III- Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer (5 pts)
Many British people don’t think about clothes very much. They just like to be comfortable.
When they go out to enjoy themselves, they can wear almost anything. At theaters,
cinemas and concerts you can put on what you like from elegant suits and dresses to
jeans and sweaters. Anything goes, as long as you look clean and tidy.
But in Britain, as well as the United States, men in offices usually wear suits and ties, and
women wear dresses or skirts (not trousers). Doctors, lawyers and business people wear
quite formal clothes. And in some hotels and restaurants men have to wear ties and
women wear smart dresses.
In many years, Americans are more relaxed than British people, but they are more careful
with their clothes. At home or on holiday, most Americans wear informal or sporty clothes.
But when they go out in the evening, they like to look elegant. In good hotels and
restaurants, men have to wear jackets and ties, and women wear pretty clothes and smart
hairstyles.
It is difficult to say exactly what people wear informal or formal in Britain and the United
States because everyone is different. If you are not sure what to wear, watch what other
people do and do the same. You’ll feel more relaxed if you don’t look too different from
everyone else.
