阅读下列短文,从每题所给的
ABCD
四个选项中,选出最佳选项?/p>
A
While
wearing
T-shirts,
jeans
and
a
baseball
cap
are
classic
American
style
choices;
the
preppy(
学院风格
)
look
is
what
sophisticated(
高雅时髦?/p>
)
British
youths
wear.
But
when
it
comes to the best-
dressed nation, neither the US nor the UK tops CNN’s list. So which country
has the best fashion sense? Take a look.
Italy
Italy is a nation that values outward appearance. Elegance(
高雅
) is in Italian blood and most
Italians would give up comfort in order to look graceful(
优雅?/p>
). They dress well even for simple
trips to the grocery store.
Both
men
and
women
have
a
good
understanding
of
style,
dressing
themselves
up
with
well-groomed(
讲究?/p>
) hair and a smart pair of shoes. It is no wonder that so many of the best
fashion designers are Italian!
Sweden
Retail(
零售
)
giant
H
&
M
continues
to
spread
affordable
Swedish
style
around
the
world.
What
has
been
called
the
“Swedish
fashion
miracle?nbsp;
actually
comes
from
the
?nbsp;
less
is
more?nbsp;
philosophy(
信条
).
The
Swedes
tend
to
adopt
a
practical
approach
to
what
they
wear,
but
they
don’t
lack
creativity.
France
The
French
have
a
chic(
别致?/p>
)
air
about
them.
They
appear
casual
and
elegant
without
being over-dressed or under-dressed, and always seem to give off confidence in their style choices.
“The
laissez
-faire(
自由放任?/p>
)
approach
to
fashion
is
something
many
people
love
?/p>
and
the
looks they wear are something we all want to
emulate
on a dail
y basis,?nbsp;said The Huffington Post.
