M: Got it. You know, it’s really a number’s game. Because a lot of times when you’re looking at these different deals, it’s like:(10-1)save 30% , save 50%. But are you really saving that much money when you’re looking at your purchase?
W: That’s what their purpose is for. You’ll see a lot of times in the advertising that they’ll type out the savings, and the interest is in the fine print. Almost you’ll see what the new price is on something and when they do that. It’s basically a visible trick. Whatever you see, first, you’re more likely to become attached to the deal. And the price in comparison is not going to look such a big deal. I mean if you’re saving $500, it does not really matter if the TV is still $1 ,500. The advertising works in such a tricky way that(6)you might think you’re getting that much a better price, because the savings are significant.
M: Right. Sometimes the purchase really isn’t that large of a purchase, so you know, 30% is not that big of a deal. But when you see 30% , you think: wow, I’m getting a really good deal here. It’s funny how the numbers are working there, and they know that.
W: They do, and they want us just to splash around this time of a year.(7)So really you should make sure you’re looking for the items that are between your price range and then start to see if there’re sales that are might abroad, something even better and a little bit cheaper for you.
M: Yeah, I got it.(10-2)And shop now, save later. Is that a trick?
W: Well. You see a lot of these, especially with closing stores at this time of year and this is a way that consumers tried to think they are going to game a system, because they are going to buy something a little bit today and get today’s sale,(10- 3)and they are going to get coupons to come back in two weeks and buy a little bit more than even with better prices.(8)So for this one, you know somebody’s sales are right there now, just try to focus on what deals they are currently and they are not trying to play games.
M: So I think the key words here are just "stay focused". You know you have a list, you have your budget. Try not to be fond of them if you don’t have to.
W: Exactly.(9)Make that list and check it twice. And jusl make sure you are not deviating from it, or if you feel imposed to do so and you really look at it, make sure that’s as smart as it looks.
M: Well, that’s what we are going to set out to do.
W: Yeah.
M: Thanks Kelly for helping us adults out in knowing what the shopping is really for.
W: It’s my pleasure.
This is the end of Part Two of the interview. Questions 6 to 10 are based on what you have just heard.
6. What is the purpose of the stores emphasizing the savings in the deals?
7. According to the interview, how to avoid the number trick?
8. Which of the following statements is INCORRECT according to the interview?
9. In general, what should we do when shopping?

选项
A、To compare prices when buying.
B、To ignore the high price.
C、To buy things in advance.
D、To wait to buy some better things.
答案
B
解析
本题设题点在因果关系处。在被问及商家搞活动是否真的省钱时,Kelly Grant指出商家真正的目的是利用这种方式来促销,根据句(6)可知,节省后折算的价格也许仍然很高,但这种手段往往会让顾客觉得自己捡到了便宜,从而忽视了商品的高价格,故答案为[B]。
