Question

【题目】South Africa’s Street Store doesn’t just help to clothe the homeless, but also gives them the shopping experience of choosing what they want. With the idea to give the homeless the same dignity as customers who can pay, the Street Store sets up their pop-up cardboard shop in Cape Town, inviting customers in need to browse through the offerings and choose an outfit for themselves from the hundreds of donated items at their will.

The Street Store works closely with local council to get permission to pop-up their sidewalk shops in poor areas around Cape Town. Because of the social conditions in South Africa, over half of the children live in poverty, making the Street Store even more popular.

The Street Store displays a row of cardboard “hangers” (衣架), with boxes neatly arranged below each one. On the hangers hang shirts, T-shirts, trousers and dresses donated by the Cape Town public. In the boxes below, multiple pairs of shoes await a new owner. Street Store volunteers also act as store consultants, offering fashion advice to their customers as they try on chosen donated items.

The Street Store has already reached thousands in the Cape Town area, with over 1,000 satisfied homeless customers visiting on their first day in operation. The program gives the homeless not only a change to pick up some needed clothing, but also restores confidence by giving them a retail experience—even when pocket money doesn’t allow it.

Answer 1

【答案】

One possible version:

The passage mainly tells us that the Street Store in Cape Town offers the poor both shopping experience and clothes donated by the public without hurting their dignity.

What impresses me most is that the “shopping” process serves to lend great dignity to the act of receiving donations. It is widely acknowledged that there are still a large number of people living in poverty, so it is important for individuals to participate in activities to help those in need. In some way, this activity sets a good example for similar events.

As for me, I will offer my help as much as I can and treat the poor with respect and care. I will pick out my old clothes which are still in good shape and donate them to the Street Store. Only when all of us join in the efforts of helping those in poverty can they have a better future.
