It's not necessarily a photo Chris Whitehead’s parents will be framing and keeping on the mantelpiece.
Chris Whitehead的父母不必将这张照片用相框框起来,一直摆放在壁炉台上。
But they are certainly proud of him. The 12-year-old wore a skirt to school yesterday to protest against “discriminatory” rules which ban boys from wearing shorts.
但是他们当然为Chris感到骄傲。昨天这个12岁的小男孩穿着短裙上学,抗议学校禁止男孩子穿短裤的不公规定。
He says it is unfair that girls can change into skirts during the hot weather, while boys have to swelter in long trousers.
他说,在炎热的天气里,女孩子们可以换上短裙,然而男孩子们却必须穿着热死人的长裤,这样不公平。
This, he says, affects their concentration and ability to learn.
他说,这使他们不能专心学习,阻碍了学习能力的提高。
The schoolboy is taking advantage of a ‘silly loophole’ in the uniform policy at Impington Village College, near Cambridge, that means boys can wear skirts as the school would be guilty of discrimination if it tried to stop them.
这个小学生正是利用了这所临近剑桥,名为英平顿地方乡村学校制服规定里的一个小漏洞。这个漏洞“允许”男孩子们可以穿短裙,因为如果学校阻止他们这样做,学校就犯了“歧视”罪。
“In the summer months, girl students are allowed to wear skirts but boys are not allowed to wear shorts,” Chris explained yesterday before his protest.
昨天Chris在抗议之前解释说,在夏季学校允许女学生们穿短裙上学,但是男学生们穿短裤却是不被允许的。
