A:with
B:against
C:above
D:under答案：B解析：上一个句子说北京人冬天要穿许多衣服以抵御寒冷。后一个句子是跟上一个句子作比较，因此要用little的比较级形式less。
把people填入后生成的句子同样是正确的，但是跟前一个句子放在一起时是不连贯的。这是因为在前一个句子中已经有了一个people0 them是一个代词，代词的作用就是照应，这也就是为什么语言中需要代词的原因。在这个句子中them就是照应前面的people。
body“身体”，指人的物质结构。
stay是系动词，跟形容词连用，说明某种状态的存在。四个选项都是形容词，但只有fashionable是最佳选择。如果穿得少是一种时尚的话，那么只穿几件衣服当然是很时髦的。填入bony , thin , hungry在语义上是不成立的，因为一种“瘦( bony/thin）的状态”是营养差、节食或疾病造成的，跟穿多少衣服没有关系。“保持饥饿状态”跟穿衣服也没有关系。
“Fewer layers of clothing give people the opportunity to stay fashionable.”是主题句。跟在主题句后面的句子是对这一主题的证明，这就需要有具体的事实。even所指的可能性是最不容易发生的。尽管如此，它还是发生了。因此even是最佳选择。
at the risk of health“有损健康的危险”。at the risk of是固定搭配。
prevent“防止”，与against连用。
该题所在句的意思是：通常来说，追求时髦的人大都是一些很瘦的人？ “丑”(ugly）和“矮个”(short）显然与题意不符。fat可以排除，因为它与后面的with little body fat相矛盾。因此只有skinny是正确选择。
四个选项都是有关不同温度的。由于本文讨论的主题是“为了漂亮冻得要死”，因此合适的选择是cold。
这四个动词后面都可以跟从句，但只有wondered可以跟疑问从句。
sacrifice health for beauty“为了漂亮而栖牲健康”。
wear和put on都有“穿”的意思。前者是状态动词；后者由于其动作能瞬间完成而不具备延续性，因此不可能表达某种状态。而这个句子表达的完全是一种状态，因此wear是合适的选择。
前面句子讲到男人脱掉几层衣服并不会突然就显得更好看，那么下面的句子应该进一步具体化，因此用 only是对的。填入该词后，句子说的是“当他们仅仅穿着花哨的短裤和洗澡用的拖鞋时在确切意义上来说并不会显得更时髦”。
way有多种意思，包括“道路，’、“途经”、“方向”、“方法”、“方式”、“样子”等。整个句子说的是：当然，人们有选择自己外表呈现什么样子的自由。
look like“看上去好像是”。整个句子说的是：我只是觉得惊讶，在冬夏温度相差很大的康涅狄格州，他们的穿着看上去仍然像是在二月中旬的海滩上聚会。 -

A:see
B:resemble
C:show
D:look答案：D解析：上一个句子说北京人冬天要穿许多衣服以抵御寒冷。后一个句子是跟上一个句子作比较，因此要用little的比较级形式less。
把people填入后生成的句子同样是正确的，但是跟前一个句子放在一起时是不连贯的。这是因为在前一个句子中已经有了一个people0 them是一个代词，代词的作用就是照应，这也就是为什么语言中需要代词的原因。在这个句子中them就是照应前面的people。
body“身体”，指人的物质结构。
stay是系动词，跟形容词连用，说明某种状态的存在。四个选项都是形容词，但只有fashionable是最佳选择。如果穿得少是一种时尚的话，那么只穿几件衣服当然是很时髦的。填入bony , thin , hungry在语义上是不成立的，因为一种“瘦( bony/thin）的状态”是营养差、节食或疾病造成的，跟穿多少衣服没有关系。“保持饥饿状态”跟穿衣服也没有关系。
“Fewer layers of clothing give people the opportunity to stay fashionable.”是主题句。跟在主题句后面的句子是对这一主题的证明，这就需要有具体的事实。even所指的可能性是最不容易发生的。尽管如此，它还是发生了。因此even是最佳选择。
at the risk of health“有损健康的危险”。at the risk of是固定搭配。
prevent“防止”，与against连用。
该题所在句的意思是：通常来说，追求时髦的人大都是一些很瘦的人？ “丑”(ugly）和“矮个”(short）显然与题意不符。fat可以排除，因为它与后面的with little body fat相矛盾。因此只有skinny是正确选择。
四个选项都是有关不同温度的。由于本文讨论的主题是“为了漂亮冻得要死”，因此合适的选择是cold。
这四个动词后面都可以跟从句，但只有wondered可以跟疑问从句。
sacrifice health for beauty“为了漂亮而栖牲健康”。
wear和put on都有“穿”的意思。前者是状态动词；后者由于其动作能瞬间完成而不具备延续性，因此不可能表达某种状态。而这个句子表达的完全是一种状态，因此wear是合适的选择。
前面句子讲到男人脱掉几层衣服并不会突然就显得更好看，那么下面的句子应该进一步具体化，因此用 only是对的。填入该词后，句子说的是“当他们仅仅穿着花哨的短裤和洗澡用的拖鞋时在确切意义上来说并不会显得更时髦”。
way有多种意思，包括“道路，’、“途经”、“方向”、“方法”、“方式”、“样子”等。整个句子说的是：当然，人们有选择自己外表呈现什么样子的自由。
look like“看上去好像是”。整个句子说的是：我只是觉得惊讶，在冬夏温度相差很大的康涅狄格州，他们的穿着看上去仍然像是在二月中旬的海滩上聚会。 -

B.Comfortable clothes make workers more productive

D.All the employers in the U.S. are for casual office wear答案：D解析：文章中只是说了穿便装很受年轻人的喜爱，并且显得年轻人很有活力。如果你要求员工必须穿正装的话，是很难雇佣到人的。文章中并没有提到说美国所有的员工都穿便服。故选D。 -
