Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping 36 he needs something. His purpose is settled and decided in 37 . He knows what he wants, and his goal is to find it and　38　it. All men 39 walk into a shop and ask the shop assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock(库存), the deal can be done and 40 is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly any chat to everyone’s 41 .

For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop doesn’t have what he wants. In that 42 , the salesman tries to sell something else—he 43 the nearest to the article required. A good salesman brings out such a substitute(替代品) 44 , and he may say, “I know this jacket is not the style you want, sir, but would you like to try it for size? It 45 to be the color you mentioned.” Few men have 46 with this treatment, and the usual response is “This is the right color and may be the right size, but I shouldn’t be 47 my time and yours by trying it on.”

For a woman, buying clothes is always done in the 48 way. Her shopping is not often 49 on need. She has never fully decided what she wants, and she is only “having a look round”. She is always 50 to persuasion, willing to try on any number of things. Deep in her mind is the thought of finding something that 51 thinks suits her. Most women have an excellent sense of value and are always on the look-out for the unexpected 52 . Faced with a roomful dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail to another 53 selecting the dress she wants to try on. It is a tiresome process, but apparently a(n) 54 one. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting 55 .

When you buy a T-shirt, or a fur coat in a store, it often carries a label （标签），telling who made it or from which store it was bought . Indeed, some labels show the dress is famous and it is very expensive, so buyers secretly wish they might be carried forever. On the other hand, buyers who deal with the cheapest products would be pleased to do away with labels entirely.
However, there is another label more important than the one showing from which store the dress was bought. When a person buys a fur coat, or a jacket from a store, a label telling what the product is made of should be carried on it.
This label is required by law. Besides telling what the product on show is made of, the label should be in clear English and be where one can find it easily. The information on the label must be the truth.
The reason for this label is that most buyers today aren’t expert enough to know exactly what kind of fur or material they buy. The buyer must believe in the store that sells the products or in what the labels say.
56. The passage is mainly about_________.
A. some knowledge of clothing labels
B. some advice on how to get dressed
C. some advice on buying clothes
D. some knowledge of the quality of clothes
57. According to the passage, from a label we can know all of the following EXCEPT_________.
A. who made the clothes           B. where one bought the clothes
C. how much the clothes cost       D. what material the clothes are made of
58. The law requires that a product should carry a _________.
A. clean label    B. clear label     C. white label   D. secret label
59. The author probably thinks that_________.
A. all buyers want their clothes to wear labels forever
B. many buyers depend on labels when buying clothes
C. most stores don’t sell clothes with labels
D. most labels don’t tell buyers the truth
