33、o who people are, who they are not, and who they would like to be. They tell us a good deal about the wearer s background, personality, status, mood, and social outlook.Since clothes are such an important source of social information, we can use them to manipulate people s impression of us. Our appe

34、arance assumes particular significance in the initial phases of interaction that is likely to occur. An elderly middle-class man or woman may be alienated by a young adult who is dressed in an unconventional manner, regardless of the person s education, background, or interests.People tend to agree

35、on what certain types of clothes mean. Adolescent girls can easily agree on the lifestyles of girls who wear certain outfits, including the number of boyfriends they likely have had and whether they smoke or drink. Newscasters, or the announcers who read the news on TV, are considered to be more con

36、vincing, honest, and competent when they are dressed conservatively. And college students who view themselves as taking an active role in their interpersonal relationships say they are concerned about the costumes they must wear to play these roles successfully. Moreover, many of us can relate insta

37、nces in which 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 stressful situation, such as a job interview, or a court appearance.In the workplace, men have long had well defined precedents and ro

38、le models for achieving success. It has been otherwise for women. A good many women in the business world are uncertain about the appropriate mixture of “masculine“ and “feminine“ attributes they should convey by their professional clothing. The variety of clothing alternatives to women has also bee

39、n greater than that available for men. Male administrators tend to judge women more favorably for managerial positions when the women display less “feminine“ grooming-shorter hair, moderate use of make-up, and plain tailored clothing. As one male administrator confessed. “An attractive woman is defi

40、nitely going to get a longer interview, but she won, t get a job.“82 According to the passage, the way we dress _.（A）provides clues for people who are critical of us（B） has a direct influence on the way people regard us（C） indicates our likes and dislikes in choosing a career（D）is of particular impo

41、rtance when we get on in age83 From the third paragraph of the passage, we Can conclude that young adults tend to believe that certain types of clothing can _.（A）change people s conservative attitudes towards their lifestyles（B） help young people make friends with the opposite sex（C） help them achie

42、ve success in their interpersonal relationships（D）make them competitive in the job market84 According to the passage, many career women find themselves in difficult situations because_.（A）the variety of professional clothing is too wide for them to choose（B） women are generally thought to be only go

43、od at being fashion models（C） men are more favorably judged for managerial positions（D）they are not sure to what extent they should display their feminine qualities through clothing85 According to the text, which of the following is not correct?（A）clothes reveals a lot about persons condition.（B） di

44、fferent people may wear different styles of clothes.（C） persons dressing can leave others deep first-sight impression.（D）with the development of society, men s clothes are as alternative as women s85 One of the most vivid of the mythical episodes added to the history of the Celtic captain, Arthur, i

45、s that deed by which he was disclosed to be the predestined king. His father, Uther Pendragon, had died, and the powerful lords of the kingdom were all grasping for the crown. By Merlin s advice and counsel it was finally decided that the supernatural powers should be left to determine the troubled

46、issue. Before the greatest church in London a stone had appeared in which a sword was buried and letters of gold were to be seen on the stone around the sword to the effect that the one who could draw the blade should be recognized as king. Many tried in vain. Then, at last, this unknown youth, Arth

47、ur, who had been reared secretly under that guardianship of Merlin, rode up to the church and, ignorant of the magic of his deed, pulled out the sword.This striking symbol of the hero s election and sacred power is derived from the prehistoric period at the close of the Age of Stone. Swords were not

48、 made until after the discovery of bronze and iron: before that time there were only spears and arrows and axes. And so, who is the one who frees the metal from the stone? The culture hero: the magic smith, who released the worlds from the Stone Age and taught mankind the art of smelting bronze and

49、iron from the ore. The hero who cart draw the iron sword from the stone is not necessarily a great warrior, but always a powerful magician, a lord over spiritual and material things: a seer comparable, in terms of the Iron Age, to modern inventor, chemist or engineer, who creates new weapons for his people. And just as today we live in awe and some fear of the man of science so
