Unit 8 - Đọc hiểu & Từ vựng: Shopping

Read the text and choose the best answer.

Shopping centers become a favorite place for people in leisure time due to various reasons. One of the main factors is the convenience they offer. These centers provide easy access to numerous shops, and help customers to explore different items all in one place. Additionally, the diverse display of goods, from clothing to electronics, in well-organized shops is a definite attraction.

In most shopping centers, it is impossible to bargain. The prices of items are usually fixed and displayed with price tags. However, there are occasional sales or discounts that you can take advantage of to get a better deal on certain items. Advertisements play a significant role in informing customers about the products on sale and encouraging them to make purchases. Therefore, people often display them prominently to attract the attention of shoppers.

However, the appearance of shopping centers makes many people, especially young people, become addicted to shopping. Some individuals become shopaholics and can't stop their shopping habit excessively. They may even make a regular schedule to visit the shopping centers, sometimes leading to complaints about overspending.
