【分析】
本题为招聘类阅读理解，包含3道细节理解题。解题思路是：先通读全文，明确三个招聘岗位（Support worker、Trainee hairdresser、Writer）的要求、职责、薪资等信息；再针对每道题的题干关键词，定位到原文对应段落，对比原文与选项内容，选出匹配的答案。第1题对应Support worker岗位要求，第2题对应Trainee hairdresser岗位职责，第3题对应Writer岗位薪资依据，通过定位原文细节即可解题。
【解析】
1. 定位Support worker岗位的要求：原文提到需能照顾他人、理解老人感受、周末工作等。选项A“take good care of the old on weekends”符合要求；B中“children”与原文“old people”不符；C中“write to them often”原文未提及；D中“have some training at the weekend”原文是提供培训而非要求周末培训，故排除B、C、D，选A。
2. 定位Trainee hairdresser岗位的工作内容：原文职责包括“washing hair”“keeping the area clean”，工作时间为周一至周六。选项A中“work on Sundays”与原文不符；B中“work on Sundays”“bring food to customers”均错误；C中“bring food to customers”错误；D“do some cleaning and wash hair for clients”符合原文，故选D。
3. 定位Writer岗位的薪资说明：原文明确“pay is based on the number of people who read your articles”，即薪资由文章阅读人数决定，因此读者越多收入越高。选项C“have a large number of readers”符合；A、B、D均与薪资依据无关，故选C。
