I work in advertising and I like to keep up with current trends, mainly because I’m aware that we live in an image-obsessed world. However, when I first started my job, occasionally, I’d catch a glimpse of myself in the lifts and find myself thinking that I looked a total mess. Was I being held back by my choice of clothing? The short answer is yes, especially when clients are quick to judge you on your style rather than your work. But no one can be unique with their outfit every day. I mean that’s why uniforms were invented. So here’s what I did: I created my own uniform. To do this, I chose an appropriate outfit. Then I bought multiple items of the same style in different shades. Now, I never worry about what I’m wearing in the morning, even if I do get a bit tired of just wearing the same classic pieces. Overall, when it comes to work, you have to ask yourself, “Will looking smarter enhance my ability to do my job?” For some, this question may not be an issue at all, especially if you work remotely and rarely see your colleagues or clients face to face. But if your job involves interacting with other people, the answer to this is often yes. So rather than fighting the system, I think we should just do whatever helps us to achieve our goals at work. If that means playing it safe with your image, then let’s face it. It’s probably worth it.
Questions 12 to 15 are based on the passage you have just heard.

选项 A、Design their own uniform to appear unique.
B、Fight the ever-changing trends in fashion.
C、Do whatever is possible to look smart.
D、Wear classic pieces to impress their clients.

答案 C

解析 细节推断题。短文最后提到,我们应该做任何能帮助我们实现工作目标的事情,如果这意味着你要谨慎对待自己的形象,那我们就这样去做。由此可知,在一个关注形象的世界里,讲话者建议人们要想方设法让自己看起来整洁时尚。
