河北普高专升本英语（阅读理解）模拟试卷15
常规阅读
According to a historian, uniforms were introduced into the United States around 1979 to deal with the problems of violence among students. Statistical reports state that only 15% of primary schools and around 10% of secondary schools in the United States have strictly carried out the uniform policy.
In recent times it has become the most debated topic among parents and educators, with many critics stating the fact that wearing uniforms has no effect on the thought process of a student nor does it considerably reduce inequality among the masses. Students are instructed to follow certain rules; for boys, pants, shirts with turtlenecks, sweaters and jackets are acceptable, while in some schools, shorts are strictly forbidden; similarly, for girls, long skirts, blouses, pants and flat-heeled shoes are acceptable.
School uniforms in other countries such as Thailand, Indonesia, India and Pakistan were introduced during the British colonial period. In these countries, girls in senior schools usually wear broad trousers and boys wear pants and shirts. In preschool though, girls wear skirts and blouses and boys wear short pants and shirts. In other parts like New Zealand and Australia where the British colonial rule was in effect, the uniform system was followed in the public school system. The dress sense closely resembled that of the English students.
The purpose of a school uniform is to promote team spirit, discipline and increase equality among all students. Though uniforms have intended to wipe out the discrimination in the weaker section, critics have a different story to say. According to them, uniforms have no such great effect on students. This standardized dress has not helped students remove any barriers and is adding costs to the parents.
In many countries, though students\’ wearing uniforms has produced some positive results, in the United States, the implementation (实施) requires a lot of efforts before we can achieve full success.
