阅读理解Five years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day. “I was a clothes addict,” jokes. “I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled.” Today David wears casual clothes---khaki pants and sports shirt---to the office. He hardly ever wears necktie. “I’m working harder than ever,” David says, “and I need to feel fortable.”
More and more panies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work in the United States. The change from formal to casual office wear has been gradual. In the early 1990s, many panies allowed their employees to wear casual clothes on Friday (but only on Friday). This became known as “dress-down Friday” or “casual Friday.” “What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for employees has really bee an everyday thing,” said business consultant Maisly Jones.
Why have so many panies started allowing their employees to wear casual clothes? One reason is that it’s easier for a pany to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code. “A lot of young people don’t want to dress up for work,” says the owner of a software pany, “so it’s hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code.” Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing fortable clothes. In a study conducted by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that they believe that casual dress improves employee morale. Only 4 percent of employers said that casual dress has a negative impact on productive. Supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual dress code helps them save money. “Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day,” one person said. “For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes.”1.David Smith refers to himself as having been “a clothes addict” because_______A.he often wore khaki pants and a sports shirtB.he couldn’t stand a clean appearanceC.he wanted his clothes to look neat all the timeD.he didn’t want to spend much money on clothes2.David Smith wears casual clothes now, because________A.they make him feel at ease when workingB.he cannot afford to buy expensive clothesC.he looks handsome in casual clothesD.he no longer works for any pany3.According to this passage, which of the following statements is FALSE?A.Many employees don’t like a conservative dress codeB.Comfortable clothes make employees more productiveC.A casual clothes code is weled by young employeesD.All the employers in the U.S are for casual office wear4.In this passage, the following advantages of casual office wear are mentioned EXCEPT_______A.saving employees’ moneyB.making employees more attractiveC.improving employees’ motivationD.making employees happier
