Clothes play a critical role in the conclusions we reach about who people are, who they are not, and who they would like to be．They tell us a good deal about the wearer’s background, personality, status, mood and social outlook．?

Since clothes are such an important source of social information, we can use them to influence people’s impression of us．Our appearance takes on particular significance in the initial phases of interaction．An elderly middle-class man or woman may be lonely by a young adult who is dressed in an unconventional manner, regardless of the person’s education, background, or interests．?

People tend to agree on what certain types of clothes mean．Adolescent girls easily form opinions on the lifestyles of girls who wear certain outfits (穿着), including the number of boyfriends they have had and whether they smoke or drink．Newscasters and announcers on TV, are considered to be more convincing, honest, and competent when they are dressed conservatively．College students who view themselves as taking an active role in their interpersonal relationships say the costumes they wear change the way they feel about themselves and how they acted． Perhaps you have used clothing to gain confidence when you face a stressful situation, such as a job interview, or a court appearance．?

In the workplace, men have long had well-defined role models for achieving success． It has been otherwise for women．A good many women in the business world are uncertain about the appropriate mixture of "masculine"（男性）and "feminine"（女性）characteristics they should show to men． Male administrators tend to judge women more favorably for managerial positions when the women display less "feminine" ways such as shorter hair, mild use of make-up, and plain tailored clothing．As one male administrator admitted, "An attractive woman is definitely going to get a longer interview, but she won’t get a job．"?

3．Men’s professional clothing can best be described as “________”．?

A． conventional                                  B． individualistic?

C． out-of-date                                    D． changeless?

A． They must be dressed conservatively．

B． They don’t have a certain dressing style to follow．?
