In nearly all civilizations, at nearly all times in history, men have dressed differently from women. But it has not always been a simple matter of men wearing trousers while women wear skirts. In Scotland and parts of the Far East, men as well as women wore skirts. In Turkey and China, and among Eskimos, both men and women wore trousers. But in ancient Greece men who wore trousers were thought to be little better than savages.
We think of women as wearing brighter clothes than men. Yet in some historical periods, it was men who wore the more colorful and elaborate costumes.
Some anthropologists believe that the clothing men wear is directly related to the position they hold in society. In many civilizations, kings and chiefs wore special clothing and headgear to show their authority. Rich, important men in the 18th century wore special clothing, often elaborately made and difficult to keep clean. Since poor men could not afford to wear this kind of clothing, it became a symbol of wealth.
Even today, men wear clothing that symbolizes their positions in life more often than women do. Men sometimes wear jewelry marked with the insignia of organizations to which they belong. Soldiers, delivery men, and service station workers wear uniforms. Doctors and dentists usually wear white coats.
Women wear clothes to make them appear more attractive. As the fashion in beauty for women changes, clothing for women has changed rapidly.
Men and women think alike about some things. But they don’t always agree about clothing.
Questions 19 to 21 are based on the passage you have just heard.
19. Which of the following statements does the article try to make you believe?
20. Why do women’ s clothes change?
21. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
选项
A、Some men enjoy wearing special kinds of clothing.
B、Soldiers do not allow delivery men to wear uniforms.
C、All doctors and dentists wear coats at home.
D、In ancient Greece, men wearing dresses were thought to be savages.
答案
A
解析
细节辨认题。短文中提到kings and chiefs wore special clothing和Rich,important men in the 18th century wore special clothing,由此可知有些男人穿特殊的服装是为了显示出他们的社会地位。所以A正确。选项B、C在短文中并无相应的描述,选项D不符合文中表达。故选A。
