答案：a fabric made in France
原文定位：Yes. In fact, before we started the project, we both assumed it was somewhere in France because that's where the jeans fabric, the denim, was first made. But it's actually from the Italian city of Genoa, where they made a similar fabric in the sixteenth century that was used for trousers worn by sailors
同义替换：「thought」↔「assumed」，「doing」↔「started」
答案：to provide a historical context for jeans
原文定位：Well, the movie is very recent, but in fact, the costume designs are accurate for the period, and it'll give our audience a feel for the sort of setting where jeans were worn at that time in America
同义替换：「provide a historical context for」↔「give our audience a feel for the sort of setting where jeans were worn at that time in America」，「cowboy film」↔「a short clip from a cowboy movie」
答案：the way they were attached
原文定位：Yeah. Nowadays, manufacturers use all sorts of fancy stitches and designs on jeans pockets. But at first, people were more interested in the utilitarian side of things and the way the manufacturer used copper rivets, like little metal buttons to make sure the pockets didn't get torn off
同义替换：「customers were originally attracted by the pockets of jeans」↔「at first, people were more interested in the utilitarian side of things」
答案：an original pair of jeans
原文定位：And we went to the museum because we wanted to see if they had something from eighteen seventy-three, because that was the year when Levi Strauss took out a patent on his design for jeans. And we were really lucky because they had a pair from that exact same year. They couldn't let us take them away, of course, but they did let us take a photo of them
答案：they are always in fashion
原文定位：Well, for the wall hangings, we'll use our own jeans and those of our friends and family. We've got some going back to the sixties. There's never been a time since then when they've been out of style;That's really the thing about jeans. And although they're so durable, that's not what people think about these days;And the main attraction is certainly not price, because they can be extremely expensive
同义替换：「always in fashion」↔「never been a time since then when they've been out of style」
答案：magazine advertisements for jeans
原文定位：And for that, we thought of interviewing the other students about their opinions, but that wouldn't be very visually interesting. So then we considered cutting our ads for designer jeans from magazines, and we found some really good ones;We thought of looking on the Internet for quotes from celebrities about their favorite designer labels, and we found some, but they didn't really say much, so we abandoned that
答案：Make a prediction for the future
原文定位：Your section on history is very interesting, and I think you've illustrated your points more than adequately with relevant examples. But though your emphasis is on the past, and rightly so, I'd like you to use your knowledge of the past to say where you think the whole thing might go. Will jeans still be bestsellers, say, in ten years time
同义替换：「Make a prediction for the future」↔「use your knowledge of the past to say where you think the whole thing might go」
答案：Include more on practical uses of jeans
原文定位：Now, the next section we called variety. We've got a lot about different brands and styles of jeans;But I think we need to add something about using jeans for work because they're so comfortable and tough. They're not just for style by a long shot;For example, even my dad wears them around the house all the time. I agree. That would be a good aspect to add
同义替换：「Include more on practical uses of jeans」↔「add something about using jeans for work」
答案：Use visual illustrations
原文定位：Now, you've also got a section called manufacturing. I thought that was quite good, but I must admit I thought some of the technical stuff about making the cloth could have been more clearly expressed. Mm, I think it would be much easier if we had some step-by-step drawings to go with the text. I'm not bad at that, so I'll do that
同义替换：「improvement」↔「could have been more clearly expressed」，「Use visual illustrations」↔「some step-by-step drawings to go with the text」
答案：Add information about global aspects
原文定位：Your section on marketing seems good, especially the pictures you've included as examples. But you seem to deal almost exclusively with advertising in America and Europe. And in fact, marketing jeans is a huge phenomenon covering all corners of the earth. And your report should reflect that, shouldn't it? You're right. Actually, I found a couple of useful Internet articles that argue just that, so we can use those
同义替换：「Add information about global aspects」↔「marketing jeans is a huge phenomenon covering all corners of the earth」
