Ⅵ.任务型阅读
阅读并根据下面的短文，在表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
Before, pockets on our clothes were just to keep things inside. But now pockets are one of
this year's fashion trends.
Why are pockets this year's fashion trend? People usually don't need bags to take many things, like diaries and maps, with them. They seldom use money now. People only need phones, and maybe a key. Pockets are big enough to carry them.
More than practical(实用的) Pockets also get us to look at the rights of men and women. Hundreds of years ago, men enjoyed sewn-in(缝入的) pockets in their clothes. But women could only wear tied-on pockets on the outside. There were no tied-on pockets later. But it still made some people feel that pockets were something special for men.
Fashionable accessories(配饰) Even if we don't use pockets to carry things, pockets can make us feel fashionable. Deccan Herald newspaper said pockets now have all kinds of sizes. Designers also put many beautiful or special pictures on pockets.
Men get better pockets Pockets in women's jeans are usually 48% shallower, and 6.5% slimmer than men's jeans pockets. Only 40% of women's front pockets can keep a smartphone, and no more than half can keep a wallet.
