13.Last April,on a visit to the new Mall of America near Minneapolis,I carried with me a small book provided for the reporters by the public relations office.It included a variety of"fun facts"about the mall,for example,140,000hot dogs are sold each week,there are 10,000full time'jobs,44sets of moving stairs and 17lifts,12,750parking places,13,000tons of steel and﹩1million is drawn weekly from 8ATMs.
Opened in the summer of 1992,the mall was built where the former Minneapolis Stadium had been.It was only a five-minute drive from the Minneapolis St.Paul International Airport.With 4.2million square feet of floor space-twenty-two times the size of the average American shopping center-the Mail of America was the largest shopping and family recreation center under one roof in the United States.
I know already that the Mall of America had been imagined by its designers,not only as a marketplace,but as a national tourist attraction.Eleven thousand articles,the small book informed me,had been written about the mall.Four hundred trees had been planted in its gardens,﹩625million had been spent building it,and 350stores were already in business.Three thousand bus tours were expected each year along with a half-million Canadian visitors and 200,000Japanese tourists.Sales was at﹩650million for 2008and at﹩1billion for 2009.Pop singers and film stars such as Janet Jackson and Arnold Schwarzenegger visited the mall.It was five times larger than Red Square and it included 2.3miles of hallways and used almost twice as Knott's Camp Snoopy.

17.A bargain is something offered at a low and advantageous price.A more recent definition is:a bargain is a dirty trick to force money out of the pockets of silly and innocent people.
 The cost of producing a new-for example-toothpaste would make 80p the proper price for it,so we will market it at£1.20.It is not a bad toothpaste,and as people like to try new things it will sell well to start with; but the attraction of novelty soon fades,so sales will fall.When that happens we will reduce the price to£1.15.And we will turn it into a bargain by printing 5p OFF all over it.
 Sometimes it is not 5p OFF but 1p OFF.What breathtaking rudeness to advertise 1p OFF your soap or washing powder or whatever!Even the poorest old-age pensioner ought to regard this as an insult(侮辱),but he doesn't.A bargain must not be missed.People say one has to have washing powder (or whatever) and one might as well buy it a penny cheaper.
The real danger starts when unnecessary things become‘bargains'.Many people just cannot resist bargains.Provided they think they are getting a bargain they will buy clothes they will never wear or furniture they have no space for.Once I heard of a man who bought an electric saw as a bargain and cut off two of his fingers the next day.But he had no regrets:the saw had been truly cheap.
 Quite a few people actually believe that they make money on such bargains.A lady once told me:"I've had a lucky day today.I bought a dress for£120,reduced from£400; and I bought a beautiful Persian carpet for£600,reduced from£900."It will never occur to her that she has actually wasted£720.She feels as though she had made£580.She also feels,I am sure,that if she had more time for shopping,she could make a living out of it.
 Some people buy in large quantities because it is cheaper.Once a couple bought enough sugar for their lifetime and the lifetime of their children and grandchildren.They thought it a bargain not to be missed.When the sugar arrived they didn't know where to store it-until they realized that their toilet was a very spacious one.So that was where they piled up their sugar.Not only did their guests feel rather strange whenever they were offered sugar to put into their coffee,but the toilet became extremely sticky.
 To offer bargains is a commercial trick to make the poor poorer.When greedy fools fall for this trick,it serves them right.
