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. 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 expensive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes.

根据下面内容,回答题:
Gold used in jewelry is mixed with harder metals to add strength and durability. The metals added can also be used to change gold" s color, giving it a fashionable rose or white tint, or to lighten or darken the natural yellow, tone of pure gold.Mixtures like these, of less costly metals with more valuable ones, are called alloys. Copper and silver are the most common metals mixed with gold to make yellow gold jewelry. White gold is usually made with an alloy of gold and nickel.
The measure of gold" s purity is called a karat. The higher the karat rating,the higher the amount of pure gold: 24 karat is pure gold,18 karat is 75% pure gold,14 karat is 58.5% pure gold, and 9 karat is 37.5% pure gold. All other things being equal ,the higher the percentage of pure gold used in the alloy,the more valuable and expensive the jewelry wll be.
Gold jewelry pieces are usually stamped with a marking to identify the karat amount. While gold that is 24K is too soft for jewelry,18K,14K and 9K gold are all appropriate for jewelry, and they all make pieces that look great and wear beautifully.
