Speaker A. My parents often say it's good to have school uniforms. I don't agree with them. I think school uniforms make us look all the same. It's a bit boring to wear the same clothes every day, isn't it? We cannot even change the colour. My uniform, for example, is blue. I know that this colour doesn't suit me, but I have to wear it anyway. Besides, the uniform can be very uncomfortable. In some weather you feel too hot in it and sometimes you feel too cold.

Speaker B. I don't think about fashion too much, I think comfort is more important. That's why my favourite clothes are jeans, t-shirts and jumpers. I feel very comfortable wearing them and don't have to change too often. Jeans and t-shirts are appropriate everywhere. I can go to a picnic and to a party, do cycling and play volleyball. Your footwear should be comfortable too. That's why my choice is trainers or light tennis shoes. I can't understand people who buy special clothes for every occasion.

Speaker C. Wherever I go, I want to look nice and appropriate. Usually it takes time and effort to decide what to wear and to choose clothes that go with each other. Luckily, I don't have this problem every morning. My school has a uniform. All I need to do is to keep my uniform clean and tidy. School is not a fashion show. We need to concentrate on learning, not on what we're wearing.

Speaker D. Most students do not like wearing school uniform very much, but uniforms are not only for children. Lots of people wear them and for very serious reasons. For example, policemen need to be distinguished from the crowd at once, because others go to them for help and defence. Firefighters wear special clothes that protect them from heat and fire and make them recognisable to each other, which is necessary to work as a team.

Speaker E. I enjoy wearing nice and fashionable clothes and I don't like wearing the same clothes all the time. Last week, I decided that I needed new jeans, but there was no time to go to the shop. I was very busy at school, as it's exam time. A friend of mine recommended buying the jeans in an Internet shop and it took seconds. However, when I got the parcel, I felt really disappointed. The jeans were two sizes too big.
