三、阅读单选
Just like today, ancient Romans’ hairstyles changed according to fashion. All freeborn Roman women grew their hair long as short hair was a sign of slavery, or the state of being a slave. (In fact, slaves, who were owned by someone and had no freedom, worked in all areas of Roman life except public office.) Later on, most women wore their hair smoothed down and tied back. Roman men—both freemen and slaves—usually wore short hair, and were mostly clean-shaven (刮得很干净), except when they were old.
Most Romans were born with dark brown hair, but fashionable people liked yellow hair, because it was unusual. So Roman women often used vinegar to change the colour of their own hair.
And ancient Romans, who loved pale, smooth skin, painted their faces. Just like people today, both women and some men wore lots of makeup. They used chalk powder as face powder and they painted their lips with plant juice, which served the same purpose as modern lipsticks. (The first modern lipsticks were made by a French company at the end of the 19th century.)
Believe it or not. Romans had to pay a terrible price for beauty. Going to the hairdresser’s could be very painful. In Roman times, sharp scissors had not been invented, so hairdressers used shears (tools used for cutting the wool off a sheep) to cut hair and men’s beards. When a smooth, close-shaven look was in fashion hairdressers had to pull men’s beards out by the roots. one hair at a time!
Roman combs were made from bone or wood. Like combs today, they were designed to smooth and keep hair in order, and were sometimes worn to make them look pretty. But they had another, less attractive purpose. They were used for combing out all the little lice(虱子).
26.Who would usually wear long hair in ancient Rome
A.Free men. B.Free women. C.Official men. D.Slave women.
27.What did ancient Romans use plant juice for
A.Making lipsticks. B.Painting their face.
C.Adding colour to their lips. D.Changing their hair color.
28.How did ancient Romans most probably feel before going to the hairdresser’s
A.Excited. B.Angry. C.Calm. D.Nervous.
29.What is the text mainly about
A.How ancient Romans tried to look good. B.The changes of fashion in ancient Rome.
C.Different ancient Roman hairstyles. D.Why Romans used a lot of makeup.

Dear Mike,
I’m very happy to hear that you’re coming to China next week. Now I’d like to tell you something about the manners in China.
When people meet each other, they often shake hands. Chinese people talk about many topics, even including their ages. Besides, if you’re invited, you are supposed to arrive on time. And you should take a small present with you. If you receive a present, you should open it until your guest leaves your home. As for the table manners, you are supposed to eat with chopsticks. And you’d better not tap the bowl when you are eating. When you are full, wait until everyone finishes eating.
I’d like you to drop by my home whenever you like.
Yours,
Li Hua
