人们为什么要带帽子？文章告诉你三大原因——保护，交流和装饰。 
1、逻辑推理前后照应词义比较人们戴帽有保护、交流和装饰三个原因。开始时，人们戴帽是为了保护自己免遭季节气候的伤害。与前面的Protection(其名词形式)一致，与后文的protective一致，且后文竟出现了also provide protection。对后几句给予总结。defend防护, 辩护, 防卫；protect保护; 保卫；“保护……以免遭受危险或伤害等”；prevent 防止, 预防; 指“采取预先行动或用障碍物使不发生或停止”；hide 隐藏, 掩藏, 隐瞒, 掩饰。

6、词义比较常识运用 矿工、牛仔、救护队员的帽子显示出他们各自的工作，职责(occupation)，而非其经验(experience)、个性(personality)或是所受的教育(education)。
7、语句连贯 虽然帽子的重要用途是保护和交流作用，但许多人戴帽子是为了好看。表示让步关系，用though。
8、逻辑推理常识运用词义辨析 即便是警官和军人的帽子也是特别设计出来以达到改进增强穿戴者的外观。change 改变，变化，可能向好的方向，也可能向坏的方向变化；increase 增加, 增大，通常指在数量、体积程度上的提高；display 陈列，展览，显示；improve 改善，改进，通常指朝好的有益的方向发展。
