Presenter: Good afternoon. Today we have asked five people to give us a short interview and share their opinions about school uniforms. Now we would like to present their opinions to you.
Speaker A
My parents often say it's good to have school uniforms but I don't agree with them. I think school uniforms make us all look the same. They often come in dull colours like dark blue or dark green which are not exactly the colours which teenagers like to wear or find attractive. Modern teenagers need a chance to express themselves, wearing the clothes they really like, not those monotonous colours and styles all the time.
Speaker B
In my opinion, school uniforms might be a nice thing. They don't look boring but it would be nice if they made it from different materials. I don't know why but the material for school uniforms is just horrible. In some weather you feel too hot in it. In some times you feel too cold. Uniforms also wrinkle easily, which makes pupils feel bad. Skirts are also not the best idea for girls. I think trousers are more practical and make girls feel confident.
Speaker C
I think it's a really good idea that students look the same in their school uniforms. Some people may find it boring. Let me look at the issue from a different standpoint. I don't have to think what to put on in the morning, I worry if I look cool enough comparing with my classmates. Before our school introduced the uniform it used to take me ages to pick an outfit in the morning. It's actually very convenient though uniforms are not always attractive.
Speaker D
My parents think that buying a school uniform is a sheer waste of money. Well, it may look nice and be practical but let's face it. It costs money. If not for the school uniform, I'll be wearing jeans with shirts or T-shirts to school, these items of clothes have to be bought anyway, unlike uniform. Uniform isn't cheap. And as kids grow really fast, you need to spend extra money every year. It would be better without school uniforms.
Speaker E
Some of my classmates think that school uniforms prevent them from wearing what they want and they look bad in them. But I think school uniforms are so nice looking. It looks great when all the girls and boys in the class wear the same colours. Besides, the colours selected for school uniforms are always elegant and attractive and suit most youngsters. School uniforms are stylish and many students of good schools are happy and proud to wear their uniforms.
