No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability . They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasnt at some time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, or delicately picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes.

　　D) Fashion designs should not be encouraged since they are only welcomed by women.

　　注：1.exploitation 剥削，探索

　　3.B 陈述句表示确定语气，与文章中疑问句的不确定语气不同;C 项与文中意思相反，D 选项中only 绝对化语气词。
