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 【B1】______in the United States?

Uniforms also have many practical 【B5】______. They 【B6】______other clothes. They are tax-deductible. They are often more comfortable and more 【B7】______than civilian clothes.

Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally 【B9】______it, without change, until retirement. When people look alike, they tend to think, speak, and act similarly, on the job at least.
Uniforms also 【B10】______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.
