Your English teacher has introduced a play to your class. Read the play.

Characters: Bob, reporter, 25 years old

Jenny, student, 15 years old

Laura, student, 14 years old

Time: One Saturday morning in spring

Place: On the street

(Bob met Jenny and Laura in the street and began to have an interview with them)

Bob: Excuse me, would you mind me asking you some questions?

Laura: Of course not. And may I have your name?

Bob: I’m Bob. Your uniforms look so great. Which school are you studying in now?

Jenny: We are both from Highgate Junior High School. My name is Jenny and this is my classmate Laura.

Bob: How do you feel about your school uniforms?

Jenny: I think they are very good. Uniforms help the school look smart. I wear my school uniform every day.

Bob: What’s your opinion, Laura?

Laura: I can’t agree more. My father is a firefighter. Every time he wears his uniform, he says he feels a sense of duty. He is proud of the fact that he can help many people who are in need. He looks more handsome when he wears his uniform.

Bob: So you love uniforms because of your father’s influence on you.

Laura: I think so.

Jenny: Besides, when all students wear the uniforms, nobody needs to worry about fashion. In this way, students can pay more attention to learning.

Bob: I see. Both of you think school uniforms are good for you. I believe most students will agree with you. Thank you so much.
