In department stores and closets all over the world, they are waiting. Their outward appearance seems rather appealing because they come in a variety of styles, textures, and colors. But they are ultimately the biggest deception that exists in the fashion industry today. What are they? They are high heels—a woman’s enemy (whether she knows it or not).
High heel shoes are the downfall of modern society. Fashion myths have led women to believe that they are more beautiful or sophisticated for wearing heels, but in reality, heels succeed in posing short as well as long term hardships. Women should fight the high heel industry by refusing to wear or purchase high heel shoes in order to save the world from unnecessary physical and psychological suffering.
For the sake of fairness, it must be noted that there is a positive side to high heels. First, heels are excellent for aerating lawns. Anyone who has ever worn heels on grass knows what I am talking about. A simple trip around the yard in a pair of
those babies
eliminates all need to call for a lawn care specialist, and provides the perfect-sized holes to give any lawn oxygen without all those messy chunks of dirt lying around.
Second, heels are quite functional for defense against oncoming enemies, who can easily be scared away by threatening them with a pair of these sharp, deadly fashion accessories.
Regardless of such practical uses for heels, the fact remains that wearing high heels is harmful to one’s physical health. Talk to any podiatrist, and you will hear that the majority of their business comes from high-heel-wearing women. High heels are known to cause problems such as deformed feet and torn toenails. The risk of severe back problems and twisted or broken ankles is three times higher for a flat shoe wearer. Wearing heels also creates the threat of getting a heel caught in a sidewalk crack or a sewer-grate and being thrown to the ground—possibly breaking a nose, back, or neck. And of course, after wearing heels for a day, any woman knows she can look forward to a night of pain as she tries to comfort her swollen, aching feet.
The author uses the expression "those babies" (Line 6. Para.3) to refer high heels________.
选项
A、to show their fragile characteristics
B、to indicate their feminine features
C、to show women’s affection for them
D、to emphasize their small size
答案
C
解析
本题关键词是those babies,问题是:作者使用“那些宝贝”的目的是什么?作者目的题一般会涉及主题,所以定位全文。在第一和第二段中,作者指出高跟鞋颇具吸引力(rather appealing),女性都相信穿高跟鞋能使她们更漂亮、气质更高雅(more beautiful or sophisticated for wearing heels),由此可看出女性对高跟鞋的钟爱,所以作者将高跟鞋比作baby,目的只是为了表现女性对高跟鞋的钟爱,由此可见,选项C与作者上下文体现的态度一致,为正确选项。而选项A、B、D在原文中均未提及,属于无中生有。第五段:穿高跟鞋对身体健康有害。
