    How the Iron of Tomorrow Can Change Your Lifestyle Today.
    (the first Self Cleaning Iron)
    General Electric introduces the iron of tomorrow. The iron can clean itself inside where an iron gets dirty. Because it cleans itself each time you empty it. How? With a push of a magic blue button.
    ◆The magic blue button
    The first thing you’ll notice that’s different about this iron is the blue button on the side. It’s marked "Self Clean". Push this blue button, and you can wash out loose mineral deposits(沉淀物) that remain and block up inside. Push this button, and you’ve made life a lot easier.
    ◆Less chance of brown spots
    Sure, Self Cleaning Iron is going to cut down on brown spots. (Those ugly spots that happen on nice, cleanly pressed clothes.) Because a Self Cleaning Iron becomes clean each time you press that magic blue button.
    ◆Steams better longer
    Common sense tells you that if you’ve an iron that blocks less often it has to stay younger for a long period of time. In other words, it steams better longer. That’s another joy of ow­ning General Electric’s Self Cleaning Iron.
    ◆What does it mean to you
    Today you are doing so much more than just running a house and running after the kids. You’re working. You’re going to school. It’s all part of your lifestyle. The iron can change that lifestyle by giving you less trouble before you iron. If we can make it easier for you to be a better wife, a better mother, a better housekeeper, we want to. The new Self Cleaning Iron is another one of Home-Makers from Gener­al Electric.

    A child’s birthday party doesn’t have to be a hassle; it can be a basket of fun, according to Beth Anaclerio, an Evaston mother of two, ages 4 and 18 months.
    “Having a party at home usually requires a lot of running around on the part of the parents, and often the birthday boy or girl gets lost in wild excitement. But it really doesn’t have to be that way,” said Anaclerio. Last summer, Anaclerio and her friend Jill Carlisle, a Northbrook mother of a 2-year –old, founded a home party-planning business called “A Party in a Basket.” Their goal is to help parents and children share in the fun part of party planning, like choosing the subject or making a cake, while they take care of everything.
    Drawing on their experiences as mothers, they have created 10 ready-to-use, home party packages. Everything a family needs to plan a party, except the cake and ice cream, is delivered to the home in a large basket.
    “Our parties are aimed for children 2 to 10, ” Anaclerio said, “and they’re very interactive （互动） and creative in that they build a sense of drama based on a subject. For example, at the Soda Shoppe party the guests become waiters and waitresses and build wonderful ice cream creations.”
    The standard $ 200 package for eight children includes a basket filled with invitations, gifts, games and prizes, paper goods, a party planner and the like. For more information, call Anaclerio at 708-864-6584 or Carlisle at 708-205-9141.
    小题1:The main purpose of writing this text is ________.
    A．to share information about party planning
    B．to introduce the joys of a birthday party
    C．to announce a business plan
    D．to sell a service
    小题2:The most important idea behind the kind of party planning described here is that ________.
    A．parents are spared the trouble of sending invitations
    B．guests play a part in the preparation of a party
    C．it brings parents and children closer together
    D．it provides a subject of conversation
    小题3:What does the underlined word “hassle”(paragraph 1) probably mean ?
    A．a situation causing difficulty or trouble
    B．a plan requiring careful thought
    C．a party designed by specialists
    D．a demand made by guests
    小题4:Which of the following is most likely to be a party planner?
