One of the most exciting and attractive fields of work today is the fashion industry. Some of the most well-known people in this industry are the fashion designers with unbelievable financial (金融的) Kingdoms. But most of the clothes that you wear have been designed by people that the world has never heard of. Although these unknown fashion designers will never make a very large amount of money as their famous workmates, most still would not think of changing their careers. They are doing what they love.

If you spend hours looking through fashion magazines and like making your own clothes, a career as a fashion designer might be right for you. You do not have to go to design school to become a fashion designer, but many people who want a career in this field do. One of the most famous places to study is the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. It is located in the heart of the “garment” district on Eighth Avenue, also known as Fashion Avenue.

Becoming a fashion designer is not just a matter of classroom education. Students know that they cannot just leave school and start designing on their own. Many think that they need at least four years’ experience working for someone else after they graduate. The best schools encourage students to work closely with the fashion industry while they are still studying.

You need ambition (抱負) and hard work to get a career in fashion. Students often work 12 hours a day. They are encouraged to have realistic ambitions and not to expect success overnight, if ever. Success means finding a job in the fashion industry and more years of hard work.

What can we learn from the first paragraph?

A. Some famous fashion designers can make a lot of money.

B. Most of the clothes are designed by famous designers.

C. Most fashion designers don’t like their own jobs.

D. Unknown fashion designers can earn a large amount of money.

If you get a cellphone call, your sleeve(袖子) will soon be able to answer it. If you want to know how far you’ve run, your trousers will be able to tell you. Can’t decide what to wear? Wish your clothes were smart enough to decide for you? A new computer science technology may be able to help your clothing to do just that.

Mark Jones, a computer scientist, says, "We view electronic textiles (電子紡織品) as, sort of, where computing meets the fabric (編織品)."

This high-tech marriage is bringing up the wearable computers, like trousers that can interpret movement and let a computer know your every move.

A loom (織布機) helps make the wires and fabric together. Then special equipment in the fabric can measure the speed. Signals are then sent from the trousers to a computer to show the process.

Tom Martin also says, "E-textiles are a way for us to build wearable computers that look like normal clothing and can fit in fully with the environment."

Researchers also hope wearable computers will help save lives. "We will be able to tell what activity a person is doing. That sort of information is highly valuable when we’re trying to monitor someone with a long-term illness such as heart disease," Jones says. Monitoring your every step is something that clever clothing can do a little easier. Researchers plan on developing more smart clothes to integrate computers into shirts, hats and gloves.

1.What does the underlined word "marriage" refer to in the passage?

A．The special equipment in the fabric used to measure the speed of our movement.

B．The unity（結(jié)合）of fabric and computing materials to make smart clothes.

C．Wearable computers which fit in with the environment.

D．The influence of electronics and computer science technology.

2.How will smart clothes be able to know the wearer’s every movement?

A．There are the wires and fabric together.

B．There are signals in the smart clothes.

C．The computer built into them will control their every movement.

D．The clothing will have special equipment fixed into the fabric.

3.The reason that people need smart clothes is that __________.

A．people are too lazy to decide what to wear

B．scientists want to prove their intelligence

C．smart clothes can provide information about the wearer’s health

D．smart clothes are as cheap as normal clothes

4.What is the best title for the passage?
