One day, many years ago, when I was working as a psychologist at a children's institution in England, an adolescent boy showed up in the waiting room. I went out there where he was  36up and down restlessly.

Tim wore a black raincoat that was   37   all the way up to his neck. His face was pale, and he stared at his feet while wringing （扭） his hands nervously. He had   38   his father as a baby, and had lived with his mother and grandfather ever since. But the year before he turned 13, his grandfather and mother were killed in a car accident.

I looked at Tim. He was very   39   and depressed （in low spirits）. He refused to talk to me. The first two times we   40  , Tim only sat hunched up （蜷縮） in the chair without saying a word. As he was about to leave after the second visit, I put my hand on his shoulder. He didn't ___41   back, but he didn't look at me either.

"Come back next week, if you like,” I said. I   42    a bit. Then I said, "I know it hurts.”

He came, and I ____43____we play chess. He nodded. After that we played chess every Wednesday afternoon―in   44   and without making any eye contact. It's not easy for me to 45   in chess, but I admit that I made sure Tim won once or twice.

Usually, he arrived earlier, took the chessboard and pieces and set them up before I even got a（n）  46  to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoyed my   47  . But why did he   48   look at me?

"Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his   49   with," I thought.

One afternoon, Tim took off his raincoat and put it on the back of the chair. While he was setting up the chess pieces, his face seemed more   50  and his motions more lively.

Some months later, I sat staring at Tim's head,   51   he was bent over the chessboard. I was thinking about how little we knew about the healing （治療） process.   52  , he looked up at me. "It's your   53  ," he said.

After that day, Tim started talking.

Maybe I gave Tim something, but I learned a lot from him. He showed me how one-without any words―can   54   out to another person. All it   55   is a hug, a shoulder to cry on, a friendly touch, a sympathetic nature―and an ear that listens.

Five years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day. “I was a clothes addict,” he jokes. “I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled.” Today David wears casual clothes—khaki pants and sports shirt—to the office. He hardly ever wears necktie. “I’m working harder than ever,” David says, “and I need to feel comfortable.”

More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work in the United States. The change from formal to casual office wear has been gradual. In the early 1990s, many companies allowed their employees to wear casual clothes on Friday(but only on Friday). This became known as “dress-down Friday” or “casual Friday.” “What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for employees has really become an everyday thing,” said business consultant Maisly Jones.

Why have so many companies started allowing their employees to wear casual clothes? One reason is that it’s easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code. “A lot of young people don’t want to dress up for work,” says the owner of a software company, “so it’s hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code.” Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. In a study conducted by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that they believe that casual dress improves employee morale(士氣). Only 4 percent of employers said that casual dress has a negative impact on productive. Supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual dress code helps them save money. “Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day,” one person said. “For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes.”

David Smith refers to himself as having been “a clothes addict” because       .

A. he often wore khaki pants and a sports shirt

B. he couldn’t stand a clean appearance

C. he wanted his clothes to look neat all the time

D. he didn’t want to spend much money on clothes

David Smith wears casual clothes now, because     .

A. they make him feel at ease when working

B. he cannot afford to buy expensive clothes

C. he looks handsome in casual clothes

D. he no longer works for any company

According to this passage, which of the following statements is FALSE?

A. Many employees don’t like a conservative dress code.

B. Comfortable clothes make employees more productive.

C. A casual clothes code is welcomed by young employees.

D. All the employers in the US are for casual office wear.

In this passage, the following advantages of casual office wear are mentioned EXCEPT       .

A. saving employees’ money

B. making employees more attractive

C. improving employees’ motivation

D. making employees happier
