When you come to think of it, only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe (衣柜) packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.

C) by constantly changing the fashions in women's clothing
D) because they attach great importance to quality in women s clothing
注：考得是首段第二和第三句之間的關(guān)系
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 are lengthened or shortened; neck-lines are lowered or raised, and so on.
注：1.nothing/no more than = only
2.changing fashion 改變中的時尚
3.alter 改變；afford 承擔(dān)，支付
4.本段首句結(jié)論句，末句細節(jié)句
No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability (耐用). 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 right. 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.
注：1.首句為結(jié)論句，后面開始解釋
2.vital 重要的 vit 詞根，意思是“重要”
VIP = very important person 重要的人
3.put up with 忍受= stand
4.末句為細節(jié)句，速讀
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 qualities of inconstancy and instability? Men are too clever to let themselves be cheated by fashion designers. Do their unchanging styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stability and reliability? That is for you to decide.
37. To the writer, the fact that women alter their old-fashioned dresses is seen as _________.
A) a waste of money
B) a waste of time
C) an expression of taste
D) an expression of creativity
