　 Buying what we need not what others say is good should be the rule of our shopping. I was walking through the street one day when I caught sight of a strange store. There wasn’t anything but　 36　 shelves at one end of the room ,in front of which a man standing on a raised platform and shouting loudly that the greatest　 37　　 of the year was about to begin ,I decided to stay and see what would happen.

　 A salesman began to　 38　 bs and a large quantity of small packets in bright paper .When the man at the table was satisfied that a large crowd of people had　 39　 , he began　 40　　 out the packets, asking for the sum of three pence in 　41　 ,and declaring the　 42　 of the contents was fifty times as much.

　I paid three pence for my packet and was 43　　 told I should not open it until after the sale. All these beautiful things ,the man announced, would be nearly given　 44　 .He was as good as his　　

45 .for he held up a razor(剃须刀) and asked a young man if it was worth six pence ,The young man was　 46　 about the matter and was at once handed the razor for the sum asked.　 47　 happened with a number of other small articles.

　Then　 48　 asking small sum like six pence , the man began to　 49　 large amounts for “very rare, high-quality” objects. The people　 50　 , thinking that these too were being”　 51　 away”, soon found themselves paying a great deal for　 52　 things I decided I ‘d better go quickly　 53　 being persuaded into buying something I didn’t want. I went into the　 54　 ,opened my prize-packet and found that I had been rewarded with a(n)　 55　 bottle of scent(香水)。
