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.
The writer would be less critical if fashion designers placed mere stress on the ______ of clothing.
选项
A、cost
B、appearance
C、comfort
D、suitability
答案
C
解析
从第3段第2句得出答案。Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth,comfort and durability.服装设计师很少考虑重要的事情,比如暖和,舒适,耐用等。他们只对外表感兴趣,他们利用女人只顾看起来不错,不管是否舒适的心理。本题意思是如果服装设计师们多注意衣服的舒适度,作者就不会这样挑剔他们了。
