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 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 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 .

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 .

The need for love is deeply rooted in the human psyche(灵魂). 1 Separateness, according to psychologists, means to be cut off, helpless and alone in the world. It is the source of all anxiety. 2 It can be selfish and possessive, or unselfish and giving. Abraham Maslow distinguishes between two kinds of love: B-love or "being love" means love for another person: unselfish love not dependent upon your own needs. D-love or "deficiency-love" is a selfish possessive love which is based upon someone else"s ability to satisfy your needs. D-love is conditional. It depends upon whether personal needs continue to be met…But B-love is unconditional. 3 Furthermore, as it depends upon who you are, it is possible only when you allow yourself to be known to the other person. The psychologist Erich Fromm also distinguished between two types of love. 4 Symbiotic union is an immature love based upon the satisfaction of needs and is similar to Maslow"s concept of D-love. Mature love, on the other hand, is a relationship that allows individuals to retain(保持) their independence, their identity, and their integrity. In mature love people can overcome their sense of separateness yet continue to be themselves. The mature lover would say , "I love you because I need you," but the mature one: " 5 " A.There are two types of love. B.I need you because I love you.
