考题 Text 2 Pretty in pink:adult women do not remember being so obsessed with the colour,yet it is pervasive in our young girls'lives.It is not that pink is intrinsically bad,but it is such a tiny slice of the rainbow and,though it may celebrate girlhood in one way,it also repeatedly and firmly fuses girls'identity to appearance.Then it presents that connection,even among twoyearolds,between girls as not only innocent but as evidence of innocence.Looking around,I despaired at the singular lack of imagination about girls'lives and interests.Girls'attraction to pink may seem unavoidable,somehow encoded in their DNA,but according to Jo Paoletti,an associate professor of American Studies,it is not.Children were not colourcoded at all until the early 20th century:in the era before domestic washing machines all babies wore white as a practical matter,since the only way of getting clothes clean was to boil them.What's more,both boys and girls wore what were thought of as genderneutral dresses.When nursery colours were introduced,pink was actually considered the more masculine colour,a pastel version of red,which was associated with strength.Blue,with its intimations of the Virgin Mary,constancy and faithfulness,symbolized femininity.It was not until the mid1980s,when amplifying age and sex differences became a dominant children's marketing strategy,that pink fully came into its own,when it began to seem inherently attractive to girls,part of what defined them as female,at least for the first few critical years.I had not realized how profoundly marketing trends dictated our perception of what is natural to kids,including our core beliefs about their psychological development.Take the toddler.I assumed that phase was something experts developed after years of research into children's behavior:wrong.Turns out,according to Daniel Cook,a historian of childhood consumerism,it was popularized as a marketing trick by clothing manufacturers in the 1930s.Trade publications counselled department stores that,in order to increase sales,they should create a“third stepping stone”between infant wear and older kids'clothes.It was only after“toddler”became a common shoppers'term that it evolved into a broadly accepted developmental stage.Splitting kids,or adults,into evertinier categories has proved a surefire way to boost profits.And one of the easiest ways to segment a market is to magnify gender differences—or invent them where they did not previously exist. According to Paragraph 2,which of the following is true of colours?A.Colours are encoded in girls'DNA. B.Blue used to be regarded as the colour for girls. C.Pink used to be a neutral colour in symbolizing genders. D.White is preferred by babies.

考题 Text 3 While there are rival contenders,the title of the world's first department store belongs,perhaps,to Harding,Howell&Co's Grand Fashionable Magazine at 89 Pall Mall in St James's,London.Opened in 1796,this handsome Georgian shop was divided into four departments,offering furs and fans,haberdashery,jewellery and clocks,and millinery,or hats.Harding,Howell&Co was focused on the needs and desires of fashionable women.Here,at last women were free to browse and shop,safely and decorously,away from home and from the company of men.These,for the main part,were newly affiuent middle class women,their good fortune-and the department store itself-nurtured and shaped by the Industrial Revolution.This was transforming life in London and the length and breadth of Britain at a dizzying pace on the back of energetic free trade,fecund invention,steam and sail,and a seemingly inexhaustible supply of expendable cheap labour.It is no coincidence that,from the mid 19th Century,the department store adopted the look and feel of the way we have known it for more than 150 years with the opening,by Queen Victoria and Prince Albert,of the Great Exhibition in 1851.This was held in the Crystal Palace,a truly revolutionary structure,designed by Joseph Paxton and located in Hyde Park,not far from Harrods,which,from 1905,became Europe's biggest department store.The threat of the shopping mall coincided with a global acceptance of the Internet,personal computers and smart phones-the rise of online shopping.Against the odds the department store has survived.People may choose to buy online,yet they also like to see what's on offer in person.Department stores present a good snapshot of current trends in fashion,design,household goods and gadgets.As a result,forward-looking department stores have re-imagined themselves as retail theatres.Intriguingly,internet-savvy customers in Britain still enjoy shopping in the fabric departments of John Lewis department stores much as their predecessors did 150 years ago.Think Crystal Palace 1851 with 21st Century marketing and communications technology and you can see just why the department store remains hard to beat,an endearing and enduring cultural and retail fixture on our busiest city streets and squares. According to the text,Harding,Howell&Co offers merchandises except_____A.men's clothes B.women's hats C.magazines D.diamond rings
