三、阅读短文，选择正确的答案。
Have you ever wondered what your school uniform(校服) is made of? Many everyday products are made from different materials, and the process(过程) is usually carefully designed.
Most uniforms are made of cotton or a mix of cotton and polyester(聚酯纤维). Cotton is soft and
comfortable, so it is widely used for clothing. In many factories, cotton is cleaned first and then processed(加工) into thread(线). After that, the thread is turned into cloth by machines. Finally, the cloth is cut and sewn(缝) into shirts and trousers.
Some parts of uniforms are made of different materials. For example, zippers(拉链) may be made of metal or plastic. Buttons are often made of plastic, and they are produced in large numbers because they are inexpensive. Sometimes, a school logo is made of metal, and it is painted to make the surface bright.
Why do people care about materials? One reason is safety and comfort(舒适). Another reason is the environment. If clothes are made to last longer, fewer resources(资源) are wasted. Students can also help by taking care of their uniforms: wash them wisely, avoid high heat and repair small holes instead of throwing the clothes away. Knowing materials helps us understand products and make better choices.
In addition, some schools choose materials that dry quickly, because students exercise a lot. When clothes are made well, students feel comfortable and can focus on learning. So materials and processes both matter. It also helps schools save money.
Some factories also reuse water during the cleaning process to reduce waste. In this way, making uniforms can be more friendly to the environment. Small changes can protect our planet.
