题目解答
答案
我们来逐题分析并解答这个问题。
题目:
Why does the Association offer clothes for women?
选项:
A. Because they get too many clothes from women.
B. Because some women cannot afford to dress professionally for a job interview.
C. Because dressing well is the most important part in getting a job.
D. Because some women feels less confident in their own clothes.
解题思路:
我们要找出 Women's Business Association 提供衣服给女性的原因。我们可以从文章中找出关键信息。
文章开头提到:
> "A local organization is helping women who do not have the resources to dress well for their job interviews."
这句话的意思是:“一个本地组织正在帮助那些没有资源为面试穿得体面的女性。”
也就是说,这些女性因为经济困难,无法负担得体的面试服装。
接下来,文中提到:
> "The women who use this service need to show that they are financially in need and that they are actively looking for work."
这句话进一步说明,这些女性需要证明自己经济上有困难,并且正在积极找工作。
此外,Beverly Sills 的例子也说明了她因为经济原因无法购买新衣服,而这些衣服帮助她看起来更专业、更有信心。
分析选项:
-
A. Because they get too many clothes from women.
这个选项是错误的。虽然文章提到衣服是捐赠的,但提供衣服的原因不是因为“太多”,而是为了帮助有需要的女性。 -
B. Because some women cannot afford to dress professionally for a job interview.
这个选项是正确的。文章明确说明,这些女性因为经济原因无法负担得体的面试服装,所以组织提供帮助。 -
C. Because dressing well is the most important part in getting a job.
这个选项是错误的。文章没有说“着装是获得工作的最重要部分”,只是强调了着装对面试有帮助。 -
D. Because some women feels less confident in their own clothes.
这个选项虽然部分正确(文中提到 Beverly Sills 因为新衣服变得更自信),但不是组织提供衣服的主要原因。组织的主要目的是帮助经济困难的女性,而不是仅仅为了提升信心。
最终答案:
$\boxed{B}$
解析
本题考查对文章细节信息的理解,解题的关键在于从文中找出协会为女性提供衣服的原因。
- 文章开头明确指出 “A local organization is helping women who do not have the resources to dress well for their job interviews.”,这表明该协会是在帮助那些没有资源为面试穿得体面的女性,也就是这些女性在经济上无法负担专业的面试着装。
- 接着提到 “The women who use this service need to show that they are financially in need and that they are actively looking for work.”,进一步强调了使用该服务的女性需要证明自己经济上有困难且在积极找工作。
- 文中 Beverly Sills 的例子也体现了她因经济原因无法购买新衣服,而协会提供的衣服让她在面试中更有优势。
- 对各选项进行分析:
- A选项 “Because they get too many clothes from women.”,文章虽提及衣服是捐赠的,但提供衣服的目的并非因为捐赠的衣服过多,而是为了帮助有需要的女性,所以A选项错误。
- B选项 “Because some women cannot afford to dress professionally for a job interview.”,与文章中所表达的协会帮助经济困难女性获得专业面试着装的意思相符,所以B选项正确。
- C选项 “Because dressing well is the most important part in getting a job.”,文章只是强调着装对面试有帮助,并未提及着装是获得工作的最重要部分,所以C选项错误。
- D选项 “Because some women feels less confident in their own clothes.”,虽然文中提到 Beverly Sills 因新衣服变得更自信,但这不是协会提供衣服的主要原因,主要原因是帮助经济困难的女性,所以D选项错误。
