题目内容
16."Dry-clean only"is probably a phrase that you have seen before.You see it on the labels of certain pieces of clothing-like jackets,trousers,skirts and so on.I know quite a lot about dry cleaning because every Saturday from the age of 15to 18I worked at a dry cleaning shop.It was my first job.It was not particularly interesting,and it was not at all glamorous,but,looking back,I think it was important.The only reason why it was important back then was the money.For the first year I earned four pounds an hour,and after that it was five.It's almost unbelievable now:that's the physically hardest job I've ever had and the least I've earned.But it paid for my social life,my mobile phone credit,a holiday to Spain after my"A"Levels,and my first laptop.
One of the reasons why that job seems important now is that it was the first time I spent on an equal level with adults.As a teenager,the only adults you tend to regularly spend time with are the ones who have power over you:your parents and your teachers.But having a job gives you a chance to mix with adults who are doing the same task as you.And if you don't do the task,they won't shout at you,or call you back after school,they'll just tell you not to come back to work.However,you won't be paid.This is a useful thing to learn early.
My time at that shop also taught me something important about what I didn't want.I knew that I didn't want to clean other people's clothes in the future.Therefore,I went to university at 18with my very own laptop and a good idea of what life wasn't going to be.It wasn't going to be"dry-clean only".

点评 做阅读时经常犯错的主要原因是,仅凭读过文章后残留在脑海中的一丝印象来勾选答案,这样便很容易掉入出题人故意设布下的题目陷阱.所谓阅读理解,对于题目的理解一定要忠实于原文,因此,每一道题都应该与原文作全面的对比与核查,再得出答案.也就是说,阅读理解的每一道题目,在原文都应该有明确的出处,我们把这一出处叫做原文相关句,(1)排除与原文相关句主题不一致的选项(2)排除与原文相关句态度相反的选项 (3)排除用于过于极端或负面的选项(4)注意结合文章主旨和主题去排除.
