Part 1. Read the following passage and do the tasks that follow. (0.25/each)
In general, people in Britain and the US dress fairly informally. Many wear casual
clothes most of the time, not just when they are at home or on holiday. Men and women
wear jeans or cords (= corduroy trousers) with a shirt or T-shirt and a sweater to go
shopping, meet friends, go to a pub or bar, or take their children out. Older people are
more likely to dress more smartly, with women wearing a dress or skirt and blouse, and
men a shirt, jacket and trousers, when they go out. In summer younger people may wear
shorts (= short trousers/pants), but some people think they are only appropriate on the
beach. When the weather is hot some men take of their shirts, though some people do
not like this. Most people in Britain dress up, which means putting on smart clothes to
go to party or restaurant. Some restaurants will not allow people who are wearing jeans
or men without a tie.
New words:
+ informally: không cầu kỳ, đơn giản
+ trousers = pants
+ fairly:
khá là, tương đối là
