进入高一, 新的学期开始了, 你穿校服了吗? 统一校服与学习成绩有关吗?
There are several reasons why school uniforms are a good idea. First of all,uniforms help the school look smart. The students feel that they belong to a particular group. When every pupil in the school wears the uniform,nobody has to worry about fashion(时尚).Everybody wears the same style of clothes. Uniforms can be useful in unexpected ways. A school in Ireland has introduced an interesting new uniform. On the edge of the jacket,there is a piece of cloth that gives off light in the dark. When the children are walking or cycling to school on dark mornings,car drivers can easily see them.
But can uniforms help improve school standards?The answer to this question is not clear. One study in America found that students' grades improved a little after the school introduced uniforms. But some students didn't want to wear the uniform. Other American studies showed no connection between uniforms and school performance.
School uniforms are traditional in Britain,but some schools are starting to get rid of them. Some very good schools don't have a uniform policy. However,uniforms are still popular. Pupils at about 90 percent of British secondary schools wear uniforms.
