38、takes commitment and a willingnessto change long-held habits.”可知,作者建环保厨房,改变长期的生活习惯是她自己做出的承诺并且是心甘情愿的,而并不是美化自己的经历,使其变得有吸引力。所以 sugar-coat 表示“美化,使有吸引力”。故选 A 项。3.D细节理解题。由第一段中的“I tried a lot of different alternativeproducts and some plain old stuff; the result, however, has been worththe effort.

41、es as possible or as small a box aspossible if a single item is to be sent.”可知,作者在网上购物时,会让卖家尽可能用最少的盒子或最小的盒子来包装她买的东西,作者是根据自己所买东西来确定使用包装盒子的数量和大小,而并不是她偏爱用小盒子包装她的东西,显然 D 项与原文不符,故排除 D 项;由第一段第一句“A year ago, I decided to create amore environmentally friendly kitchen, focusing on reducing the single-use pro
