    　　Americans are proud of their variety and individuality, yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of an elevator operator or the uniform of a five-star general．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 superior quality from a man who wears a uniform．The television repairman who wears a uniform tends 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 barber, or a waiter to lose professional identity than to step out of uniform?

    　　Uniforms also have many practical benefits．They save on other clothes．They save on laundry bills．They are tax-deductible(可减税的)．They are often more comfortable and more durable than civilian clothes．

    　　Primary among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the consequent 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 tend to think, speak, and act similarly, on the job at least．

    　　Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems．Though they are long-lasting, often their initial expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes．Some uniforms are also give rise to some practical problems．Though they are long-lasting, 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．

    Features　Theme　Disadvantages　Providing　faith　Money-saving　retirement　diversity　purchase/by　requirement/need

         A rich man was once riding along the road and saw an old man digging in his garden. On the ground lay
    a young tree, ready to be planted. The rich man called out to the old man, "What kind of tree are you planting
    there, my good man?" 　　
         "This is a fig (无花果) tree, sir." he said. 　　
         "A fig tree?" the rich man was very surprised. "Why, how old are you, may I ask?" 　　
         "I am ninety years old." 　　
         "What!" cried the rich man. "You're ninety years old. You are planting a very young tree now and it'll take
    years to give fruit. You certainly don't hope to live long enough to get any fruit from this tree." The old man
    looked around the garden. Then he said with a smile, "Tell me, sir. Did you eat figs when you were a boy?"
    "Sure." the rich man did not know why he asked this question. "Then tell me this," he said, "Who planted the

    任务型阅读。阅读下材料，完成1-3题。
         In choosing a friend, one should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun
    together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair weather friends. They will be with you
    as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I
    have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities of character, especially understanding, honesty and
    reliability (可靠). 　　
         Above all else, I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person
    is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person's
    place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener. 　　
         At the same time, however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults (过错) in others. He
    notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me. 　　
         Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet
    me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to
    help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me. 　　
         There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have
    fun. We should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who
    are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience and learn from each other.
    A good friend has a good sense of humor, too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of
    being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me. 　　
         When I meet someone who is reliable, honest, understanding and humorous, I know I've found a friend!
    请根据阅读信息填写下面句子：
    1. The writer thinks a good friend should be _________, ____________, ___________, and ___________.
    2. What is the meaning for fair weather friends? (用浅显易懂的英语来解释)
        ________________________________________________________________________.
    3. Write down a title for this short passage.
        ________________________________________________________________________.
