问题     If the job of decorating your room -- not only with furniture but with floor and wall coverings, artwork and other elements -- seems too big for your available time, know-how or artistic talent; if you want access to furniture choices available through wholesale showrooms not open to the public; or if you just want the benefit of someone else’s ideas, you may want to consider hiring an interior designer.
    You can hire a designer at different levels: for the whole job, from developing a design concept to purchasing and supervising installation of the furnishings, or for a two- or three-hour consultation, just to give you some new ideas and perspective. Even if you hire a designer for a complete job, you can, and should, be involved. It’s important to meet with the designer regularly to review plans, fabric samples, proposed furniture purchases and other needs.
    Some designers won’t take you on as a client unless you’re planning a major project. However, others are willing to work with limited budgets. Most designers also understand that you might want a plan now, while expecting to spread out actual purchases over many months. Recently, more and more designers have offered the service of giving your home a new look by rearranging what you already have, and perhaps adding a few new pieces.
    Some designers are employed by a store, such as one selling wallpaper, fabric, furniture or floor coveting; others are independent designers working along with or as a member of a design firm.
    Some store-based designers offer limited services, while others provide more extensive services, including drawing floor plans, advising on color, ordering materials and making home visits.
According to the passage, why are some people possibly reluctant to hire an interior designer?

选项 A、They feel that the decorating job is interesting and fun.
B、They want to listen to other people’s ideas.
C、They would rather spend money on expensive furniture.
D、They think they can cope with the job themselves.

答案D

解析 D项不是if从句涵盖的内容,故为答案。A、B、C三项都是if从句内容的变通说法。
