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(纸条) 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(先令) 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 extreme 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 colours that had been thrown in, and his own was among the number.

  A characteristic of American culture that has become almost a tradition is to respect the self-made man-the man who has risen to the top through his own efforts, usually beginning by working with his hands.While the leader in business or industry or the college professor occupies a higher social position and commands greater respect in the community than the common laborer or even the skilled factory worker, he may take pains to point out that his father started life in America as a farmer or laborer of some sort.

  This attitude toward manual(体力的)labor is now still seen in many aspects of American life.One is invited to dinner at a home that is not only comfortably but even luxuriously(豪华地)furnished and in which there is every evidence of the fact that the family has been able to afford foreign travel, expensive hobbies, and college education for the children; yet the hostess probably will cook the dinner herself, will serve it herself and will wash dishes afterward, furthermore the dinner will not consist merely of something quickly and easily got from contents of various cans and a cake or a pie bought at the nearby bakery.On the contrary, the hostess usually takes pride in careful preparation of special dishes.A professional man may talk about washing the car, digging in his flowerbeds, painting the house.His wife may even help with these things, just as he often helps her with the dishwashing.The son who is away at college may wait on table and wash dishes for his living, or during the summer he may work with a construction gang on a highway in order to pay for his education.

  BALTIMORE-When 15-year-old Michael Thomas left home for school last May, he couldn’t have been prouder.On his feet, thanks to his mother’s hard work, were a pair of new Air Jordans-$100 worth of leather, rubber and status(身份)that to today’s youth are the Mercedes-Benz of athletic footwear.The next day it was James David Martin, 17,who was walking down the street in Thomas’ new sneakers, while Thomas lay dead in a field not far from his school.

  Martin was arrested(逮捕)for murder.

  For the Baltimore school system, Thomas’ death was the last straw.He was the third youngster to have been killed over his clothes in five years.Dozens of others had been robbed of brand-new sneakers, fashionable jogging suits, leather jackets and jewelry.

  This fall, the school board announced a dress code preventing leather shirts and jackets, jogging suits, gold chains and other expensive items.Joseph Smith, Board President, said, “Clothes have just gotten out of control”.Across the nation, parents, school officials, psychologists and even some children agree.They say that today’s youngsters, throughout the nation, have become clothes concerned(关心).They worry about them, compete over them, pay no attention to school for them and sometimes even rob and kill for them.

  In many cases, students are so concerned about what they and their classmates are wearing, they forget what they come to school for, educators said.In response, many public schools, mainly in eastern cities, have used school uniforms to cut down on competition.Educators say, in the present fashion climate, dressing students alike allows them more freedom to be normal individuals.
