问题 Wholly aside from aesthetic and moral considerations, fashion is an
economic absurdity, and there is little to be said in its favor.
Nevertheless. we Call appreciate the wisdom in Gina Lombrero’s belief【S1】________
the enormous stress which women lay on everything pertaining with【S2】________
clothes and the art of personal adornment is connected with the tendency
to crystallize sentiment into an object. A woman symbolizes every
important event in her life by a special dress；and a jewel or a beautiful
gown means to a woman that an official decoration means to a man. 【S3】________
The temptation of dress is the last step in the ceremony to the novice【S4】________
has to submit before entering the cloister. The memory of the gown which
she might have worn was the strongest temptation that assailed St. Catherine
before she took her solemn vows—a gown, embroidering with gold and【S5】________
stars, like that her sisters had worn, which her grandchildren would have【S6】________
gazed with eyes filled with wonder and admiration…【S7】________
If a woman’s clothes cost the family and society a little time,
money and activity, they allow woman, independent in lies and【S8】________
calumnies, to triumph and come to the fore outside of man’s world and
competition. They allow woman to satisfy with her desire to be the first【S9】________
in the most varied fields by giving her the illusion that she is the first,
and at the same time enable her rival to have the same illusion. Clothes【S10】________
absorb some of woman’s activity which might otherwise be diverted to
more or less worth—while ends；they give woman real satisfaction. [br] 【S3】

选项

答案 that—what

解析关系代词误用。固定句型A is to B what C is to D表示“A对B而言正如C对D一样”，故将that改为what。本句的含义是“女人通常用一件特别的服装象征她生活中的每一个重要的事件；而且珠宝或漂亮的礼服对于一个女人的意义就如同正式的装饰对于一个男人的意义一样。”
