14.For most people,the word"fashion (时尚)"means"clothes".But people may ask the question,"What clothes are in fashion?"And they use the word"fashionable"in the same way:"She was wearing a fashionable coat.His shirt was really a fashionable color."
But of course there are fashions in many things,not only in clothes.There are fashions in holidays,in restaurants,in films and books.There are even fashions in school subjects,jobs…and in languages.
Fashions change as time goes.If you look at pictures of people or things from the past,you will see that fashions have always changed.An English house of 1750was different from one of 1650.A fashionable man in 1780looked very different from his grandson in 1860.
Today fashions change very quickly.Some of this is natural.We hear about things much more quickly than in the past.Newspapers,radios,telephones and television send information from one country to another in a few hours.
New fashions mean that people will buy new things,so you see there is money in fashion.

分析 文章大意:对于大多数人来说,"时尚"的意思是"衣服",但是人们可能会问,"什么样的服装时尚?"他们用"流行的"表达同样的意思:"她穿着一件时髦的外套,他的衬衫真是一种时髦的颜色."当然时尚也存在于其他很多东西,不仅仅是在衣服上.还有在节日里的时尚,在餐馆里,在电影和书籍中,甚至还有在学校的课程,工作…和语言的时尚.时尚随着时间的推移而改变.如果你看看过去的人和事的图片,你会发现时尚一直在改变.1650年的英语屋和1750的就不一样.1780年,一个时髦的人看起来跟他1860年的孙子很不同.今天的时尚变化很快,有些是自然的.我们听到的东西要比过去快得多,报纸、收音机、电话和电视在几小时内就能把信息从一个国家传送到另一个国家.新的时尚意味着人们会买新的东西,所以你会看到时尚带来的收益.

A serious problem for today's society is who should be responsible(有责任的) for our elderly and how to improve their lives.It is not only a financial problem but also a question of the system we want for our society.I would like to suggest several possible ways to this problem.
First,employers(雇主) should take the responsibility for their retired(退休的) employees.To make this possible,1% of profits(利润) should be left for this purpose.But when a company must take life-long responsibility for its employees,it may suffer from a commercial disadvantage because of higher employee costs.
Another way of solving the problem is to return the responsibility to the individual(个人).This means each person must save during his working years to pay for his years of retirement.This does not seem a very fair model since some people find that it's difficult for them to pay for their daily life without trying to earn extra to cover their retirement years.This means the government might have to step in to care for the poor.
In addition,the government could take responsibility for the care of the elderly.The government could provide more money through government taxes to increase the level of pensions(养老金).What's more,some institutions(社会福利机构) should be created for senior citizens,which can help provide a comfortable life for them.Unluckily,as the present situation in our country shows,this is not a truly practical answer.The government doesn't have enough money to care for the elderly,particularly when it is busy trying to care for the young.
One further solution is that the government or social organizations set up some working places especially for the elderly where they are independent.
In short,all these measures have advantages and disadvantages.Therefore,we are expecting to combine(结合)these measures so that we can provide the care we hope to give to our elderly generations.
