Well-tailored suit,hat just at the right angle-a businessman,of course,and undoubtedly English.Why English?Well,it's raining,isn't it?Only Englishman would carry his treasured umbrella,still perfectly rolled,in the rain. I once read of a journalist who went into an extremely expensive department store dressed in her shabby clothes.She was eyed with suspicion as she examined the goods on 18
display.When she finally decided on a small purchase,she said she had forgotten to bring enough money with her and whether she could pay by cheque.The assistant politely told her that cheques were not accepted for goods of 2 or under.The next day she went back,dressed to kill,smelling of expensive perfume.She selected an even cheaper article,told the same story and her cheque was accepted without question.It only goes to show how easily we are impressed by clothes.I wonder if Stone Age Man selected his woman by the quality of the bearskin she was wearing.

Part 2:Questions (31-35)are based on passage 2.10 points Passage 2 Marriage is still a popular institution in the United States,but divorce is becoming almost as "popular".Most American people get married,but at the present time,fifty percent of American marriages end up in divorce.However,four out of five divorced people do not stay single.They get married a second time to new partners.Sociologists tell us that in this century,most American people will marry three or four times in one life time.Alvin Roffler,an American sociologist,calls this new social form serial marriages.In his book Future Shock,Toffler gives many reasons for this change in American marriage.In modern society,people's lives don't stay the same for very long.Americans frequently change their jobs,their homes,and their circle of friends.So the person who was a good husband or wife ten years ago is sometimes not as good ten years later.After some years of marriage,a husband or wife can feel that their lives have become very different,and they don't share the same interests any more.For this reason Foffler says,people in the twenty-first century will not plan to marry only one person for an entire lifetime.They will plan to stay married to one person for perhaps five or ten years,and then marry another.Most Americans will expect to have a "marriage career"that includes three or four marriages.

• Part 2: Questions (31-35) are based on passage 2.10 points Passage 2 Marriage is still a popular institution in the United States, but divorce is becoming almost as "popular". Most American people get married , but at the present time , fifty percent of American marriages end up in divorce. However, four out of five divorced people do not stay single. They get married a second time to new partners. Sociologists tell us that in this century , most American people will marry three or four times in one life time. Alvin Roffler , an American sociologist , calls this new social form serial marriages. In his book Fut ure Shock , Toffler gives many reasons for this change in American marriage. In modern society , people' s lives don' t stay the same for very long. Americans frequently change their jobs, their homes, and their circle of friends. So the person who was a good husband or wife ten years ago is sometimes not as good ten years later. After some years of marriage , a husband or wife can feel that their lives have become very different , and they don't share the sam巳interests any more. For this reason Foffler says, people in the twenty-first century will not plan to marry only one person for an entire lifetime.
