much that she didn’t think she has
worn the jeans too often, so the word
“over-wore” is quoted. 3. Read the text carefully and answer
the following questions in groups.2)What does the word “killed” in the last sentence of Paragraph 3 mean?
“Killed” used here shows that the author had considered her jeans which were lifeless as her best friend.3)How do you understand the
sentence “I could tell my mum that
I had gotten her money worth!”
Though the author couldn’t wear
her jeans any more, what made her
feel a little relieved was that the
expensive jeans were worth buying.4)How do you understand the word “special” in the title?
