Do pretty school uniforms lead to early romance?

A technical secondary school in Nanjing planned to order Korean-style school uniforms for students, but parents didn’t agree because they believed that the new uniforms looked too good and would encourage early romances among the students.

Parents

“My daughter was so excited about the Korean-style uniform, saying it’s her dream to wear mini-skirt to school every day,” a mom complained. “Girls also talk about how handsome the boys looked in the uniform! If the students wear such beautiful uniforms, how can they study well? I prefer the sports wear which makes me think of health and positive(积极的) thinking.”

Students

The students are sorry about the school’s final decision. They think the sports wear uniforms make them look androgynous (难分性别).

They said the Korean-style uniform has many advantages such as raising interest in class and lifting confidence. It is also considered to be a good way to develop their sense of pride for the school and help then create good temperaments(气质).

As for romance, the students believe that love is love and has nothing to do with the uniform.

School

“The plan to change the school uniform from sports wear has been cancelled,” Mr Lin, a teacher, told the interviewer.

“The students dislike the present uniform, most of students prefer Korean style school uniforms. We know cities like Shanghai and Guangzhou have changed their sports wear school uniforms to more fashionable uniforms. However, we had to stop the plan because many parents are strongly against it. Some parents think it’s just a way for the school to make money, and others think the new uniforms will take students’ attention away from their studies,” Lin said.

When asked about the problems with early romance between students because of the more fashionable uniforms, Lin said he hadn’t considered it. He, however, agreed that the Korean-style uniform makes the students more attractive.

Education department

“We don’t have a unified (统一的) standard for school uniforms. The schools can choose their own styles. Either sports wear or uniforms are OK,” an official said.

Great changes have taken place in towns that we have lived in for centuries, while completely new cities are being built. One such place is the city of Songdo. Every home there will have a “telepresence” system(远程遥控系统)—allowing users to control the heating and looks, take part in video meetings, and receive education, healthcare and government services. Around the city, escalators(自动扶梯) will only move when someone is on them, and offices and schools will all be connected to the system.

The great mind behind Songdo is from the company Cisco. In fact, technology companies around the world such as IBM, Siemens and Microsoft are already in the business.

About 75% of the world’s population will live in cities by 2050, so cities will need to be more modern to deal with the coming problems. “Making cities smarter is one way out, and I think this will in turn make cities greener,” said Dan Hill, head of a research company.
