 The Pros and Cons of School Uniform



    School uniforms are dress codes that are determined by the teaching institutions and students has to follow the designed code obediently everyday.  Many people believe that school uniforms should be applied but the others don't.
    Uniforms have various advantages for both the family and the child. A united school apparel can relief a financial stress of the backs of many families.  As kids tend to compete and imitate each other, the race of following new trends in fashion or, providing different attire for every school day is considered a financial burden, not every family can afford it.
    Additionally,  a uniform creates a sense of equality between all pupils. Young kids tend to judge others according to their look and what they wear. Uniting their school attire will draw their attention to other criteria and, the only advantage of one student over another would be personality, academic achievement or being good at sports.
   On the other hand, as repetition can lead to boredom, children can get frustrated of wearing same thing to school every day.  Also, prevent their first steps of individuality by taking away their right to choose what to wear on their own free well.
   In conclusion, I believe uniforms aren’t meant to suppress the creativity or freedom of children. It helps redirecting kids creativity towards more important things than outer look, and waive financial burden of their families.




The Advantage and Disadvantage of Nuclear Power

   Nuclear power is generated by using uranium which is a metal mined in various part of the world. The first large scale of nuclear power station was opened at Calder Hall in Cumbria, England in 1956.
   Some military ships and submarines have nuclear power plant for engine. Nuclear power produces around 11% of the world's energy needed, and produces huge amounts of energy. It cause no pollution as we would get when burning fossil fuels. The advantages of nuclear plant are as follow:
  • It costs about the same coal, so it is not expansive to make.
  • It does not produce smoke or carbon dioxide, so it does not contribute to the greenhouse effect.
  • It produces huge amounts of energy from small amount of uranium.
  • It produces small amount of waste.
  • It is reliable.
  On the other hand, nuclear power is very, very dangerous. It must be sealed up and buried for many years to allow the radioactivity to die away. Furthermore, although it is reliable, a lot of money has to be spent on safety because if it does go wrong, a nuclear accident ca be a major accident.
People are increasingly concerned about this matter. In the 1990's nuclear power was the fastest growing source of power in many parts of the world.
