  三、阅读理解

  In Europe, men do not usually wear skirts. But the Scottish national

  clothing for men is a kind of skirt. It is called a kilt. The Scottish like

  to be different. They are also proud of their country and its history, and

  they feel that the kilt is part of that history. That's why the men still

  wear kilts at traditional(传统的) dance and on national holidays. They

  believe they are wearing the same clothes that Scottish men used to wear.

  That's what they believe. However, kilts are not really so old. Before 1730,

  Scottish men wore a long shirt and blanket around their shoulders. These

  clothes got in the way when the men started to work in factories. So, in

  1730 a factory owner changed the blanketsintosa skirt: the kilt. That's how

  the first kilt was made.

  Then, in the late 1700s Scottish soldiers in the British Army began to wear

  kilts. One reason for this was national sentiment(=feelings): the Scottish

  soldiers wanted to be different from the English soldiers. The British Army

  probably had a different reason: a Scottish soldier in a kilt was always

  easy to find! The Scottish soldiers fought very hard and became famous. The

  kilt was part of the fame, and in the early 1800s men all around Scotland

  began to wear kilts.

  These kilts had colourful stripes(条纹) going up and down and across. In the

  1700s and early 1800s, the colour of the stripes had no special meaning. Men

  sometimes owned kilts in several different colours. But later the colours

  became important to the Scottish families. By about 1850, most families had

  had special colours for their kilts. For example, men from the Campbell

  family had kilts with green, yellow and blue stripes. Scottish people often

  believe that the colours of the kilts are part of their family history. In

  fact, each family just chose the colour they liked best.

  This is not the story you will hear today if you are in Scotland. Most

  Scottish people still believe that kilts are as old as Scotland and that the

  colours are as old as the Scottish families. Sometimes feelings are stronger

  than facts!
