[A]Fashion behaves as a movement, and on this basis it is different from custom which, by comparison, is static. This is due to the fact that fashion is based fundamentally on differentiation and emulation. In a class society, the upper classes or so-called social elites are not able to differentiate themselves by fixed symbols or badges. Hence the more external features of their life and behavior are likely to be imitated by classes immediately subjacent to them, who, in turn, are imitated by groups immediately below them in the social structure.
[B]Nevertheless, the movement of fashion is an important form of collective behavior. First, it should be noted that the fashion movement is a genuine expressive movement. It does not have a conscious goal which people are trying to reach through collective action, as is true in the case of the specific social movements. Nor does it represent the release of excitement and tension generated in a dancing crowd situation.
[C]It does not build up a social organization: it does not build up morale and require an ideology: it has no personnel or functionaries: it does not develop a division of labor among its participants with each being assigned a given status: it does not construct a set of symbols, myths, values, philosophy, or set of practices, and in this sense it does not form a culture: and finally, it does not develop a set of loyalties or form a we-consciousness. The participants are not recruited through agitation. People participate in the fashion movement voluntarily and in response to the interesting and powerful kind of control which fashion imposes on them.
[D]As a movement, fashion shows little resemblance to any of the other movements which we have considered. While it occurs spontaneously and moves along in characteristic cycle, it does not depend upon the mechanisms of which we have spoken.
[E]This process gives to fashion a vertical descent. However, the elite class finds that it is no longer distinguishable, by reason of the imitation made by others, and hence it adopts new differentiating criteria, only to be imitated very soon.
[F]While fashion is thought of usually in relation to clothing, it is important to realize that it covers a much wider domain. It is to be found in manners, and in the arts, literature, and philosophy, and may even reach into certain areas of science. In fact, it may operate in any field of group life. Its operation requires a class society, for in its essential character it does not occur either in a homogeneous society or in a caste society.
[G]It is expressive, however, of certain fundamental impulses and tendencies, such as an inclination toward novel experience, a desire of distinction, and an urge to conform fashion is important especially, in providing a means for the expression of developing tastes and dispositions: this feature establishes it as a form of expressive behavior.

答案
A
解析
由上面的分析可知,A、E、F是一组,既然确定了F项为第一段,那么下面的二、三段很可能就是A、E项了。先看已经给定的D项首句As a movement,fashion shows little resemblance to…再看A项首句Fashion behaves as a movement…可见A、D项联系紧密,且A项在D项之前。而E项如果作为第二段的话,开头This process在第一段没有指代内容。因此推断第二段是A项。A项大意是:在阶级社会里,流行时尚是以区别和模仿为基础的。这解释了第一段(F项)最后一句提到的“时尚需要以阶级社会作为背景”。因此,本题正确答案是A项。
