Believe it or not, there are good reasons for wearing a school uniform. It makes you 1__ proud of your school. It builds a common spirit of unity (ÕûÌå) among students and 2 them of the values and history of their school. But for most students, school uniforms are not something to be proud of 3 .

A school clothes competition was held in April in Beijing.

¡°The perfect uniform should remind the students of the school¡¯s honor and cause them to be proud of it 19 they are,¡± Chen said. Zhai added, ¡°During the 2008 Olympic Games, the whole world will see the new appearance of our 20 century young generation with new school uniforms.¡±
