Today living and working conditions have improved, and such __3__ would no longer be so true.The clothes people choose to wear, however, do provide information about their __4__. The most obvious way in which is for the amount of money spent on them. Expensive clothes look expensive and show their wearer had money. Clothes can provide other __5__ as well. The upper classes __6__ to be less interested in fashion and wear good quality clothes in non-bright colours, made of natural material like wool, leather or cotton. Lower working class people often choose clothes in bright colours, made of man-made material. A sociological explanation for this would be that color and interest are mssing from their lives, and therefore any opportunity to introduce this is __7__.Clothes are __8__ at a price within most peoples reach.

They want people to look at them.A) available B) background C) different D) tallE) totally F) taken G) descriptions H) degreeI) clues J) alone K) appear L) considerM) full N) hobby O)fetched

  ANSWER:1.选J)。此处应填副词。可选项有totally和alone,由前一句中just可推出,外表上的细节仅仅能告诉我们这个人的健康状况,平时的营养状况以及他所从事的工作而不能看出他所处的阶级,故排除totally而选alone惟一。

  2.选D)。此处应填形容词。因此此句和前一句是在将以前的工人阶级和上层阶级的身体状况进行对比,故此处应填与small矮的意思相反的词,选项中只有tall符合题意。而full丰满的不能用来修饰sporting types,故排除。

  3.选G)。此处应填名词。现在的生活和工作条件改善了,情况已经不同了。而such指代的是上文中对一百年以前工人阶级和上层阶级的身体状况的身体状况的描述,故descriptions描述符合题意。

  4.选B)。此处应填名词。根据句意衣服可以提供...方面的信息,选项中有background和hobby,选background人的背景,社会阶层,符合文章主题。

  5.选I)。由as well可知,此处应填名词且与本段首句中的informaiton的意思相近,选项中只有clues线索符合题意。

  6.选K)。此处应填动词的原形。选项中有appear和consider,appear可直接接不定式;而consider带不定式的复合结构,用于主动语态时,consider后面得接宾语,故选appear。7选F)。这句中this指代bright colour,句子主干是any opportunity is...。可选项有taken和fetched,take抓住则可以与opportunity搭配,但fetch拿来不能与opportunity构成动宾搭配,故排除fetched而选taken。

  8.选A)。此处应填形容词。句子意思是衣服的价钱......,大多数人都买得起。选项中只有available可以接受的符合题意。

  9.选H)。此处应填名词。由a price within most peoples reach可推出,此处新衣服向外界显示的是穿衣者的富裕程度,故选择degree程度。

  10.选C)。此处应填形容词。由new fashions和feel important可推出工人阶级想通过穿衣来改变他们,而选项中只有different与众不同的符合此意,故选择C)。

  全文翻译:如今,没法一眼就判断一个人属于哪个阶层。外表上的细节只能告诉我们这个人的健康状况,平时的营养状况以及他所从事的工作。而100年前,工人阶级看上去常常显得不健康,身材矮小,不是太瘦就是太胖。上层阶级的人却常常是身材高大的运动员体型,他们因为营养良好而看上去很健康。现在生活和工作条件改善了,那样的描述已不再正确了。现在的人比100年前的人要高些。然而,人们选择的衣着确实给他们的背景提供了一些线索。最直观的就是衣服的价格,价格不菲的衣服看上去很昂贵,也能显示出穿衣者的富有。当然衣服也能提供一些其他方面的线索。上层阶级对潮流不那么感兴趣。他们会穿质地好,颜色暗一点的衣服,通常是由羊毛,皮革和棉花等天然材料制成的。而下层工人阶级则挑一些颜色鲜艳由人工原料制成的衣服。社会学对于这一点的解释是:工人阶级的生活中缺乏亮丽的色彩,他们也无法去追求个人兴趣,因此只要有机会增加色彩,他们就会抓住这个机会。服装的价钱适当,大部分人都买得起。新衣服能让穿衣人感觉良好,同时也能向外界显示出此人的富裕程度。但是现在,一些新潮流是从下层劳动阶级兴起的。他们想让自己看上去与众不同并觉得自己很重要。他们只是想吸引别人的目光。
