Competition is tough, so job seekers must carefully consider their personal choices. Whatever we are wearing, our family and friends may accept us, but the workplace may not. A high school newspaper editor said it is unfair for panies to discourage visible tattoos (紋身)，nose rings, or certain dress styles. It is true you can39。t judge a book by its cover, yet people do cover themselves in order to convey certain messages. What we wear, including tattoos and nose rings, is an expression of who we are. Just as people convey messages about themselves with their appearances, so do panies. Dress standards exist in the business world for a number of reasons, but the main concern is often about what customers accept. Others may say how to dress is a matter of personal freedom, but for businesses it is more about whether to make or lose money. Most employers do care about the personal appearances of their employees, because those people represent the panies to their customers. As a hiring manager I am paid to choose the people who would make the best impression on our customers. There are plenty of wellqualified candidates, so it is not wrong to reject someone who might disappoint my customers. Even though I am openminded, I can39。t expect all our customers are. There is nobody to blame but yourself if your set of choices does not match that of your preferred employer. No pany should have to change to satisfy a candidate simply because he or she is unwilling to respect its standards, as long as its standards are legal.（1）Which of the following is the newspaper editor39。s opinion according to Paragraph 2? A.People39。s appearances can messages about themselves.B.Customers39。 choices influence dress standards in panies.C.Candidates with tattoos or nose rings should be fairly treated.D.Strange dress styles should not be encouraged in the workplace.（2）What can be inferred from the text? A.Candidates have to wear what panies prefer for an interview.B.Hiring managers make the best impression on their candidates.C.Companies sometimes have to change to respect their candidates.D.What to wear is not a matter of personal choice for panies.（3）Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A.Personal Choices MatterB.Appearances MatterC.Employees MatterD.Hiring Managers Matter（4）The author39。s attitude towards strange dress styles in the workplace may best be described . A.negativeB.positiveC.enthusiasticD.sympathetic【答案】 （1）C（2）D（3）B（4）A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文，介紹了公司職員的著裝是否得體不只代表個(gè)人還代表公司，而求職者的著裝也會(huì)影響招聘經(jīng)理對(duì)其的印象。 （1）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的 A high school newspaper editor said it is unfair for panies to discourage visible tattoos(紋身) nose rings, or certain dress styles.可知報(bào)紙編輯認(rèn)為有紋身或者鼻環(huán)的人也應(yīng)該被公平對(duì)待，故選C。 （2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的 Dress standards exist in the business world for a number of reasons, but the main concern is often about what customers accept. 可知在職場(chǎng)著裝不只代表個(gè)人形象更代表公
