(10) :C一提起韩国,人们可能会想到很多东西,比如泡菜、化妆品和美女。实际上,韩国的手工制作衣服也很有名。在韩国,几天的时间就可以让你拥有一套手工制作的衣服,但是一定要留意尺寸,因为韩国的尺码通常偏小一点,特别是对西方人来说。即便是一件大号的T恤衫对美国人来说也可能太小了!韩国的衣服由各种丝绸以及其他材料制作而成。你也可以在韩国购买传统手工服装。
那些传统韩国服装有着很悠久的历史,这些历史经常出现在古代壁画或者墓穴中。韩服是韩国文化的最佳代表。今天,人们在正式场合仍然穿着韩服。韩服由两部分组成。上衣为长袖衬衫式样,称为“赤古里”。女性下装穿着高腰背心裙,而男性则穿着像口袋一样的裤子,也被称为“巴基”。
在节日或者特殊的日子,普通韩国百姓一般穿着白色服装,而上层阶级则以穿着鲜艳的衣服来表明自己的社会地位。韩国人也会佩戴珠宝或者发饰来让自己装束完整。传统韩服偏好用柔和的线条来遮掩身体的曲线,代表了韩国人对美和优雅的追求。不同的韩服设计代表了韩国的丰富文化。
细节题。题干意为“下列关于第一段的表述哪项是正确的?”根据第一段第三句“在韩国,几天的时间就可以让你拥有一套手工制作的衣服”可知在韩国买到一身手工制
作的衣服并不困难,故A项不正确。第一段第三句同时指出在韩国购买服装“一定要留意尺寸,因为韩国的尺码通常偏小一点,特别是对西方人来说,即便是一件大号的T恤衫对美国人来说也可能太小了”,由此可以推知西方人在韩国买衣服需要注意尺码,但并不是一定买不到合适的衣服,故B项不正确。D项的说法太过绝对,文中并没有提及所有的韩国衣服都是手工制作的。根据第一段最后两句可知,在韩国可以购买不同材质的服装,也可以购买传统服饰,故C为正确答案。
(11) :D细节题。题干意为“——不会出现在传统韩国女性服装中。”根据第二段第四句和第五句可知,Hanbok是韩服的总称,Jeogori(赤古里)是韩国男性和女性都会穿着的上装,Chima(高腰背心裙)是韩国女性穿着的下装,而Paji(巴基)则是韩国男性穿着的下装,不会出现在传统韩国女性服装中。故D为正确答案。
(12) :B推理题。题干意为“在韩国的节日或者特殊日子里,我们如何认出社会地位高的人?”根据第三段第一句“在节日或者特殊的日子,普通韩国百姓一般穿着白色服装,而上层阶级则以穿着鲜艳来表明自己的社会地位。”可以推知韩国人通过衣服颜色的不同来表明社会地位。故B为正确答案。
