Five years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day. “I was a clothes addict,” he jokes. “I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled.” Today David wears casual clothes-khaki pants and sports shirt-to the office. He hardly ever wears a necktie. “I’m working harder than ever,” David says, “and I need to feel comfortable.”
More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work in the United States. The change from formal to casual office wear has been gradual. In the early 1990s, many companies allowed their employees to wear casual clothes on Friday (but only on Friday). This became known as “dress-down Friday” or “casual Friday”. “What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for employees has really become an everyday thing.” said business consultant Maisly Jones.
Why have so many companies started allowing their employees to wear casual clothes? One reason is that it’s easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code. “A lot of young people don’t want to dress up for work,” says the owner of a software company, “so it’s hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code.” Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. In a study conducted by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that they believe that casual dress improves employee morale. Only 4 percent of employers said that casual dress has a negative impact on productivity. Supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual dress code helps them save money. “Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day,” one person said. “For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes.”

47. The reason why David Smith wears casual clothes now is that _______.
A. they make him feel at ease when working

A. All the employers in the U. S. show their approval for casual office wear.

The mystery had reached its climax(高潮):The man had undoubtedly been murdered.However, no one present knew who could have killed such a kind person. It was therefore time to call in the great detective, who gave one searching glance at the corpse(尸体), and then used a microscope.
“Aha!” he jumped as he picked a hair off the dead man’s coat.“The mystery is a mystery no longer.We have only to find the man who lost this hair, and the criminal will be in our hands.” The chain of logic was complete, and the detective started to do his search.
For four days and four nights he moved unobserved through the streets of New York, scanning closely every face, looking for a man who had lost a hair.On the fifth day he discovered a man pretending to be a tourist, and his head was enveloped in a cap reaching below his ears.The man was about to board the Gloritania, and the detective lost no time in following him on board.
“Arrest him!” shouted the detective, and then, drawing himself to his full height, he took out the hair.“This is his,” said the great detective, “and it proves his guilt.”
“Remove his hat,” ordered the ship’s captain firmly.
It was discovered that the man had no hair.
“Aha!” said the great detective without a moment’s hesitation. “He has committed not one murder, but about one million!”
60.Before the great detective arrived, it seemed that ________.
