For a long time Americans preferred things which were mass produced in factories. But recently many Americans have taken up crafts of various kinds. They make things out of wood, metal, glass, wax, leather and cloth. [19]They usually design the things they make themselves and often they sell what they make too. The work of these crafts people has become very good and very popular. These people’s crafts are sold at craft fairs. These are usually community sponsored events. Some fairs are small, bringing together a dozen or so people. Such fairs are held in shopping centers or churches. At large fairs, several hundred crafts people assemble their works for people to admire and buy. [20]These fairs are held in public parks or on county grounds. Crafts fairs are usually held on weekends when people are free from work and looking for things to do. The fairs are directed toward families. [21]They offer rides and shows for the children to keep them busy while the parents look at the crafts. The crafts people buy include things to decorate their homes, clothes for their children, and gifts for their friends for holidays, weddings or special occasions. [22]People go to craft fairs rather than shopping at stores because they look for things that are different and original. They also look out for bargains. The prices for works of art at craft fairs are usually very reasonable.
19.What does the speaker tell us about today’s Americans?
20.According to the speaker, in what places are those large fairs held?
21.What do the craft fairs offer to the children?
22.Why do people go to craft fairs rather than shot ping at stores?
选项
A、They like mass produced things.
B、They design things themselves and sell them.
C、They make clothes and tools for themselves.
D、They use crafts to decorate their homes.
答案
B
解析
短文提到现在美国人常常自己动手设计东西并将他们所设计的东西卖出去,故B为答案。短文一开始提到了美国人以前喜欢批量生产的产品,故A说的是以前的情况,可排除;C、D在短文中没有提及。
