第三节 短文理解2

阅读下列短文，从[A]、[B]、[C]三个选项中选择一个正确答案。

A few weeks ago, we decided to paint (油漆) the outside of our house. To save money, we decided to do it ourselves. On Saturday morning, we went to the shops and bought some paint and a number of brushes. We already had a ladder (梯子), so we were then ready to start. We began that afternoon with the back of the house. The next Saturday I went to a football match while my wife painted the front of the house. On Sunday we found that we could not open any of the front windows. We got them all open in the end but I broke three and they were very expensive to repair. Next time when we try to save money, I shall certainly pay someone to do the work.

Why did the writer and his wife decide to paint the house themselves？ Because ______ .

A．no one else could do the work.

B．they didn't want to spend much money.

C．they only need to buy some paint.
