Xiaoyan,
I thought you’d like to know what has happened to your report about improving the website.
Last week I had a meeting with the designers. I gave them a copy of your report and I told them that we needed to have the website redesigned.
-- I’ve had the first page simplified.
-- I have asked them to make the icons large.
-- The colours are now different too.
-- There are more functions, as you suggested, so that customers will be able to transfer funds to an account in another bank.
I’m going to make a presentation about these changes at the Paris, conference and would like to talk to you about that. There are some things I can do myself, but I would like your help with some technical aspects. I must get some slides made too, and would like your opinion about them.
Have you got time for a coffee on either Wednesday or Thursday morning？

So why do manufacturers keep on designing and producing VCRs that are awkward to use if the problems are so obvious？ First, the problems are not obvious to technically minded designers with years of experience and trained to understand how appliances work. Secondly, designers tend to add one or two features at a time to each model, whereas you or I face all a machine’s features at once. Thirdly, although finding problems in a finished product is easy, it is too late by then to do anything about the design. Finally, if manufacturers can get away with selling products that are difficult to use, it is not worth the effort of any one of them to make improvements.
Some manufacturers say they concentrate on proving a wide range of features rather than on making the machines easy to use. But that gives rise to the question, "Why can't you have features that are easy to use？" The answer is you can.
Good design practice is a mixture of specific procedures and general principles. For a start, designers should build an original model of the machine and try it out on typical members of the public -- not on colleagues in the development laboratory. Simple public trials would quickly reveal many design mistakes. In an ideal world, there would be some ways of controlling quality such as that the VCR must be redesigned repeatedly until, say, 90 per cent of users can work 90 per cent of the features correctly 90 per cent of the time.
According to the passage, before a VCR is sold on the market its original model should be tried out ______.
A．among ordinary consumers who are not technically minded
B．among people who are technically minded
C．among experienced technicians and potential users
D．among people who are in charge of public relations

This illusion is created by changing fashions. Over the year, the great majority of men have successfully resisted all attempts to make them change their style. of dress. The same cannot be said for women. Each year a few so-called top designers in Paris or London lay down the law and women in the whole world over rush to obey. The decrees of the designers are unpredictable and dictatorial. This year, they decide in their arbitrary fashion: skirts will be short and waists will be high; zips are in and buttons are out. Next year the law is reversed and far from taking exception, no one is even mildly surprised.
If women are mercilessly exploited year after year, they have only themselves to blame. Because they shudder at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion, they are annually black-mailed by the designers and the big stores. Clothes, which have been worn, only a few times have to he discarded because of the dictates of fashion. When you come to think of it, only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.
Changing fashions are nothing more than the deliberate creation of waste. Many women squander vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. Women, who cannot afford to discard clothing in this way, waste hours of their time altering the dresses they have. Hem-limes are taken up or let down; waist-lines are taken in or let out; neck-lines are lowered or raised, and so on.
No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability. They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, providing they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasn't at some time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shivering in a flimsy dress on a wintry day, or delicately picking her way through deep snow in dainty shoes.
When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion, the conclusions to be drawn are obvious. Do the constantly changing fashions of women's clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of fickleness and instability？ Men are too sensible to let themselves be bullied by fashion designers. Do their unchanging styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stability and reliability？ That is for you to decide.
The main idea of this passage is ______.
A．new fashions in clothes reflect the qualities of women
B．new fashions in clothing are created solely for commercial exploitation of women
C．the top designers seem to have the right to creating new fashion
D．men have the basic quality of reliability
Women’s fashion is now, some believe, at the turning point of similar magnitude, coinciding with the equally dramatic social transformation of the past several decades. The change has been slow: a century long move away from the padding, corseting, and decoration that made a woman into a kind of ornate bauble(小摆设) and displayed her family’s wealth, and toward the clean, sleek modern lines first introduced with the suffrage movement.
But the shift has accelerated in recent years, thanks to changes in the technology and business of fashion. The use by top designers of "weird, fabulous, unrecognizable synthetics," says Hollander "has ruined the status of certain fabrics, like linen, which has had a leveling effect for the sexes and for' the classes." And the emergence of chains like Club Monaco means that "forward looking style. is disseminated very fast and very cheaply," according to Valerie Steele, a historian and curator of "Shoes: A Lexicon of Style," an exhibition now on view at New York’s Fashion Institute of Technology. Such stores have succeeded, she believes, because "there’s substantial group of people with a sophisticated eye for design" who are eager for an affordable version of what was once thought to be "dog-whistle fashion," pitched so high that only a few would get it. Against that back-ground, the shoes at FIT look like fashion’s last gasp. The exhibit begins with the most symbolically loaded of women’s shoes: high heels, which Steele calls "a prime symbol of women’s sexual power over men."
That same defiance of feminine expectations is visible throughout the FIT show: in the boot, for instance, with its connotations of machismo and. military power, or the androgynous oxford, made girlisl with a big chunky heel. The show ends, fittingly, with the sneaker. No longer simply a downscale kid wear item, the big, brilliantly colored, high-tech sneaker has become one of the today’s most dramatic fashion statements, asserting street hip and futuristic velocity. Maybe shoes aren’t so indifferent to the changes in modem lives, after all.
