9、on II Reading ComprehensionPart ADirections:Read the following four texts. Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1The English have a difficult and, generally speaking, dysfunctional (怪异的) relationship with clothes. Their
10、 main problem is that they have a desperate need for rules, and are unable to get along without them. This helps to explain why they have an international reputation for dressing in general very badly, but with specific areas of excellence, such as high-class mens suits, ceremonial costumes, and inn
11、ovative (革新的) street fashion. In other words, we English dress best when we are “in uniform”.You may be surprised that I am including “innovative street fashion” in the category of the uniform. Surely the parrot-haired punks (朋克摇滚乐迷) or the Victorian vampire goths are being original, not following r

We may not be individually eccentric, apart from the Queen, but we have a sort of collective eccentricity, and ye a

However, it is well known that most teenagers tend to take themselv
15、es a bit too seriously.The goths, in their scary black costumes, certainly look as if they are taking themselves seriously. But when I got into conversation with them, I discovered that they too had a sense of humor. I was once chatting to a goth in the full vampire costumewith a white face, deep purple lipstick, and black parr
