What seems strange, however, is that the standard adopted for women is the opposite of the one for men.

23、Take a look at the way your clothes button. Mens clothes tend to button from the right, and womens from the left. Considering most of the worlds populationmen and womenare right-handed, the mens standard would appear to make more sense for women. So why do womens clothes button from the left?History

24、 really seems to matter here. Buttons first appeared only on the clothes of the rich in the 17th century, when rich women were dressed by servants. For the mostly right-handed servants, having womens shirts button from the left would be easier. On the other hand, having mens shirts button from the r

Besides, some women might have found it socially awkward to appear in public wearing shirts that buttoned from the right, since anyone who noticed that would believe they were wearing mens shirts.9. What is surprising about the standard of the clothing industry?A. It has been follo

28、wed by the industry for over 400 years.B. It is Afferent for mens clothing and womens.C. It works better with men than with women.D. It fails to consider righthanded people.10. What do we know about the rich men in the 17th century?A. They tended to wear clothes without buttonsB. They were intereste

29、d in historical mattersC. They were mostly dressed by servants.D. They drew their swords from the left.11. Womens clothes still button from the left today because .A. adopting mens style is improper for womenB. manufacturers should follow standardsC. modern women dress themselvesD. customs are hard

A【解析】组织结构题.通观整篇文章可以看出,作在开始提到一个现象男女衣服的标准 相反,然后分析这种现象产生的历史原因,最后告诉我们现在这是这样的原因.由此判断选 A 项.DWhen I looked at the grade on my math paper my

31、jaw (下巴) almost dropped to the ground: a big “65” in bright red ink. I had never received such a terrible grade before.I was so ashamed that when I got home that afternoon I lied to my dad.

32、d never lie about her grade, so he didnt doubt the unusual delay (延迟) of my report.A month later, Dad casually (随意地) asked me again about the report at the dinner table.
