Americans are proud of their variety and individuality (个性), yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of a lift operator or the uniform of a five-star general(将军).
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 expect higher quality from a man who wears a uniform. 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 uniform?
They are often more comfortable and more lasting than civilian clothes.
Among the arguments 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.
Though they are long-lasting, often their initial(最初的) 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.
A.Americans think highly of uniforms .
B.Why are uniforms so popular in the United States?
C.When people wear the same uniforms, they are likely to think, speak, and act similarly on the job at least.
D.Uniforms also have many practical good points
E.Some practical problems with uniforms arise.
F.The television repairman who wears a uniform is likely to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes.
