閱讀下面短文,掌握其大意,然后從1-15各題所給的A、B、C和D項中,選出最佳選項。
Unlike high school where braces are often as common as ponytails, my crooked teeth (歪牙) had been embarrassing me when I had to wear braces (牙箍) at college. At first, my
1
made me feel self-conscious and
2
to smile. The money I had to
3
each month made me less willing to spend money on other things, like nice dinners or a new pair of jeans. And because I went to
4
out of state, I had to find the time to drive several hundred miles back home every time I needed a(n)
5
in hospital, which was usually every
6
to 8 weeks.
I got my braces off for the
6
time at the beginning of my last semester of college. I was
7
with the results, although I thought I liked my smile better after the first time I had got them off. Through this experience, I learned that you can
8
find something about your appearance that you don't like. If you can
9
it, cool. If not, it's not the end of- the world. Once I got over the fact that my
10
was going to be a little rough for a while, I was able to go to parties and have fun.
I've come to that realization, so I would not like to go through this experience again. That's why my retainer(牙架)
11
in my mouth unless I'm cleaning it or eating. If I had
12
my dentist's instructions the first time around, I could have saved myself a lot of time and money and
13
some pain and inconvenience.
In a few more weeks, I'll
14
have to wear my retainer at night. A few months after that, I'll probably be told that I can stop wearing it
15
. I hope my teeth will be healthy and I will never feel embarrassed again.
