新托福写作真题范文(6)

Changing fashions are nothing more than the deliberate creation of waste. Mayb women squander vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. Women who can not afford to discard clothing in this way, waste hours of their time altering the dresses they have. Hem-lines are taken up or let down; waist-lines are taken in or let out; neck-lines are lowered or raised, and so on.

  No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion designers are really important to society. Fashion designers are rarelyconcerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability. They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the face that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, providing they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasn’t at some time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shivering in a flimsy dress on a wintry day, or delicately picking her way through deep snow in dainty shoes.

  When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion, the conclusions to be drawn are obvious. Do the constantly changing fashions of women’s clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of fickleness and instability? Men are too sensible to let themselves be bullied by fashion designers. Do their unchanging styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stability and reliability? That is for you decide.
