　　參考答案

　　1.[C]觀點態度題。根據第l段的incredibly，impossible，unreasonably，impracticably等詞，可以看出作者對時裝雜志上的模特兒及他們的發式和服飾持不認可的態度。

　　2.[A]細節判斷題。第l段最后兩個問句表明了作者認為衣服應該是comfortably durable，而不應該一味追求new或者flesh，A正確。

　　3.[B]推理判斷題。本題考查復合句的理解。第2段首句提到“時尚一年一年地變化，因此很多人可以賺大把的錢”，后面再具體說明商人是如何通過時尚 賺錢的。第2句表明，時尚業能使人們覺得需要某種東西，也就是選項B所說的。選項A在文中并無提及，選項C和D的陳述與本段的倒數第2句不符。

　　4.[C]推理判斷題。第5段第2句中的logical表明作者認為科學家和歷史學家的研究結果是可信的，有 道理的，因此C為正確選項。雖然下面所舉的兩個例子看起來很有趣，但是作者重點不是為了說明這些研究結果的有趣程度，而是為了說明時尚的起因都是符合邏輯的。
