Ⅵ.阅读与回答问题
根据短文内容,回答下列问题。
There are lots of little things that we use around the house every day. Many of these things, such as cleaning and beauty products, help us keep both our bodies and homes fresh and clean. However, these products can sometimes be boring or even have chemicals(化学物质) that aren't good for us.
Michael Pieprzyk, a healthcare worker from Virginia, the USA, has a creative way to solve this problem. He makes his own soap to use at home. He first got this idea from his daughter, in fact.
“I have a daughter who often gets headaches from popular scented(有香味的) soap that is sold in stores. I would like to find scents that would be good for her health,” he said. He uses palm oils(棕榈油) to make his soap, along with a bit of lye(碱液) and some water.
This recipe, although simple, results in beautiful soap that is not only less harsh(刺激性强的) for his daughter than common soap in shops, but also cheaper. Pieprzyk said that making the soap himself allows him to both save money and exercise his creativity. He can also make more special soap by using unusual oils and fragrances(香味).
Pieprzyk doesn't sell his soap. Instead, he gives it away to friends and coworkers as a gift. He also offers it to some groups in the city that help people in need.
Although his job and family keep him busy, Pieprzyk has been happy to find time to work on this hobby. “Creating soap gave me a way to do things creatively and make a product that my home can use every day,” he said.

______
2. What are the advantages(优点) of making the soap oneself according to Pieprzyk?
______
3. What does Pieprzyk do with his soap?

4. How did Pieprzyk feel about making soap himself?
______
5. 新考法 开放性试题 Do you want to make soap yourself? Why or why not?
______
