For some people, suits are back. For some people—particularly in the boardrooms (董事会 议室) and comer offices of the biggest companies—they never went away.
The old saying "clothes make the man" is as much of a truth as ever. Today, as always, a well-made suit is not just a crucial business necessity; it also sends a subtle message that distinguishes the wearer as a person of taste and, in many cases, as someone with many zeroes in his yearly income.
What suits don’t do to the same extent they once did is to reveal the wearer’s background. In our age of equality in dressing, one doesn’t need to be a blue blood or an Ivy (名牌大学) graduate to occupy the comer office or know the name of the best tailors. The result is that suits have become less a uniform than an expression of individual style. If you’re conservative in outlook, the odds are you will dress that way too. Like to be a bit flashier? Most likely, so are your clothes.
What has also changed is the way men buy suits and the occasions on which they wear them. Around the turn of the last century, men of all backgrounds and careers wore ties and a suit pretty much everywhere. These days men are more selective about when and where to dress up or dress down. A board meeting? Wear a suit. A business lunch? The same. A relaxation at a hotel by a lake? Not if you don’t want to look like the hotel manager.
There are three key elements that go into choosing suits: price, style, and quality. Suits can be broken down into three basic styles: European (i. e. Italian), British and American. Many designers cross cultural lines. For tailoring options, the made-to-measure is the finest. Made-to- measure suits are created by highly skilled tailors to fit your every inch. They may ask you to try on five times before they complete and the starting prices mn upwards of $ 3, 000.
Which one of the following is NOT tree about made-to-measure suits according to the passage?
选项
A、Fashionable.
B、Fit the customer very well.
C、Time-consuming.
D、Costly.
答案
A
解析
本题考查细节。文章的末尾说“定做的西服很合身,很耗时 (要试穿五次),也很贵,价格在三千美元以上”。所以只能选A“很流行”。
