The other day when I was passing a clothing store, I fell in love with a skirt. I knew it would suit me best at first sight. But when I looked at the price tag (标签), I knew I had to give it up.

The love for beautiful clothes has been planted in my heart the day when I was born to be a woman. Several years ago I read an article in a magazine. The article stated that when a woman is at her best time, she is usually poor or tasteless, so she can’t get the right clothes; when she can afford to buy the clothes she likes, she often finds that they do not suit her anymore.

On the way home, I was quite disturbed by such thoughts. It was just a pity, like many other pities. I thought to myself this way. But when I was about to enter the building where I was living, I saw the big mirror placed in the entrance. I saw a girl in it who was in cheap but cleanly washed sweater and jeans. She was rather young, healthy and energetic. For quite a while I was touched by what I had seen in the mirror.

Then I almost forgot the tale: A person without shoes cried until he saw a man without feet. Being young without good clothes is like the person without shoes. I should have felt grateful that I haven’t lost my feet.

56. How did the author feel when she decided not to buy the skirt?

A. Embarrassed. B. Wise. C. Regretful. D. Relieved.

57. The underlined word “She” in Paragraph 3 refers to .

A. the author’s friend B. a stranger

C. the author’s roommate D. the author

58. Why was the author touched by what she saw in the mirror?

A. She came to realize what she really possessed.

B. She was reminded of her devotion to beauty.

C. She didn’t feel at ease when looking into a mirror.

D. She never thought over the other side of a person.

59. We can learn from the text that the author considered her love for beautiful clothes as .

A. funny B. natural C. silly D. simple

B
