2．Spring is coming，and it is time for those about to graduate to look for jobs．Competition is tough，so job seekers must carefully consider their personal choices．Whatever we are wearing，our family and friends may accept us，but the workplace may not．
A high school newspaper editor said it is unfair for companies to discourage visible tattoos （纹身）nose rings，or certain dress styles．It is true you can't judge a book by its cover，yet people do"cover"themselves in order to convey certain messages．What we wear，including tattoos and nose rings，is an expression of who we are．Just as people convey messages about themselves with their appearances?so do companies．Dress standards exist in the business world for a number of reasons，but the main concern is often about what customers accept．
Others may say how to dress is a matter of personal freedom，but for businesses it is more about whether to make or lose money．Most employers do care about the personal appearances of their employees （雇员），because those people represent the companies to their customers．
As a hiring manager I am paid to choose the people who would make the best impression on our customers．There are plenty of well-qualified candidates，so it is not wrong to reject someone who might disappoint my customers．Even though I am open-minded，I can't expect all our customers are．
There is nobody to blame but yourself if your set of choices does not match that of your preferred employer．No company should have to change to satisfy a candidate simply cause he or she is unwilling to respect its standards，as long as its standards are legal．

分析 本文讲述了对于那些穿着奇怪的人来说在找工作的时候，可能会遇见不公平的问题，作者对于这个现象是吃支持的态度的，认为对于公司来说应该雇佣能够代表公司形象的员工．
解答 32：C 细节题．由第二段第一句"A high school newspaper editor said it is unfair for companies to discourage visible tattoos（纹身） nose rings，or certain dress styles．"可知报纸编辑认为有纹身或者鼻环的人也应该被公平对待，故正确答案为C．
33：B 推断题．由第二段最后一句"Dress standards exist in the business world for a number of reasons，but the main concern is often about what customers accept．"可知在职场着装不只代表个人形象更代表公司形象，所以B项符合文意．A项，文中说招聘经理会因为着装而淘汰某些候选人，但并未提及候选人必须按照公司的着装喜好来穿戴，所以A项错误．C项，文章没有相关内容，所以C项错误．D项，由最后一段第二句"No company should have to change to satisfy a candidate simply because he or she is unwilling to respect its standards"可知D项错误．故正确答案为B．
34：C 主旨题．文章主要讲了公司职员的着装是否得体不只代表个人还代表公司，而求职者的着装也会影响招聘经理对其的印象，由此可知文章的主要内容为着装，四个选项中只有C项设计着装，所以"Appearances Matter"最合适，故正确答案为C．
35：B 细节题．由最后一段第一句"There is nobody to blame but yourself if your set of choices does not match that of your preferred employer．No company should have to change to satisfy a candidate simply because he or she is unwilling to respect its standards，as long as its standards are legal．"可知，作者认为求职者因为奇装异服而被公司拒绝是很正常的，因为很少会有公司会为求职者改变标准，求职者应该改变自己来符合公司的要求．由此可知作者对奇装异服的态度是负面的，故正确答案为B．
