What can be inferred from the passage? Read the text below. Choose the right answer. In the fashion and music industries hair styles change as quickly as traffic lights but bright red regularly dominates the catwalk. So, I am not the first to dye my hair a shocking colour - and nor will I be the last. When you dye your hair an unnatural colour, people feel that as you are so obviously trying to draw attention to yourself it is acceptable for them to pass сomment. Thus, in the first couple days of becoming a redhead, several strangers felt free to tell me that they “hated the colour” and fascinated kids to surround me with yelling, “Look – it’s a punk”. At last I was banned from sitting my GCSE exams because I had dyed my hair bright red. What my experience did reveal is how little our social attitudes have changed since the late 1970s and the heyday of the punk Mohican. I was called “rebellious” and “out to shock”. I have also discovered what poor manners many people show when it comes to reacting to other people’s choice of hair colour. Only hair colour and nothing else. So, whose behaviour differs from social norms: mine or the surrounding people’s? It can be inferred from the passage that our society isn’t tolerant when it comes to reacting to other people’s appearance. It can be inferred from the passage that the author was a punk. It can be inferred from the passage that the author wanted to reject social norms.
