共享题干题根据下面材料,回答题。 Shopping at Second-hand Clothing Store When 33-year-old Pete Barth was in college, shopping at second-hand clothing stores was just something he did-"like changing the tires on his car." He looked at his budget and decided he could save a lot of money by shopping for clothes at thrift shops. "Even new clothes are fairly disposable (可丢掉的) and wear out after a couple of years,"Barth said. "In thrift shops, you can find some great stuff whose quality is better than new clothes."Since then, Barth, who works at a Goodwill thrift shop in the US state of Florida, has found that there are all kinds of reasons for shopping for second-hand clothing. Some people, like him,shop to save money. Some shop for a crazy-looking shirt. And some shop as a means of conserving energy and helping the environment. Pat Akins, an accountant at a Florida Salvation Army (SA) (救世军) thrift shop, said that, for her, shopping at thrift shops is a way to help the environment. "When my daughter was little, we looked at it as recycling," Akins said. "Also, why pay 30 dollars for a new coat when you can get another one for a lot less?" Akins said that the SA has shops all over the US-- "some as big as department stores". All of the clothes are donated (捐赠), and when they have a surplus (盈余). They'll have "stuff a bag"specials where customers can fill a grocery sack with clothes for only 5 or 10 dollars. Julia Slocum,22, points cut, however, that the huge amount of second-hand clothing in the US is the result of American wastefulness. "I'd say that second-hand stores are the result of our wasteful, materialistic culture," said Slocum, who works for a pro-conservation organization, the Center for a New American Dream. "Thrift shops prevent that waste from going to landfills (垃圾填埋场); they give clothing a second life, provide cheaper clothing for those who can't afford new ones and generate (生成) income for charities. They also provide a way for the wealthy and middle classes to shed (摆脱) some of the guilt for their level of consumption."1.[不定向选择题]Which statement about Barth is NOT true?A.He is 33 years old no B.He works at a Goodwill thrift sho C.He was a college student many years ag D.He works at a Salvation Army thrift sho 2.[不定向选择题]The word thrift in Paragraph 1 could be best replaced byA.one dollar B.charity C.first cla D.two dollar
