2019年公共英语三级试题:完形填空(14)
Just who is doing the 1 for whom in the sales? Are the shops really giving 2 shoppers a chance to buy bargain? 3 are we just helping them to clear their shelves twice a year to 4 way for new-buying up the rubbish they would 5 throw away?
In most sales there is a bit of 6 . Some bargains are more genuine than other. Some price claims are true, 7 others are misleading or plain false.
If the sale notice says “Coats—reduced from £30 to £10”it should 8 law, be true.
The rules are that, unless a shop says otherwise, the coats 9 have been on sale at the higher price for at least 28 10 days in the previous six months. They can, however, 11 around it by saying “Last week £30. Now £10”.
Be a bit 12 about a ticket which just says “Sale price £5”. It may mean the goods are specially bought 13 for the sale and does not necessarily indicate any 14 .
And there is nothing to prevent the shopkeeper 15 : “Worth £50, only £20” or even “Normally £300, only £150”.
Another practice which is 16 upon, though not illegal, is an imprecise offer, like “Up to £10 off latest 17 “.
It gives no clear idea of how much you have to spend or exactly what you have to buy to 18 .
If you see a price claim you do not believe or feel to be misleading, you can complain 19 the local Trading Standards Office – the town hall will put you in 20 .
