All schools have their own rules (规则). The rules change from one school to another. Some schools are much stricter(严格) than others. There are also some rules that are strange or funny to us. Here are some funny school rules:
Strict Japanese rules
Most schools ask students to wear uniforms, such as sports suits or skirts. But Japanese schools even have rules about the colour of underwear! They also need that girls' socks should be folded(折叠) in a certain way and boys' heads should be shaved(剃).
Other Japanese schools tell students that they can't go to the movies after sunset.
