单选题根据以下材料，回答题
Five years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day."I was a clothes ad- dict," he jokes,"I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled."
Today David wears casual clothes--khaki pants and a sports shirt-to the office. He hardly ever wears a necktie."I'm working harder than ever," David says,"and I need to feel comfortable."
More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work. In the United States, the changes from formal to casual office wear have been slow. In the early 1990s,
many companies allowed their workers to wear casual clothes on Friday (hut only on Fri- day). This became known as "dress-down Friday" or "casual Friday". "What started out as an ex- tra one-day-a-week benefit for workers has really become an everyday thing." said business adviser
Maisly Jones.
Why have so many companies started allowing their workers to wear casual clothes?One rea-son is that it' s easier for a company to attract new workers if it has a casual dress code. "A lot of young people don't want to dress up for work,says the owner of a software company,so it s hard to
hire people if you have a conservative dress code." Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. In a study made by Levi Strauss and
Company, 85 percent of employers said that casual dress has a side effect on work. Supporters of casual office wear also say that a casual dress code helps them save money. "Suits are expensive, if
you have to wear one every day," one person said,"For the same amount of money, you can buya lot more casual clothes."

A． he often wore khaki pants and a sports shirt
B． he couldn't stand a clean appearance
C． he wanted his clothes to look tidy and clean all the time
D． he didn't want to spend much money on clothes

参考答案C

解析:【答案】C。解析：由文章第一段第二句话“I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got winkled”可知，Smith经常带着一套干净的衣服，如果他穿着的衣服皱的话就可以换一下。可以推出，他喜欢自己的衣服一直看起来是干净和整齐的。
