If women are mercilessly exploited year after year, they have only themselves to blame. Because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that am out of fashion, they am always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores. Clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion. When you come to think of it, only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.
Changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. Women who cannot afford to throw away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time altering the dresses they have. Skirts am lengthened or shortened; neck-lines am lowered or raised, and so on.
No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion designers am rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability. They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look fight. There can hardly be a man who hasn’ t at some time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, or delicately picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes.
When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion, the conclusions to be drawn are obvious. Do the constantly changing fashions of women’s clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualifies of inconstancy and instability? Men am too clever to let themselves be cheated by fashion designers. Do their unchanging styles of dress reflect basic qualifies of stability and reliability? That is for you to decide.
Designers and big stores always make money______.
选项
A、by mercilessly exploiting women workers in the clothing industry
B、because they are capable of predicting new fashions
C、by constantly changing the fashions in women’s clothing
D、because they attach great importance to quality in women’s clothing
答案
C
解析
设计者和商场通过不断改变服装式样来赚钱。根据第1段第2句“Because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion,they are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores.”可知:因为妇女一想到在公众面前穿着过时就发抖,所以她们总是被服装设计师和大商场无情地利用。衣服仅仅穿几次,就因为过时放置在一边。所以答案为C。其余陈述均与原文不符。
