三、任务型阅读。（每小题4分，共20分）
之后，老师带来了一篇关于非洲大陆传统服装的科普短文，介绍了当地人对色彩的文化解读，以及服装与日常生活、重大场合的关联。
Clothing is a language. It tells us about individual(独立的) people: their personality, their age, their place in society and so on.
The continent(大陆) of Africa has a long history and a rich culture, and this is shown in traditional dress. You often find three colours—red, gold and green in the clothing. The first colour stands for the blood of millions of people who lived as slaves(奴隶); the second stands for the rich resources of the African earth; and the third stands for the grasslands of home.
Each pattern(图案) on the clothing also has a meaning. A common pattern in the form of a cross means “unity” while another pattern, a rectangular box, is for “strength”.
Before certain events, people are very careful with what to wear. It wouldn’t be good to wear the wrong clothing, or to wear clothes in the wrong way. For example, in Ghana, a woman should wear her waistband differently according to different events.
Traditional dress also reflects everyday life. Africa is known for the hot sun and wide temperature changes, so the clothes are usually designed to be loose, which is comfortable for daily life.
Although many people wear Western clothes, particularly in the big cities in Africa, traditional dress is very highly valued. This is because it has deep cultural meanings.
