What did John and his wife learn in the evening classes? [br]
As prices and building costs keep rising, the "do-it-yourself" (DIY) trend in the U. S. continues to grow. "We needed furniture for our living room, " says John Ross, "and we just didn’t have enough money to buy it. So we decided to try making a few tables and chairs." John got married six months ago, and like many young people these days, he is struggling to make a home at a time when the cost of living is very high. The Rosses took a 2-week course for $ 280 at a night school. (11)Now they build all their furniture and make repairs around the house. (12)Jim Haffield has three boys and his wife died. He has a full-time job at home as well as in a shoe making factory. (13)Last month, he received a car repair bill for $ 420. "I was deeply upset about it. Now I’ve finished a car repair course, I should be able to fix the car myself." John and Jim are not unusual people. Most families in the country are doing everything they can to save money so they can fight the high cost of living. If you want to become a "do-it-yourselfer", you can go to DIY classes. And for those who don’t have time to take a course, there are books that tell you how you can do things yourself.
选项
A、Making shoes in his home.
B、Doing extra work at night.
C、Doing his own car and home repairs.
D、Keeping house and looking after his children.
答案
D
解析
推断题。文章讲到Jim有3个儿子并且妻子已经去世,由此可推断出这句话意思是说Jim需要把家里的事都承担起来,故选D项。
