Nature has supplied every animal except man with some covering for his body such as fur feathers hair and shells as a thick hide. But man has nothing but a thin skin.
If someone were to ask you “Why did human beings start to cover their bodies with clothes?” most would answer “To keep themselves warm of course.”
It is only when we begin to think about it a little that we realize that clothes are worn for a great many reasons that have nothing to do with our need for warmth at all.
For example we wear clothes to some degree in order to decorate ourselves-to make ourselves if possible look more dignified(尊严) or nicer.
Clothes of a special kind are often worn to show that the wearer has authority or power. The individual wearing them is treated with respect because he occupies a certain office. The judge on the Bench for example might look a very ordinary and unimpressive figure without his wig and gown. Clothes are an important part of ceremony whether it is connected with belief the law parliament and royalty the fighting forces or the state. How very different the Queen's Coronation ceremony(加冕仪式) would have looked without the robes coronets and the cloth of gold.
Sometimes even in some modern countries people wear some article of clothing or some jewel because they believe that it will bring them luck or protect them from evil or illness or because it is connected with their beliefs.
None of these reasons for wearing clothes-to decorate ourselves to show our position in the world for ceremonial purposes for “luck” to give ourselves dignity and authority-have anything to do with our need for warmth.
