答案                         On Team Purchasing
    In recent years, with the development of the Internet and online shopping, team purchasing (or group buying, group purchasing) is [1] gaining increasing popularity among people, especially the young. [2] Towards such a new phenomenon on the Internet, people’s attitudes vary greatly. Though many people do not agree to this kind of online shopping, [3] I maintain that team purchasing does the customers a lot of good.
    To begin with, team purchasing can improve efficiency. Nowadays, [4] in the face of various goods and services, many customers feel it difficult to make a choice. When people have to spend an extensive amount of time selecting commodities or services that fit their needs, it’s no doubt that the efficiency is reduced. However, team purchasing can help [5] cure the headache that customers experience in e-commerce, because most team purchasing activities offer discount on only one item every day. In this case, customers’ needs become more explicit. [6] To buy or not to buy? It’s a decision that can be quickly made. Therefore, if we say that online shopping has greatly enhanced people’s efficiency, team purchasing is driving such efficiency to a new level.
    In addition, group purchasing brings more [7] tangible benefits to customers. [8] On the one hand, compared with ordinary stores, supermarkets, online shopping, etc., team purchasing websites always provide goods and services at much lower prices, often 20% to 30% of their market price, [8] On the other hand, group purchasing ensures a relatively higher quality of various products, since most goods and services are well-known brands.
    Finally, team purchasing creates a platform of communication for the customers. In the past, although people were eager to find someone who shared the same shopping needs before they went shopping so that they could buy a good bargain, they lacked the terrace to get information and interact with others. However, with online team purchasing, the above problem can [9] be smoothly solved.
    As the benefits that team purchasing brings to the buyers are obvious, it is understandable that team purchasing enjoys a striking popularity among people. However, [10] it is still worth mentioning that team purchasing carries some risks. And one of them is that since there is a lack of related laws to regulate team purchasing, the phenomenon of fraud is not uncommon. Therefore, when people turn to group buying for lower prices, they should be cautious and choose some professional websites.

[9]“迎刃而解”，选词地道。
