I go to the barber(理发师) every three weeks. I don't like very short hair, so my barber doesn't cut off much. I have known him for almost four years, so when I go there, we always talk a lot. He tells me all his news, and I tell him all mine. He meets a lot of interesting people in his shop and he talks to most of them, so he always has a lot of news for me.
Every year my barber goes to France for two weeks on holiday. When he comes back to England, he has a lot of interesting news. While he is cutting my hair, he tells me about beautiful old cities and quite little villages, as well as strange food and drinks and interesting people he meets. I sit there and listen to the old man with open ears. One minute, my barber's chair is a seat in a French train, and the next minute it becomes a chair in a restaurant in Paris.
Although my barber is old, he always tries new things. He never says, \eaten this food before, so I am not going to eat it now.\He says instead, \everything.\41. The writer goes to the barber_______.
A. Once a week. B. Every three weeks. C. Twice a year. D. Every two weeks.
