I will be the first to say that I am not materialistic. My friends regard me as a goody-go

I will be the first to say that I am not materialistic. My friends regard me as a goody-goody; my parents say I am conservative and modest when it comes to clothes. None of my skirts or shorts end above my knees.
So why, why did I feel so invited? My family and I were in Target, and there it was, waiting. A skirt, specifically designed not to cover anything. It looked like something that one of those modern schoolgirls would wear.
I checked my purse. The skirt cost $10. I had the money. I could buy it. I imagined walking into school and my friends’ jaws (下巴) dropping. Guys would ask me out, and I would be happy. I could buy it, no, — I should buy it.
I showed my mother. She was surprised but said it was my decision. My sister looked on enviously.
I went into the dressing room to try it on. So sure was I that this skirt would change me, somehow make me not what I am but what I wished to be. I slid my jeans off and put it on. I looked in the mirror. There I was — a terrible girl in a Superman T-shirt and sneakers. My glasses fogged up as I started to cry. www..com
The skirt did not change me. Though it fit well and might make me look good in the eyes of today’s world, it was not me. I am not a girl who wears cool clothes to fit in.
I took the thing off and slid back into the ­comfort of modesty. My mom knocked on the door. “Emily, are you okay?”
I wiped away my tears. “I’m fine.” I looked in the ­mirror again and saw a slim girl with funny ­glasses. I saw myself.

(答案→)B 解析： 本文叙述了一个女孩子到商店买衣服的事情，她选中了一件和她原来的风格完全不一样的裙子，最后还是发现这样的决定也许会是错误的。【小题1】B 推理题。根据文章第2段2,3行A skirt, specifically designed not to cover anything. It looked like something that one of those modern schoolgirls would wear. 可知作者认为这个裙子不能盖住任何东西，也就是认为这个裙子太短了！故B正确。【小题2】.A 推理题。根据文章第三段I imagined walking into school and my friends’ jaws (下巴) dropping. Guys would ask me out, and I would be happy.可知如果我穿了这样的衣服，我的同学们可能惊讶的下巴都要掉了。说明他们会非常震惊。故A正确。【小题3】B 推理题。根据Guys would ask me out, and I would be happy. I could buy it, no, — I should buy it. 可知如果我穿了这件衣服，男孩子胡请我出去，那样我会很开心，我能够买！不是应该把它买下来。可知作者下定决心要把这件衣服买下来。故B正确。【小题4】C 推理题。根据文章倒数第3段The skirt did not change me. Though it fit well and might make me look good in the eyes of today’s world, it was not me. I am not a girl who wears cool clothes to fit in. 可知这件裙子并不能改变我的本质，而且穿上去和我的整个风格不搭配。这个改变也许是错误的。故C正确。
