Read the following passage and circle the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the
questions.

Shopping is a necessary part of life which very few people can avoid. Some people go shopping more regularly
than other people to browse products in shops even when they do not have much money. This is known as window
shopping and allows people to plan ahead and save for the things they want to buy in the future or wait for the items to
drop in price. Some people spend a lot of time looking for bargains while others do not think of the price and are
happy to spend a lot. Some people believe that the more expensive the item, the better the quality, but this is not
always true.
It is sensible to buy items which are affordable, but some people use a credit card or borrow money from the
bank so that they can buy the items they really want rather than wait for it.Sometimes shopping can be stressful when
choosing a gift to buy for other people for a special occasion. It is common to buy a gift voucher so that a friend or
loved one can go shopping themselves at their own convenience. Shopping online is often popular with people who
have a busy lifestyle. People are able to order their necessary and luxury items from the comfort of their own home, or
even on the move.
Delivery is usually free and items are often cheaper than in shops on the high street. The only real problem is
that the item description and quality may be more different than what they hoped for. This could mean the customer
may become disappointed with the item they receive and will need to return it at their own cost. People who go to
shops to do their shopping often use self-service payment machines. This usually saves time as the shopper does not
need to join a long queue. However, it can be frustrating when the machine has a problem and the sales assistant is not
always available to help.

36: Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. Shopping – Happiness and Annoyance B. Shopping – All-consuming Passion
C. Shopping – A Waste of Money D. Shopping – Facts and Measures
