Why are uniforms so popular in the United States Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than civilian (百姓的) clothes. People have become conditioned to expect higher quality from a man who wears a uniform. The television repairman who wears a uniform is likely to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes. Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform. What easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a hairdresser, or a waiter to lose professional identity (职业身份) than to step out of uniformUniforms also have many practical good points. They are often more comfortable and more lasting than civilian clothes. Primary among the argument against uniforms is their lack of variety and the loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them. Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement. When people look alike, they are likely to think, speak, and act similarly on the job at least. Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems. Though they are long-las6ng, often their initial expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes. Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes.Those who are against uniforms believe that people wearing uniforms ()A. are usually helpfulB. bare little freedomC. lose personal characterD. enjoy greater popularity4.A man once said how useless it was to put advertisements in the newspapers. Last week, said he, my umbrella was stolen from a London Church. As it was a present, I spent twice its worth in advertising, but didn’t get it back.How did you write your advertisement asked one of the listeners, a merchant.Here it is, said the man, taking out of his pocket a slip cut from a newspaper. The other man took it and read, Lost from the City Church last Sunday evening, a black silk umbrella. The gentleman who finds it will receive ten shillings on leaving it at No. 10 Broad Street. Now, said the merchant, I often advertise, and find that it pays me well. But the way in which an advertisement is expressed is of great importance. Let us try for your umbrella again, and if it fails, I’ll buy you a new one. The merchant then took a slip of paper out of his pocket and wrote: If the man who was seen to take an umbrella from the City Church last Sunday evening doesn’t wish to get into trouble, he will return the umbrella to No. 10 Broad Street. He is well known. This appeared in the paper, and on the following morning, the man was astonished when he opened the front door. In the doorway lay at least twelve umbrellas of all sizes and colors that had been thrown in, and his own was among the number. Many of them had notes, fastened to them saying that they had been taken by mistake, and begging the loser not to say anything about the matter.Did the merchant know who had taken the umbrella()A. Sure.B. Not very sure.C. Not at all.D. Probably.5.Californian Michael Schwabe said goodbye to the gas pump two years ago. He leased an electric car.
