The average family spends about one sixth of its income on food. Because food is expensive, it is important to spend money wisely when you shop. A careful shopper can prepare nutritious and delicious meals inexpensively. Here are some hints to help you shop better. Buy only the food that you need. There are several ways to avoid buying extra food. First, make a shopping list before you go to the store. Then, when you are at the store, follow your list carefully. Furthermore, do not go shopping if you are hungry. When you are hungry, food looks very delicious and you want to buy more than you need. Finally, go shopping alone if you can. If you shop with young children, they often ask you to buy them unnecessary food like candy. When you have a selection, choose the least expensive brand of a product. There are three points to remember when you buy a can of tomatoes, for example. First, look at the advertisements in the newspaper to see if your supermarket is having a “special” on canned tomatoes. In addition, when you are in the store, you should check the price per pound of tomatoes. Sometimes you save money if you buy the larger size can; sometimes, however, you don’t. Third, remember that a grade A product or a more expensive product is not necessarily more healthful than a grade B or less expensive product. Grade A tomatoes may look better, but all canned tomatoes have the same nutrients.
Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.
30. What is this passage mainly about?
31. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a hint to help you shop better?
32. Why does the speaker advise you to read the advertisements in the newspaper before shopping?
选项
A、To find out whether there is a sale in certain food.
B、To find out what food is less expensive.
C、To find the food you need.
D、To find out what is the nutritious food.
答案
A
解析
因果关系题。浏览选项可知,选项皆为以“to”开头的不定式,考查目的。文中指出在购物前可以先看看报纸上的广告to see if your supermarket is having a“special”on canned tomatoes,这里canned tomatoes只是举一个例子,浏览广告的目的是看看是否有搞特价的商品销售。special意为“大减价”。
