Fewer
than one in seven people can {#blank#}1{#/blank#} ( correct) identify common washing symbols
while a {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (three) of people admit they never check
instruction labels (标签). Some seven in ten say they ever had machine-washed clothes that should {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (go) to the dry cleaners because they failed to look
at the labels.
The ignorance about {#blank#}4{#/blank#} clothes should be cleaned can cost families
thousands of pounds, according to a sample test of householders by a school uniform
supplier.
Men are the worst offenders
with more than three quarters always using the same program on a washing machine regardless
of the instructions. Almost half of {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (woman) used just three programs. {#blank#}6{#/blank#} is said that the lack of understanding over
symbols is destroying thousands of pounds worth of clothing {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (treat) improperly.
While almost eight {#blank#}8{#/blank#} ten people believe it is important to check
the labels on their clothes, less than half look at them when {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (buy) new clothes. Some nine out of ten said they were unaware that some
clothing should never be put in the drier.
The
labels are there to show how clothes should be treated. This {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (help) information can save time and ensure clothes
to last longer.
