M: In this episode of Money Talks, our guest is Molly Sanders, a university student and a successful young entrepreneur. Molly, tell us about your business.
W: Well, I sell specialty clothes through a website, mainly for women who have trouble finding suitable clothes in main street shops because of their height or weight. But I do some men’s clothes too.
M: How did you get started in this business at such a young age? Are you studying fashion design?
W: Actually, I’m majoring in finance, but I’ve always loved clothes. And I started making my own at 14.
M: Did you have any sort of training in design or sewing? Or was it a natural ability?
W: I’d have to say no to both. No one taught me to make clothes and most of the things I made at first were disasters.
M: Why did you persevere? I think most people would give up if they kept failing, especially at that age.
W: I kept on out of necessity. As you can see, I’m very tall and I couldn’t find clothes that fit me in ordinary shops. So I kept trying and developed my skills over time.
M: Well, my notes say you earned $50,000 in profits last year, an extraordinary amount for a 20-year-old student. How did that happen? Did you see a gap in the market and decide to fill it?
W: No. When I started university, some classmates complimented my clothes. And when I said I made them myself, other tall women started asking if I would make theirs. And I did. And before I knew it, I was an entrepreneur.
M: So what are your plans for the future? Do you intend to open a physical store?
W: No. I’ll keep things online to keep costs down. But I will add more clothes for children, both girls and boys, and possibly even for infants. And I hope to add to my range of designs for men.
5. What do we learn about the woman?
6. What does the woman say about the clothes she made at first?
7. Why did the woman persevere in making clothes for herself?
8. What does the woman plan to do in the future?

选项 A、She had a strong interest in doing it.
B、She did not like ready-made clothes.
C、She could not find clothes of her size.
D、She found clothes in shops unaffordable.

答案 C

解析 细节辨认题。男士问女士,既然经常失败,为什么还要坚持制作服装。女士回答说,自己之所以能坚持下去,是因为她有这方面的需要。根据原文可知,女士非常高,因此,在普通商店里找不到合适的衣服。也就是说,她找不到适合自己尺码的衣服。因此答案为C。
