When you e to think of it, only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear. Changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. Women who cannot afford to throw away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time altering the dresses they have. Skirts are lengthened or shortened, `necklines are lowered or raised, and so on.　　No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes any thing really important to society. Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, fort and durability. They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of disfort, as long as they look right.

Do the constantly changing fashions of women’s clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of inconstancy and instability? Men are too clever to let themselves be cheated by fashion designers. Do their unchanging styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stability and reliability? That is for you to decide .To the writer, the fact that women alter their oldfashioned dresses is seen as_________ .　　A) a waste of money　　B) waste of time C) an expression of taste　　本題問題是：女士們把過了時(shí)的衣服改來改去，在作者看來是浪費(fèi)金錢（A））；是（女士對服裝的）喜好（品味）的表現(xiàn)（C））；是（女士們）創(chuàng)造性的表現(xiàn)（D））；還是(B))所說的浪費(fèi)時(shí)間。由此可以推斷：①護(hù)理不充分是一個(gè)應(yīng)該解決的問題；②這個(gè)問題普遍存在，否則就沒有必要要求各地醫(yī)院行政部門和醫(yī)生效法這家醫(yī)院的做法。[ 201036 ]四級考試閱讀理解技巧　　—— 怎樣回答閱讀理解中的推理性問題　　關(guān)于推理性問題（Inference）　　推理性問題與細(xì)節(jié)性問題相似，也是對文章具體內(nèi)容的判斷。 every floor, every unit is a selfcontained organization.
