TOPIC: Why People Wear Clothes. The Variety of Trousers, Skirts and Blouses.

I. Read and translate the following text:

People throughout history and across different cultures have always worn clothes for similar reasons.

Clothes are worn for protection and also for modesty. Sometimes they are worn merely for decoration, while other times they are worn because they are comfortable.

One of the most important reasons that people wear clothes is for protection. Clothes also protect people from heat. In some desert areas people wear loose robes. These robes keep the dry, hot air away from the body, which prevents the loss of body moisture. Raincoats and boots and other foul-weather clothes protect people from unusually bad weather. Hard hats protect workers who must work around construction. Bulletproof vests are worn by police to protect them while they work. The space suits that the astronauts wear in outer space are designed to guard them from space hazards, such as weightlessness and cold. Going for a walk in the woods, people dress to protect themselves from insects, thorns and sore feet.

Clothes can give the wearer psychological protection. This happens when people believe or think that items of clothing have special or magical properties.

People think they ward off evil, heal, or bring good luck to their wearers.

People of all cultures take an interest in adornment. When people adorn themselves they use things to decorate or beautify their bodies. Adornment can also be used to tell many things about its wearer. It can show wealth, rank, status, occupation, family ties and power.

Trousers are an item of clothing worn on the lower part of the body from the waist to the ankles, covering both legs separately. Trousers have been the standard lower-body clothing item for males since the 16th century; by the late 20th century, they had become prevalent for females as well.

Cropped trousers. The trouser leg stops halfway between the knee and the ankle. Cropped trousers only suit those with long legs. The line cuts the leg horizontally and therefore shortens it.

Wide legged trousers. The bottom of the leg is usually one and a half times the width of the top. Wide-legged trousers are ideal for tall women, short women should avoid them, because the cut can broaden the figure and make legs look stumpy.

High-waisted trousers. The waistband sits just above your navel - and sometimes even higher. High-waisted trousers are wonderful on tall or petite women with hourglass figures but they should be avoided by pear shapes as they accentuate the hips and the waist.

The most standard type of skirt is the gathered skirt, with fabric that is scrunched together and “gathered” at the waist line. There two possible styles; those with a straight cut and gathered flared skirts that flare out at the hem. There are also skirts with a similar design that have tucks around the waistline instead of gathering.

Flared skirts are skirts that flare out from the waist towards the hemline. When choosing a length that is right for you, remember to check how well the skirt balances with your height and build. Generally speaking, short lengths give a cute impression while longer lengths look more composed and sophisticated. Skirts with designs that you think might be a little too sweet for you may still suit your style well if they are longer in length. There are also tiered skirts, straight skirts, pleated skirts, draped skirts.
