II. READING COMPREHENSION

Read a story about British life and answer the questions given below.

Mark the sentences with the letter T if the information is true and with the letter F if it is false.

     These days most people in Britain do not wear very formal clothes. But sometimes it is important to wear the right thing. Many British people don’t think about clothes very much. They like being comfortable. When they go out to enjoy themselves, they can wear almost anything. At the theatres, cinemas and concerts they can wear what they like – from jeans and sweaters to T-shirts and shorts. Anything is OK as long as you look clean and neat (аккуратный).

     But men in offices usually wear suits and ties (галстук) and women wear dresses or skirts (not trousers). Doctors, lawyers (юристы) and businessmen wear formal clothes. And in some hotels and restaurants men wear ties and women wear smart dresses. Jeans and open shirts are sometimes not allowed (не разрешаются). It is difficult to say exactly (точно) what people wear in Britain because everyone is different. If you are not sure what to wear, watch what other people do and do the same (то же самое). Or ask the advice of a friend or your host (хозяйка). You’ll be more comfortable if (если) you don’t look different from everyone else.
