M: What a lovely sunny day!
W: Yes, Mike. It’s lovely. By the way, your red coat really suits you. I’m sure you are very happy today.
M: So you really believe that clothes carry a kind of message for other people and that what we put on is in some way a reflection of what we feel?
W: Oh yes, very much so. Now people are beginning to take seriously the idea of a kind of psychology of clothing, to believe that there is not just individual taste in our clothes but also thinking behind what we wear, which is trying to express something we may not even be aware of ourselves.
M: But surely this has always been the case. We all dress up when we want to impress someone, such as for a job interview with a prospective employer. We tend to make an effort and put on something smart.
W: Tree, but that’s a conscious act. What I am talking about is more of a subconscious thing. Take for example the student who is away from home at college or university: if he tends to wrap himself up more than the others, this is because he is probably feeling homesick. Similarly, a general feeling of insecurity can sometimes take the form of over-dressing in warmer clothes than are necessary.
M: Can you give any other examples?
W: Yes. I think people who are sociable and outgoing tend to dress in an extroverted way, preferring brighter or more dazzling colors--yellows, bright reds, and so on. In the same way, that might be seen as parallel with the animal kingdom; aggressive clothes might indicate an aggressive personality or attitude to life. Think about the threat displays used by animals when they want to warn, off opponents.
M: Do you think the care over the way we actually wear our clothes has anything to tell1 us?
W: Yes, indeed. The length, for example, of a man’s trousers speaks volumes about his awareness of his own image. Or, if his trousers are very short or hanging loosely, this probably means he’s absorbed by other things.

A
解析
[听力原文]
What is the relationship between the man and the woman in the dialogue?
综合推断题。结合听力材料可知,女士很精通服装,男士则不断用引导话语向女士提问,由此推断,男士可能是记者而女士可能是服装设计师,故选A。
suit作及物动词,有“满足,适意;对…方便”之意,如:It suits me if you come to work at eight o’clock.如果你八点来上班我就满意了。也指“适合,适当”,如:That dress suits you.那套衣服很适合你。还有“供给…衣服,给…穿衣服”之意,如:The NCOs suited the recruits in green uniforms.军士给新兵们提供绿色的制服。
wrap作动词时常与up连用,表示“包,裹,卷”,如:The assistant wrapped the skirt up for her as quickly as possible.店员以最快的速度为她包好了裙子。而wrap up in意为“全神贯注手”,如:She is wrapped up in her studies.她埋头苦读。
warn off意为“告诫(某人)离开,告诫(某人)不得靠近”,如:I had been warned off visiting her while she was still unwell.我被告诫在她病好之前不要去看她。warn off强调的是二者的距离,以及不可接近性;与其形式相近的warn of/against强调的是警告、提醒。
speak volumes about/for意为“有力地说明,充分证明”,如:These facts speak volumes for her honesty.这些事实有力地证明了她为人诚实。
