Most of the time, people wear hats to protect themselves from harsh weather conditions. Hats are also worn to show politeness and as signs of social position. But nowadays, hats, especially women's hats, are much more than that. More exactly, hats have changed into fashion and style symbols by many movie stars. What's more, people now consider many different features (特点)when choosing even a simple hat. Many designers point out that, when choosing the right hat, it's important to consider the color of your skin as well as your hair, your height, and the shape of your face.

First of all, the color of the hat should match the color of your skin and hair. For instance, black hats should be avoided if you are dark skinned. If a purple hat is placed on top of red hair, one will look as attractive as a summer flower. Second, the height of the hat is also an important point. Tall women should not go for hats with tall crowns, just as short women should choose hats with upturned brims to give the look of height. Third, and most importantly, the shape of the face decides the kind of hat one should pick. A small, gentle hat that fits the head looks good on a small face. However, women with big, round faces should choose a different style.
As the saying goes, “Fine feathers make fine birds.” A good hat can not only help your dress but also support your features, so why not choose the best possible one next time you want to be in public?
1．What does the underlined word “harsh” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Good. B. Strange.

A. A big­faced woman who wears a small, nice hat.
B. A short red­haired woman who wears a purple hat.
C. A tall woman who wears a hat with a huge upturned brim.
D. A small dark­skinned woman who wears a black hat with a tall crown.
答案与解析　B　文章其次段列举了帽子与肤色、脸型、发色、发型的搭配。可用排解法做本题。B项正确。
3．What does the last paragraph suggest?
A. Hats are worn on the head to keep warm.
B. Hats can help you look better in public.
C. Hats are not as important as character
D. Hats can make you look much taller.
答案与解析　B　“好马配好鞍”，最终一段就是要表达这个意思。B项正确。
4. What is the best title for the article?
A. How to Show Your Social Position

Dear Lingling，
How time flies!

We haven't seen each other for nearly a month. I think you are well and happy. I have learnt a lot during the summer vacation. I'm now at my uncle's. My aunt feeds (饲养) a lot of chickens. They are lovely. I feed them every day.
At first I didn't want to go into the chicken house, you know. It smells very bad. But every time I see the chickens, I like them. Little by little, I like to feed them. As I enter the house, the chickens look at me, like saying，“Welcome！” I say hello to them, too. Then I put the food in front of them and they begin to eat. I like watching them eating. Sometimes I help my aunt collect eggs. It's very interesting! Several times I dream (梦) them in my dreams.
My uncle and aunt get up early and go to bed late. They take care of the chickens. How hard­working! We are worried when some of the chickens are ill. We needn't go to the doctor's because my uncle knows a little about illnesses. My uncle says he is going to build another chicken house and there will be more chickens.
Until now, I don't want to go back. I'll return just before school begins. I want to know what you are doing now. Please write me back as soon as possible.
Best wishes，
Catherine
