Q1.  Read the article. Then  check ( √) the four types of clothing that are acceptable under “business casual “ rules.
What is Business Casual? It all started with “casual Friday,” when U.S. businesses began to allow their employees to dress more comfortably once a week. Employees loved it, and soon a lot of businesses were permitting “business casual” clothing every day. There was just one problem – many employees didn’t really understand what business casual meant. Some began to dress as casually as they did on the weekends. This created an issue for company managers. While they wanted their employees to be more comfortable, they still expected them to look professional. It took a little while, but some basic rules for appropriate business casual clothing finally emerged. Here’s what they are usually like: Men: The biggest difference: jackets and ties are not necessary. Sweaters are OK, and shirts can be plain, striped, or have a simple pattern. Pants should be in plain colors such as brown, gray or black. Shoes and socks should be dark. Shorts, jeans, or T-shirts are generally not allowed. Women: Women aren’t as limited in their choice of clothes as men. They can wear brighter colors and bolder (having a strong or vivid appearance) patterns Skirts shouldn’t be too short. Fitted (be of the right shape and size for) T- shirts and pantsuits are OK. Many types of shoes, including sandals, are acceptable. Stockings are not necessary.
