18、ct few things more than a uniform. Why are uniforms so【 46】 po_in the United States? Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more【 47】 _ (profession) than civilian (百姓的 ) clothes. People have become conditioned to【 48】 ex_superior quality from

19、a man who wears a uniform. The television repairman who wears a uniform tends to inspire more【 49】 tr_ than one who appears in civilian clothes. Faith in the【 50】 sk_of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform. What an easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a barber, or a waiter to lose pr

20、ofessional identity (身份 )【 51】 _to step out of uniform? Uniforms also have many【 52】 pr_benefits. They save on other clothes. They save on laundry bills. They are often more comfortable and more durable than civilian clothes. Primary among the arguments【 53】 ag_ uniforms is their lack of variety and

21、 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, 【 54】 _retirement. When people look alike, they tend to think, speak, and act【 55】 sim_, on the job a

22、t least. Section A 50 Mark Twain pointed out that if work were so pleasant, the rich would keep it for themselves. But however much people may think they dislike work, everyone has a deep psychological need for it. Everyone wants to be valued, and wages and salaries are the visible proof that we mat

23、ter. Not all kinds of work qualify, however. No matter how worthwhile or demanding they might be, bringing up children, housework and voluntary employment are not usually seen as “proper jobs“. The only “proper“ job is one that provides paid employment. Being paid for job in our society means higher

24、 personal status. Of course we would also prefer work to be useful, pleasant and interesting and also well paid. But you dont really have to enjoy your work to get pleasure from it. The fact that we have to overcome some difficulties, that we have to deal with doing routine tasks, in some way gives

25、us pleasure. For example, having to be in a particular place at a particular time, working as part of a team towards a common goal, gives us a sense or purpose. The modern workplace also provides somewhere where people can assert their identity or create a new one. Without work many people became un

26、tidy and lazy, and find they are unable to enjoy the leisure time which is available to them. When some people retire from work, they lose their sense of value and purpose, for most of their lives their personality, self-image and status have been defined by work; without it they lose their appetite

27、 for life. People who suddenly lost their jobs can find the situation particularly difficult. At a single stroke they lose all the advantages and status that a paid job provides. In a culture dominated by work, they are seen by those with jobs as incompetent or lazy. It is little wonder that stress

28、and illness occur more frequently among the unemployed. Employment is now changing, however. Information technology has already significantly altered the world of work. For many, the idea of a job for life is no longer realistic. Many people fear they will lose their jobs, and some are being persuad

29、ed to accept the possibility of part-time work. Even the workplace itself may become a thing of the past with more and more people working at home. This means that we may no longer be able to depend on work to define ourselves and our position in society, and that we will have to find new ways to gi

30、ve our lives a sense of value and purpose. 51 Mark Twain pointed out that_. （ A） the rich should work more （ B） work is not such a pleasurable thing （ C） the rich should keep all the work for themselves （ D） work makes people rich 52 People have a deep psychological need for work because_. （ A） they

31、 want to be rich （ B） they like being told what to do （ C） everyone needs money （ D） they want to be valued and work proves this value 53 People dont have to enjoy their work to get pleasure from it because_. （ A） the salary makes them happy （ B） they get used to the routine （ C） coping with problem

32、s can be satisfying （ D） they know their work is still useful 54 People who have no work often_. （ A） enjoy their leisure time （ B） develop a better self-image （ C） have difficulty coping with the change （ D） take an interest in new activities 55 The arrival of information technology has_. （ A） enha

33、nced peoples interest in work （ B） made work more stressful （ C） made the workplace unnecessary （ D） made people change their attitude to work Section B 55 Visiting the White House White House Tours Public tours of the White House are available for groups of 10 or more people.
