"Dear! Those are 900 yuan! That is too 1 !"
"But all the boys in my class wear this brand(牌子)!"
So the real story is:Kids 2 to catch up with school fashion.
Chinese students 3 uniforms at school.Parents think all the kids look the same, but kids know the differences.The "rich" kids wear amazing watches, ride good 4 and use cool pencil cases.They show off their expensive things to 5 kids.Then everyone else wants them too.For example, some "rich" kids use a pencil box that 6 1,000 yuan! It not only holds pencils, but also has a thermometer(溫度計), a compass(指南針), a music box and even games in it! But think about it.Do you really need 7 a special pencil box? What can you do with a compass or a thermometer in class? They only distract(分散注意)you.
As for these "rich" kids, they are not rich at all. 8 parents buy them all their school things.They may have an advantage now, but it won't last forever.If you want to show off 9 money you have, you have to make it yourself first.So, study hard.You will get a great job in the future.
Parents should also learn 10 to refuse their kids' demands(要求).They should tell their kids:as students, what is really important is not school fashion but good school grades.
