Question

【題目】China is home to the invention of silk and has a long tradition of producing fine materials for clothing. Not all clothing in ancient or contemporary（ 當(dāng)代的） China is made of silk, however. In fact, silk was only available to the wealthy classes（階級） for much of China's history. Until the introduction of cotton during the Ming Dynasty, from the 14th to the 17th century, the poorer classes wore rough clothing made from fibers (纖維).

In ancient China, the tunic（無袖長袍）was particularly popular . Called hanfu（漢服）, both men and women could be seen wearing tunics made of different materials. Women's tunics were long and loose（寬松的）, extending all the way down to their feet and often cinched with a belt or rope to get tighter（緊）. Men's tunics were shorter, usually only extending down to their knees. During the winter, both men and women would wear cotton jackets for warmth. In the winter, men would also wear pants (褲子) or ankle-length skirts into their clothes to keep warm and protect their legs against the cold winter conditions.

Contemporary Chinese clothing is now made of many of the same materials as contemporary clothing found in other countries. Much of the traditional Chinese clothing produced now is made of cotton and silk, but generally contemporary Chinese clothing also contains synthetic (合成的) fibers in with the cotton and silk, such as nylon (尼龍). In addition, linen (亞麻布) is now commonly used in contemporary Chinese clothing, especially during the summer months because it is light and breathable.

A. 懸掛 B. 插入 C. 裝飾 D. 拴，綁

【4】What can we know from the text?

A. Linen is only used to make Chinese summer clothing.

【3】D考查詞義猜測題。根據(jù)句意可知婦女的漢服可知婦女的漢服長且寬松，一直到腳，常常用繩子或帶子系緊。故選D。
