Summer holiday would begin at the weekend, so Bright Middle School decided to hold a school party on Friday evening. The girl students were talking about what they were going to wear.

“I’m going to wear a short red dress, so everybody will notice me,” said Sandy. “How about you, Susan?” “I’ll wear blue jeans, an old shirt, and a funny hat. People will notice me more than you!” Susan said.

“What are we going to do about the boys?” asked Vicky, “Do you remember the school party we had last year? The boys just stood there; nobody invited us to dance, and we girls had to dance by ourselves!” “I hear that some of the boys have learned how to dance in the past two or three months. I’m sure we can find our partners this time.” said Julia.

On Friday evening, at about seven, groups of students came into the activity hall of the school. Then the music began. The girls stood in a line on the side, and the boys on another side. Mrs. Mott, their teacher, tried to get them together, but failed. After a short while a tall boy called Joe said, “I don’t want to stand here for the whole night.” After finishing his words, he started to dance by himself. All the others watched him. In about two or three minutes, Susan came up to join him. Then Thomas asked Sandy if she’d like to dance with him. Next was Paul and Vicky. Then more and more people began to dance, and there were more dancers than watchers.

At about 8 o’clock, Vicky, holding a microphone in her hand, began to sing, “Should old acquaintance (朋友) be forgot and never brought to mind,…” Then Sandy came up with the song of My Heart Will Go On. Next was Julia’s singing of Yesterday Once More. The last song Right Here Waiting was sung by Paul. With the stop of the music at 9 o’clock, the party came to an end. The students really had a nice time at the end of the term.

　　Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something. His purpose is settled and decided in advance. He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a secondary consideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock（存貨）, the salesman produces（呈出）it, and the business of trying it on proceeds（繼續(xù)進(jìn)行）at once. All being well, the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly chat and to everyone's satisfaction.

　　For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants. In that case the salesman, as the name implies, tries to sell the customer something else. No good salesman brings out such a substitute bluntly（直率地）; he does so with skill. “I know this jacket is not the style you want, sir, but would you like to try it for size? It happens to be the color you want.” Few men have patience with this treatment. And the usual response（反應(yīng)，回答）is:“This is the right color and may be the right size, but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on.”

　　Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? She does so in a different way, Her shopping is not based on need, She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having a look round”. She will try on any number of things. In her mind there is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Faced with a roomful（一室所能容納之量）of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour looking around before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.
