Every school has its own rules. The rules change from one school to another. There are also some rules that look strange or funny to us. Here are some funny school rules.
Japan:Most schools demand(要求)that students wear uniforms, such as sports suits or skirts. They also demand that girls' white socks should be folded in a certain way and boys' heads should be shaved(剃).
The US:At some US schools, students must have a pair of indoor shoes to change into every day. Chewing gum(香糖)is not allowed(允许)in many US school buildings, because it is difficult to clean up.
Britain:Strange hairstyles are not allowed at some British schools. But they might allow students to wear certain hairstyles during the World Cup.
Do you have a very strict teacher? I do. He is Mr. Grand, our geography teacher. We call him "Mr. Grumpy", because he often gets angry. Not finish your geography homework? Good luck to you. Mr. Grumpy will give you a good lesson.
"Rules, rules," the old man always says. No student can be late for class. Everyone must keep quiet in his class, and finish homework after class. And no one can ask for leave (请假) on test day.
Many of us are afraid of Mr. Grand. When we do well in the test, Mr.Grand is very happy. He buys us sweets (糖果). We think he is lovely only that time.
My uncle Mike is a music teacher. He never gets up very late. He usually gets up at five o'clock in the morning. After he brushes his teeth, he often plays baseball with my aunt. Then he eats his breakfast.
After that, he often plays the violin. At 7:50 he takes the number 6 bus to his school.
He has no classes on Thursday and Friday. He usually goes to the violin club. There he helps kids with the violin. Oh, my brother plays the violin very well. Do you love to play the violin? Do you want to join the violin club? Please call my uncle at 116-3886.
