No one should be forced to wear a uniform under any circumstance. Uniforms are demanding to the human spirit and totally unnecessary in a democratic society. Uniforms tell the world that the person who wears one has no value as an individual but only lives to function as a part of a whole. The individual in a uniform loses all self-worth
There are those who my that wearing a uniform gives a person a sense of identification with a larger, more important concept. But what could be more important than the individual himself? If an organization must rely on the dress style and its buttons to inspire its members, it tends to show its weakness in market competition and is going to the dogs.
Some argue that the practice of making persons wear uniforms, say in a school, so as to eliminate all envy and competition in the matter of dress. A poor student who cannot afford good-quality clothing is not to be belittled by a well-dressed student. But these arguments conveniently ignore such critical concepts as freedom of choice, motivation, and individuality. But why should one strive to be better if all others were to wear the same style of clothing? It acted as if everyone in, society were demanded to buy the same model car, or have the same type of daily food. When this happened, all incentive to improve one’s life is removed. Why would parents bother to work much hard, wishing that their children could enjoy a better life than they do when they are certain that their children are going to be forced to have exactly the same life as they do now?
Uniforms also hurt the economy. Right now, billions of dollars are spent on the fashion industry yearly. Thousands of persons are employed in designing, creating and marketing different types of clothing. If everyone were forced to wear uniforms, artistic personnel would be unnecessary. Sales persons would be superfluous as well; why bother to sell the only items that are available? The wearing of uniforms would destroy the fashion industry, which in turn would have a ripple effect on such industries as advertising and promotion. Without advertising, newspapers, magazines, and television would not be able to remain in business. One entire information and entertainment industry would collapse. [br] The word "superfluous" (Line 4, Para. 3 ) most probably means______.
选项
A、indispensable
B、available
C、surplus
D、supplementary
答案
C
解析
语义题。根据上下文“If every one were forced to wear uniforms, artistic personnel would be unnecessary. Sales persons would be superfluous as well;why bother to sell the only items that are available?可知,一旦人们统一地穿上制服,设计人员就没有存在的必要了。同样,销售人员也是多余的了。
