Every school has its own set of rules to keep students disciplined （守纪律的）. The rules change from one school to another. Some schools are much stricter than others. There are also some rules that look strange or funny to us. Here are some funny school rules:
Japan: Most schools demand that students wear uniforms, such as sparts suits or skirts. But many Japanese schools even regulate（规定）the color of underwear! They also demand that girls’ white socks be folded in a certain way and boys’ heads be shaved（刮过的）. Other Japanese schools tell students that they can not date（约会）, go to movies, leave home after sunset or play video games without permission.
The USA: For safety at USA schools, students must have a pair of indoor shoes to change into at school every day. Because this makes sure students won’t fall over on the slippery floors and keeps the schools clean. Gum （口香糖）chewing is not allowed in USA school buildings, because it is difficult to clean up. And if students chew gum in class, they may not focus on their study.
Britain: Strange hairstyles are not allowed in some British schools. But they might allow students to wear certain hairstyles during the World Cup. Two students had a special design shaved into their hair during the World Cup. But they were not accepted by their school after that because the school said the rules had changed since then.

I’m not happy. There are too many rules in my house. It isn’t fair. I have to get up at five o’clock every morning. I can’t arrive late for school. I have to be there at eight o’clock. I have to come back home after school because I have to do my homework. In the evening I can’t watch TV because I have to help my mother make dinner and wash the dishes. I have to go to bed before ten o’clock. On weekends, I have a lot of things to do. I have to stay at home on Saturday morning. I have to clean my room and wash my clothes by eleven o’clock. On Saturday afternoon, I have to go to the Children’s Palace to learn the piano. Do you have lots of rules? Are they fair?
Your friend,
Helen
