问题                      Freezing to Death for Beauty

Cars take (52) straight to their workplaces, which are heated well. The American diet is full of calories, so their (53) can afford to burn heat more quickly.
    Fewer layers of clothing give people the opportunity to stay (54) . Lots of Yale girls wear skirts (55) when it’s 10 degrees Centigrade(摄氏温度的) outside. Some of them at least wear boots, tights(裤袜), and leg-warmers(暖腿套). Some, however, really just go for(选 择) the look (56) the risk of health.

They are not exactly being fashionable when they (63) wear sporty (花哨的) shorts and shower slippers in the midst of winter. It’s not cute (喜人的).
    Of course, people have the freedom to look whatever (64) they want. I am just surprised that, given the vast difference between winter and summer temperatures in Connecticut, they can still (65) like they are partying on the beach in the middle of February.
