What happens to a T-shirt that still looks good but no longer fits? A Second Life for Old Clothes Every Saturday, neighbors bring clean clothes they no longer wear to the community center. People of different ages can choose items that match their size and style. The goal is to cut waste and make clothing more useful for longer. Volunteers organize the tables and explain a simple rule: you exchange one item for one item. If you do not have anything to exchange, you can still take one piece at the end. Next month, the event will also offer a short workshop on fixing buttons and zippers so clothes can last even more. Based on the title and on the first and last sentences of each paragraph, identify the general purpose of the text.

1. A) To describe a fashion show where people present different styles on stage.
2. B) To invite neighbors to join a sports activity held at the community center.
3. C) To encourage people to take part in a clothes exchange that reduces waste.
4. D) To announce a store sale with new clothes at very low prices.
5. E) To teach step-by-step instructions on how to wash and dry clothes correctly.

3. A primeira frase do segundo paragrafo informa que os voluntarios organizam as mesas e explicam a regra: troca-se um item por outro.
4. A ultima frase do segundo paragrafo anuncia uma oficina sobre conserto de botoes e zíperes, reforcando a ideia de prolongar a vida util das roupas.
5. Juntando essas pistas, o proposito geral do texto e incentivar as pessoas a participar de uma troca de roupas que reduz o desperdicio. A alternativa C esta correta.
6. A alternativa A esta errada porque nao ha desfile de moda no texto. A alternativa B esta errada porque a atividade mencionada nao e esportiva. A alternativa D esta errada porque nao ha promocao de loja nem preços baixos. A alternativa E esta errada porque o texto nao ensina a lavar ou secar roupas.
