Reading and Writing A

READING

1 Read a student’s review of a shopping event and check () A, B, or C.

My free shopping trip


Have you ever been to a store and bought a dress that was too small or shoes that
were too uncomfortable? I have. Have you ever bought clothes online and then
never worn them? Yes, me too. In fact, although my closet is full, I usually wear the
same pants and sweaters every week. I think most of my friends have the same
problem.
Now imagine a clothing store with no checkout and no prices! Last weekend, I went
to a store like that. It was a “clothes swap” at my school. Here’s how it works. You
bring clothes that are almost new, but that you don’t want anymore. Then you swap
with other people. I took twelve items to the clothes swap. When I arrived at about
9:30, it was already busy. One of the student organizers checked that my items
were clean and almost new. Then she gave me twelve tickets – one ticket for each
of my items – that I could swap for new clothes.

There were fitting rooms and mirrors, so I tried on a few things. I wanted a blue party
dress, but there wasn’t anything blue in my size. I decided not to look at the shoes at
all. (I don’t need more shoes!) Instead, I tried on a cute black skirt and white shirt.
They were perfect. By lunchtime, I still had ten tickets, but it was time to go.
Although I swapped two items for my original twelve – I was happy.

The clothes swap was a lot of fun. My closet and my bedroom are neater. Swapping
is also good for the planet because it is a kind of recycling. The clothes I brought
home are not new, but they feel new to me. I think swap events are something that
everyone can enjoy. Happy swapping – and don’t go shopping!

Example: The writer never buys clothes that are the wrong size.

1 The writer doesn’t have many clothes.

2 The items in the clothes swap were free.

3 The clothes swap was in a shopping center.

4 The writer went to the event with her best friend.

5 People at the event could try on the clothes.

6 The writer found a blue party dress.

7 Nobody wanted any of the writer’s clothes.

8 The writer chose ten items.
