问题     Clothes play a critical part in the conclusions we reach by providing clues to who people are, who they are not, and who they would like to be. They tell us a good【B1】______about the wearer’s background, personality, status, mood, and【B2】______on life.
    People tend to agree on what certain types of clothes【B3】______. Newscasters, or the【B4】______who read the news on TV, are considered to be more【B5】______, honest, and competent when they are【B6】______conservatively. And college students who【B7】______themselves as taking an active role in their interpersonal relationships say they are【B8】______about the costumes they must wear to play these roles successfully.【B9】______, many of us can relate instances in【B10】______the clothing we wore changed the way we felt about ourselves and how we acted. Perhaps you have used clothing to gain confidence when you anticipated a【B11】______situation, such as a job interview, or a court appearance.
    In the workplace, men have long had well-defined precedents and role models for achieving success. It has been【B12】______for women. A good many women in the business world are uncertain about the appropriate mixture of "masculine" and "feminine"【B13】______they should convey by their professional clothing. The【B14】______of clothing alternatives to women has also been greater than that【B15】______for men. Male administrators tend to judge women more favorably for managerial【B16】______when the women display【B17】______"feminine grooming"—shorter hair, moderate use of make-up, and plain【B18】______clothing. As one male administrator confessed, "An【B19】______woman is definitely going to get a longer interview,【B20】______she won’t get a job."
【B3】
选项 A、infer
B、reveal
C、verify
D、mean
答案D
解析 根据下文列举的新闻广播员和大学生的着装以及本句句意“人们往往对某种服 装______达成共识”可知，mean“表示……的意思”最为确切，故D．mean为正确答案。infer“推 断，推论”往往与表示人的主语搭配使用；reveal“展现，揭示”，verify“证明”均不符合题意，故 排除。
