Do you like shopping?
    Though I’m not totally averse to spending some time shopping, I’m not much of a big spender. Many of my friends want to shop till they drop, but I prefer not to tire myself out and save some of my money for other things.
    盡管我并不是非常討厭購物，但我絕對不是個大手大腳的人。我很多朋友都是逛到筋疲力盡為止，但我不愿意把自己弄那么累，而且要留點錢作別的打算。
    Is there anything you don't like about shopping?
    The reason I don’t love shopping is the crowds. Whenever I go shopping, I get frustrated by the queues for changing rooms and tills. I only have time to go shopping on weekends, so I'm often in the shops and shopping centres at the busiest time of the week, which can be very stressful. Therefore, I keep my shopping time to a minimum.
    我不喜歡購物的原因是人太多。每當我購物的時候都會因為試衣間和結賬排隊的人太多而沮喪。我只有周末有時間購物，一般都是大型購物中心的購物高峰時間，讓人壓力很大。所以我把自己的購物時間控制到最少。

    Do you prefer shopping alone or with others?
    It depends on the purpose of the trip. If I need something specific, I much prefer to shop alone. I find it is more convenient as it tends to make it a quicker process. But if my aim is to browse and to spend time with friends or family members, I quite enjoy shopping with others.
    這取決于購物的目的。如果我有明確的目標，我就更喜歡獨自一人購物，我覺得這樣更方便而且往往更快。但是如果我的目的是為了隨便看看或跟朋友家人一起玩，那我非常享受與別人一起購物。
    Do you like shopping for clothes or other goods on the internet?
    I generally trying not to shop online for clothing, unless the shop in question has a very good returns policy or it is a unique item I cannot get elsewhere. For other things, though, online shopping is a very useful and convenient tool in today's high-pressure society.
    我通常不會選擇網購，除非該店的退還政策特別好或者該店的單品別處買不到。不過，從另一方面來看，網購在當今壓力巨大的社會中是種非常有用并方便的手段。
    What are some differences between men and women and shopping?
    When it comes to shopping, the biggest difference between women and men is the use of advertising. Women are socialised into thinking they need an unnecessary amount of clothing and therefore that they must buy it in order to be fashionable. Not all but many men are resistant to advertising, partly because men are not bombarded by fashion images to the same extent as women. Therefore, men fall victim to advertising far less than women.
    當談到購物的時候，男女購物的不同點在于廣告的使用。受社會潮流影響，女人認為她們需要買大量非必需的服裝來使自己看起來更加時尚。很多男人可以抵制廣告的部分原因可能是他們并不像女人那樣易受到時尚形象的影響。所以男人遠不像女人那樣容易受廣告影響。
