School Uniforms
Official Audio Prompt
Three students were talking during break about the school's new idea to make uniforms mandatory next semester. The first student liked the idea. She said uniforms would save time in the morning because she wouldn't have to think about what to wear. The second student agreed and said uniforms would stop students from judging each other based on clothes. He gave an example of a girl who was teased for wearing shoes that weren't a popular brand. But the third student didn't like uniforms. He said they're boring and take away personal style. He loves wearing his denim jacket with patches and feels that uniforms would make everyone look the same. The first student replied that personality can still show through accessories like bracelets or colorful socks. She also said uniforms would save families money since they wouldn't need to buy new clothes every season. The second student added that uniforms are practical for PE and art class, and his family saved money when his younger brother's school introduced clothes. The third student pointed out that not all uniforms are cheap-some schools make pupils buy expensive ones from specific stores. He also worried about poor fit and comfort. The first student suggested the school could offer more size options and help families who can't afford uniforms. The second student said students could still show their style with hair clips or shoes, as long as they obey the rules. In the end, the third student said he still doesn't love uniforms, but with size choices and cost support, he thinks it's better than he thought.
