) about their private things. It can make them feel uneasy. Besides, it seems that such a high-tech product will cost a lot more than poor families can afford.
Zhu Yuanlong, 17:
I am against this idea. It is likely to leak (泄露) personal information. With the coming of big data (数据) information has brought convenience to our lives. Meanwhile, the problem of personal information leakage has become serious. The more users there are, the more dangerous it will be.
