People wear clothes to protect their bodies from the cold or the burning sun, from insect bites and injuries, and from the unwelcome eyes of strangers. However, what people wear can also convey a message about who they are and their role in society.
For example, visit nearly any country in the world and you will notice that young people everywhere are wearing fashionable blue jeans. They wear them not for work, but for social occasions such as parties and concerts. The jeans are somewhat of an index of how these young people view themselves : I’m modern and stylish. I’m different from the traditional older generation.
【B1】______They can convey allegiance to schools and sports teams, advertise places or products, serve as wearable travel souvenirs, and commemorate important occasions. These messages clearly tell others, This is what I want you to know about me.
【B2】______It says that the person wants to impress others with his or her professional status. A fitted jacket and matching trousers constitute a man’s suit, while a fitted jacket and matching skirt constitute a woman’s suit. A collared shirt and a necktie are integral parts of the man’s outfit, while stockings and high-heeled shoes complete the woman’s.
【B3】______Military personnel are easy to identify by their uniforms. The same is true for civil emergency personnel like police officers and firefighters. In certain contexts, special clothing is worn to differentiate not only the occupation of people, but also their authority. For example, the chef’s tall white hat indicates his job and that he’s in charge in the restaurant’s kitchen.
【B4】______ For example, Scotsmen were distinctive tartans to show their clan affiliation, just as school uniforms identify children as students at a certain school.
【B5】______In Western societies, women—and often men—wear wedding rings on their left hands. Other cultures use different symbols. Hindu women, for example, wear a red powder in their hair after they marry.
Clothing serves many functions beyond just protecting our bodies. Clothing can tell a lot about the people who wear it.
