31、mericans prefer to answer with a brief 'Yes ' , ' No ' , ' Sure ' , or the very popular ' Yeah ' rather than with a longer reply. But brief replies do not mean Americans are impolite or unfriendly to some extent. Very often, American

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-

40、star general. Why are uniforms so popular in the United States?Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in they 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

41、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 (身份) than to step o

42、ut 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 conseq

43、uent 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.Unif

44、orms 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 expansive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civili

57、e.In some African societies, however , marriage has nothing to do _ an official registration of this kind but is legalized by the formal exchange of goods.Generally _ is the bridegroom who is required to make a payment of goods to the brides kin(亲戚), though sometimes a payment is _ made by the bride

58、grooms kin to that of the bride.Among the Nuer, a people living in Southern Sudan, the payment made to the brides kin, _ as bride wealth, is in the  of cattle. Once the amount of bride wealth is agreed _ , and the formal payment is made, the marriage becomes a _ union and the offspring of the u

63、vertheless, it is not very wise to ask a  question like “How old are you?”. If elderly people want to talk about their age, and perhaps receive a compliment(恭维话) on how young they look, they may easily bring  the topic themselves and ask the other to  how old they are.
