A (2023·哈三中模拟) 体裁:应用文 话题:生活常识 难度:★★☆☆☆
Everybody has experienced it at least once—pulling out a favorite item of clothing from the washing machine only to find that it is now shrunken, discolored, or damaged! It is at this point that you wish you had paid more attention to the washing symbols on the care label. Here, we will explain the most common washing instruction symbols on wash care labels.
Wash Symbol
Depicted as a bucket filled with water, the Wash Symbol tells you what temperature or machine setting you should use to wash the item of clothing.
One Dot=30 ℃; Two Dots=40 ℃; Three Dots=50 ℃; Four Dots=60 ℃; Five Dots=70 ℃; Six Dots=95 ℃
Permanent Press
The Permanent Press symbol has one line beneath the standard wash symbol. Permanent Press fabrics have been treated with chemicals to ensure they resist wrinkles and keep their original shapes. If a piece of clothing is permanent press, it usually means that you shouldnt iron it.
Gentle Cycle
The Gentle Cycle symbol has two lines beneath the standard wash symbol. The gentle cycle is for delicate fibres like wool or silk, or for items of clothing that could be damaged by a vigorous (剧烈的) washing.
Do Not Wash
The Do Not Wash symbol is the standard wash symbol with a cross through it. If the label instructs you not to wash the item, it will have to be dry⁃cleaned after it gets dirty.
Now youve got the hang of washing labels; you can put your machine⁃washable items in the machine.

答案与解析 C 细节理解题。由第一段中的“从洗衣机里拿出一件最喜欢的衣服时,却发现它缩水、变色或损坏了!此时,您希望您能更多地注意护理标签上的洗涤符号”可知,裤子被洗坏,可能是因为在洗涤衣服之前没怎么注意护理标签上的洗涤符号。故选C。
