4.For most people,the word"fashion (時尚)"means"clothes".But people may ask the question,"What clothes are in fashion?"And they use the word"fashionable"in the same way:
"She was wearing a fashionable coat.His shirt was really a fashionable colour."
But of course there are fashions in many things,not only in clothes.There are fashions in holidays,in restaurants,in films and books.There are even fashions in school subjects,jobs…and in languages.
Fashions change as time goes.If you look at pictures of people or things from the past,you will see that fashions have always changed.An English house of 1750was different from one of 1650.A fashionable man in 1780looked very different from his grandson in 1860.
Today fashions change very quickly.Some of this is natural.We hear about things much more quickly than in the past.Newspapers,radios,telephones and television send information from one country to another in a few hours.
New fashions mean that people will buy new things,so you see there is money in fashion.
46.Most people think that"fashion"meansD.
A.subjects          B.holidays         C.books           D.clothes
47.ByB we can see that fashions change as time goes.
A.finding a job                        B.looking at pictures
C.eating in a restaurant                  D.wearing a fashionable coat
48.In the 5th paragraph the writer mentionsB kinds of ways to send information.
A.three            B.four            C.five              D.six
49."There is money in fashion"meansC
A.people like fashion and money         B.fashionable things are expensive
C.one can make money through fashion    D.a(chǎn) fashionable man makes much money
50.The passage is mainly aboutA.
A.the changes of fashions               B.the kinds of colours
C.the money in fashion                 D.the differences between houses.

分析 對于大多數(shù)人來說,"時尚"的意思是"衣服",但是人們可能會問,"什么樣的服裝時尚?"他們用"流行的"表達同樣的意思:"她穿著一件時髦的外套,他的襯衫真是一種時髦的顏色."當然時尚也存在于其他很多東西,不僅僅是在衣服上.還有在節(jié)日里的時尚,在餐館里,在電影和書籍中,甚至還有在學校的課程,工作…和語言的時尚.時尚隨著時間的推移而改變.如果你看看過去的人和事的圖片,你會發(fā)現(xiàn)時尚一直在改變.1650年的英語屋和1750的就不一樣.1780年,一個時髦的人看起來跟他1860年的孫子很不同.今天的時尚變化很快,有些是自然的.我們聽到的東西要比過去快得多,報紙、收音機、電話和電視在幾小時內(nèi)就能把信息從一個國家傳送到另一個國家.新的時尚意味著人們會買新的東西,所以你會看到時尚帶來的收益.

解答 46.答案D 細節(jié)理解題 由文中 For most people,the word"fashion"means"clothes"可知 對于大多數(shù)人來說,"時尚"的意思是"衣服",故選D
47.答案B 細節(jié)理解題 由文中 If you look at pictures of people or things from the past,you will see that fashions have always changed可知 如果你看看過去的人和事的圖片,你會發(fā)現(xiàn)時尚一直在改變,故選B
48.答案B 細節(jié)理解題 由文中 Newspapers,radios,telephones and television send information from one country to another in a few hours可知 報紙、收音機、電話和電視在幾小時內(nèi)就能把信息從一個國家傳送到另一個國家,四種方式,故選B
49.答案C 推理判斷題 由文中 New fashions mean that people will buy new things,so you see there is money in fashion可知 新的時尚意味著人們會買新的東西,所以你會看到時尚…,因為前一句說時尚意味著人們會買東西,所以時尚可以帶來收益,故選C
50.答案A 文章主旨題 由文中If you look at pictures of people or things from the past,you will see that fashions have always changed.An English house of 1750was different from one of 1650.A fashionable man in 1780looked very different from his grandson in 1860 可知 如果你看看過去的人和事的圖片,你會發(fā)現(xiàn)時尚一直在改變.1650年的英語屋和1750的就不一樣.1780年,一個時髦的人看起來跟他1860年的孫子很不同,本文主要在說時尚是在不斷變化的,故選A
