24、“Anyone knows single parents who can’t afford to get their child’s hair done for school? I will braid (编辫子) it for free!”Brittany Starks wrote on a Facebook post.

She decided to offer her hair braiding services after a family friend delivered backpacks full of school supplies, clothing and shoes for Cayden and Ceniyah in early August. “At the time, I didn’t have anything for my kids to start school,” said Starks, who is in between homes and staying with her mother. “It meant so much to me.”

The unexpected gift made a big difference to Starks and her children, and it motivated her to pay it forward. Starks, who works two receptionist jobs, also braids hair part-time. “The hair-braiding process involves washing, blow-drying, and finally dividing the hair into small sections and braiding it. It also requires multiple supplies — including combs, brushes, hair jam and additional pieces of hair to weave in. It costs anywhere from $150 to $400 at a salon (美发厅), depending on the style,” Stacks explained. “But it can last for months and is a huge timesaver in the mornings.”

When she wrote the Facebook post, she assumed only a handful of people would reach out,but before she knew it, she had 35 appointments booked. Her Facebook inbox was suddenly full of messages from single parents, whose stories of hardship and financial challenges mirrored her own.

“There’s a huge need for this. I could really relate to a lot of the women who reached out, and it made me realize that what I was doing was really important,” said Stacks. “What got me the most was seeing the kids smile.” Given that there was less than two weeks before the start of school, Starks knew she needed to enlist help.

【1】What got Brittany Starks to offer her hair braiding service?

A．A post on Facebook.

B．Her friend’s timely help.

C．Her mother’s advice.

D．A trip to her kids’ school.

【2】What does Starks say about hair braiding?

A．It’s a bit dear.

B．It’s time-wasting.

C．It’s an easy job.

D．It’s a mother’s duty.

【3】How does Starks feel about the response to her Facebook post?

A．Rather disturbing.

B．Beyond expectation.

C．Far from satisfactory.

D．Very disappointing.

【4】What can we infer about Brittany Starks from the text?

A．She is single with one child.
