Read the text, put 10 questions on it. CARRIE GOES TO A DEPARTMENT STORE
The extract is taken from “Sister Carrie” by Th. Dreiser, a well known American writer (1871—1945). Carrie, a young provincial girl, comes to Chicago and is greatly attracted by the pleasures the big city offers. Shopping is one of them. Drouet,1 her friend, is to meet her at the ready made clothes department. Carrie reached Dearborn Street. Here was the great Fair store
with its crowds of shoppers. She thought she would go in and see. She would look at the jackets.
She paused at each article of clothing. How pretty she would look in this, how charming that would make her! Carrie stopped at the jewellery department. She saw the ear rings, the bracelets,
the pins, the chains. But the jackets were the greatest attraction. When she entered the store, she already had her heart fixed on a jacket with large mother of pearl buttons. The cut was all the fashion that fall.2 She said to herself there was nothing she would like better.
Here she saw Drouet who was coming up to her smiling. “Let’s go and look at the jackets,” he said as if he had read her thoughts. When Carrie got the jacket in her hand, it seemed so much
nicer. The saleswoman helped her on with it. It fitted perfectly. It was just her size, not a bit loose. She looked quite smart. Carrie turned before the glass. She could not help feeling
pleased as she looked at herself. It was so becoming. “That’s the thing,” said Drouet. “Now pay for it.” “It’s nine dollars,” said Carrie, after she had asked the saleswoman how much it was. She took out one of the bills and gave it to the cashier. From there they went to a shoe department where Carrie tried on some shoes. Drouet stood by and when he saw how nice
they looked, said: “Wear them.” Then Drouet advised her to buy a purse made of leather, a
pair of gloves and stockings.
