Whenever you see an old film, even one made as little as

ten years before, you can't help being strucked by the __1__

appearance of the women taking part. Their hair styles and

make-up look date; their skirts look either too long or too __2__

short; their general appearance is, in fact, slightly ludicrous.

The men taking part, on other hand, are clearly recognizable. __3__

There is nothing about their appearance to suggest that

they belong to an entire different age. This illusion is created __4__

by changing fashions. Over the years, the great minority of men __5__

have successfully resisted all attempts to make it change their __6__

style of dress. The same cannot be said for women. Each year,

a fewer so-called top designers in Paris and London lay down __7__

on the law and women around the world run to obey. The __8__

decrees of the designers are unpredictable and dictatorial.

Sometime they decide arbitrarily, that skirts will be short and __9__

waists will be height; hips are in and buttons are out. __10__

參考答案及解析：

1. strucked改為struck或者stricken

過(guò)去分詞形式有誤。strike的過(guò)去式是struck，過(guò)去分詞為struck或者stricken。

2. date改為dated或者outdated

3. on other hand 改為on the other hand

4. entire改為entirely

副詞修飾形容詞different，并與different一起修飾age。

5. minority改為majority

從上下文以及常識(shí)判斷，多半男性成功地抵制了改變他們服裝款式的企圖，即多年來(lái)，男性大服裝款式跟女性服飾相比沒有多大的變化。

6. it改為them

them指代the great majority of men。

7. fewer改為few

此處沒有比較的意味。

8.去掉on

lay down為習(xí)語(yǔ)，表示“規(guī)定（規(guī)則，原則，法規(guī)等）”。

9. sometime改為 sometimes。

10. height改為high

形容詞作be 的表語(yǔ)。
