答案与解析:
17.A主旨大意题。
文章首句Shoppingforclothesisnotthesameexperienceforamanasitisforawoman点题男人买衣服和女人买衣服是不同的经历。
然后下文分别阐述男人和女人买东西的不同。
故答案为A。
18.C语义理解题。
根据第1段第2、3、4句Amangoesshoppingbecauseheneedssomething.Hispurposeissettledanddecidedinadvance.Heknowswhathewants,andhisobjectiveistofinditandbuyit可知男人因为需要而买东西,他买东西的目的预先订下来,他知道他需要什么,而且他的目标是找到他需要的东西并买下来。
由此可推断只要东西合适,是他需要的,价格则是次要的事情。
故答案为C。
19.B推理判断题。
根据第3段首句Foraman,slightproblemsmaybeginwhentheshopdoesnothavewhathewants,ordoesnothaveexactlywhathewants.和末句Thisistherightcolorandmaybetherightsize,butIshouldbewastingmytimeandyoursbytryingiton可知虽然价格和颜色都合适,但如果不是他想要的东西,他认为“试穿是浪费时间”,因此可推知他不会买。
故答案为B。
20.C推理判断题。
根据第1段thedealcanbeandofteniscompletedinlessthanfiveminutes和第3段中awomanmayeasilyspendanhourgoingfromonerailtoanother可推知男人和女人买东西的明显不同是他们所用的时间不同。
本文阐述如何在参加面试的前几分钟时间里给人留下深刻的印象。
