"Mum, I want this pair of shoes!"
"Dear! Those are 900 yuan! That is too
__16___ !"
"But all the boys in my class wear this brand (牌子)!"
So the real story is: Kids__
_17____to catch up with school fashion.
Chinese students _
_18__ uniforms at school. Parents think all the kids look the same, but kids know the differences. The "rich" kids wear amazing watches, ride good
19__and use cool pencil cases. They show off their expensive things to
20__ kids. Then everyone else wants them too. For example, some "rich" kids use a pencil box that
_21_1,000 yuan! It not only holds pencils, but also has a thermometer (温度计), a compass (指南针), a music box and even games in it! But think about it. Do you really need ____22___ a special pencil box? What can you do with a compass or a thermometer in class? They only distract (分散注意) you.
As for these "rich" kids, they are not rich at all.
23__ parents buy them all their school things. They may have an advantage now, but it won’t last forever. If you want to show off
