Donna and Mark were in the boat.Donna was a good girl.She was going to Spain with her family.Mark was a shy handsome man.He also was going to Spain to stay there for two weeks.
One day Donna and her family were watching sea birds.Donna saw the boys who were very noisy.She saw a shy,handsome fellow.It was Mark.Mark also looked at Donna and smiled her.
Donna and Luiza went to a disco.Donna was waiting for Mark,she wanted to see him very much.
A handsome man came up to Donna and invited her to dance with him.It was Mark with his beautiful and friendly smile.Donna danced with him for a long time.A little later she saw Mark near the entrance to the disco.He was very shy and calm.
During all that time she was dancing with Mark's brother Dave.She stopped dancing and went to look for Mark.She wanted to appologize to him.She didn't know where Mark was.She couldn't find him.She wanted to return to England to see Mark.
Mark had been waiting for Donna since 6 a.m. ,but at 8 o'clock he went to look for Nick and Dave.Donna and Luoza came to the cafe at 8 o'clock.When the boat arrived,Mark and Donna tried to catch sight of one another,but they did't meet in the boat.They met at wild-night in Komilarce.Komilarce is a small town not far from Madrid.There are a lot of buildings,shops,cafes and parks in this town.And in one of these parks it was a disco-night.Many people from Komilarce,Madrid,France, England and Germany visit it.Donna was with her family.She wanted to meet Mark.
Mark didn't want to go there because he wasn't interested in dancing.But he thought about Donna.Dave,Harry and
Nick persuaded him to come.They were sitting at the table when Donna's and Mark's eyes met.Time stopped.
Donna and Mark were together!

I personally favor, because when the student has a school uniform, he looks like a business, and school uniform is preparing to advance business style that is so (strictly) to go to work. Sometimes you want to come and show the new sweater / hoodie or ripped jeans, but you can not and the student understands and adheres to the rules.
Я лично ЗА, потому что, когда ученик носит школьную форму, он выглядит более деловым, и школьная форма заранее готовит к деловому стилю, что именно так ( строго) нужно ходить на работу. Иногда хочеться прийти и показать новую кофточку/толстовку или рваные джинсы, но НеЛЬзЯ и ученик это понимает и придерживается правил.
