Question

【题目】A beach town in the US state of New Jersey recently passed a ban o trousers, jeans and shorts that hang less than 3 inches below the hips(臀部) for an excuse of being unfriendly to others’ eyes. But besides those low-hanging pants, here are some other items of popular travel clothing that may also need to be banned.

Thai Fisherman Pants: These lightweight cotton pants, wide in the waist and originally designed for Thai fishermen, are popular among men and women due to their comfort, ability to last long and relative ease of wearing. But the bad news is that wearing these pants isn’t the way to be respected in Bangkok.

“Wearing them to wander around the town is considered ’low class’ (even if we don’t say it out loudly),” wrote a local Bangkok woman, who called herself “Beebah” on line. “It’s better to dress ‘respectable’ if you want to be treated well. Even a T-shirt and shorts are better than fisherman pants and tight sleeveless shirts. If you really love them, wear them at home.”

T-shirts with slogans: Wearing T-shirts with slogans in the local language on them may seem cool to some young tourists who are swept up in the excitement of being in a foreign country for the first time. But be careful as they could be some meaningless words and make you look really stupid. What’s worse, some slogan T-shirts are political--you might get yourself into trouble without even knowing about it.

Croce(洞洞鞋): Comfortable and easy to slip on and off, Crocs have been go-to-beach shoes for many tourists. But we must admit that these holey plastic shoes are deadly ugly in every way. “Supporters would hold that the comfort of the Crocs is over their looks, but Babyclothes are comfortable, too. Your don’t feel the need to walk around in them, do you?” said a friend of mine.

【1】C

细节理解题。根据第二段中Thai Fisherman Pants: These lightweight cotton pants, wide in the waist and originally designed for Thai fishermen, are popular among men and women due to their comfort, ability to last long and relative ease of wearing. Thai Fisherman Pants之所以受欢迎是因为舒适、耐穿、轻便而广受欢迎。故选C。

【2】C

推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句But the bad news is that wearing these pants isn’t the way to be respected in Bangkok. 但坏消息是，在曼谷穿着渔夫裤无法令你显得“入乡随俗”，这样做只会让你成为千千万曼谷背包客大军中的一员。和第三段第一句“Wearing them to wander around the town is considered ’low class’ (even if we don’t say it out loudly),” “穿着人字拖和渔夫裤在城市中闲逛，会被认为是‘低阶层’(尽管我们不会大声说出来)。”由此推出Thai Fisherman Pants 不适合在公共场所穿。故选C。

【3】B

推理判断题。根据第四段中But be careful as they could be some meaningless words and make you look really stupid. What’s worse, some slogan T-shirts are political--you might get yourself into trouble without even knowing about it.它们可能只是一堆废话，令你看上去傻乎乎的。更糟糕的是，一些标语T恤带有政治色彩 — 你可能会身陷麻烦之中却全然不知。由此推知在你选择带标语的体恤衫时，首先你要弄清楚那些话的意思。故选B。

【4】D

推理判断题。根据最后一段中Supporters would hold that the comfort of the Crocs is over their looks, but Babyclothes are comfortable, too. Your don’t feel the need to walk around in them, do you?” said a friend of mine.尽管支持者们认为，相对于外观的丑陋，他们更在乎的是舒适度。但是，婴儿服也很舒适，你想穿着它们到处走吗？”可知作者对洞洞鞋持批评的态度。故选D。
