Shopping in Singapore is really a pleasure for tourists. The Great Singapore Sale is held every year, usually during the summer months. Singapore’s famous shopping stores welcome a great number of visitors from all over the world. Their shopping hours last till midnight. During this time, nice and cheap goods are on sale for tourists to choose from. Tourists can also try delicious foods there and experience the Singaporean nightlife.
Certain stores offer discounts of up to 70 percent or even higher if people use their credit(信用)cards. For tourists that hold a special Tourist Card, they can enjoy a lot of benefits(好處), such as discounts on watches, jewellery and cosmetics (化妝品). The card also gives discounts when you visit local attractions such as Singapore Zoo.
It is well worth checking out in the different shopping districts of Singapore during this 8-week Shopping Marathon. Orchard Road is surely the best place for shopping in the city. A large number of restaurants and clubs can be found in this area. Marina Bay includes both big department stores(百貨商店) as well as small shops, so everything you would want to buy can be found here.
Advice for tourists planning to enjoy this festival of shopping: travel light and take a comfortable pair of shoes with you, for you are sure to do a lot of walking and return with your bags much heavier.

閱讀理解

“Ordinary” was the worst word my mother could find for anything. Whenever she took me out for shopping, I found she wouldn’t take any notice of the shop assistants when they suggested that some dresses were popular. She would say, “We’re not interested in that. Haven’t you got anything a little unusual?” And then the assistants would bring out all the strange colours no one else would buy. And later she and I would argue because I wanted to be ordinary but my mother wanted to be unusual.

“I can’t stand that hairdo (發(fā)型),” she said to me when I was in a boy hairstyle, “It’s so terribly ordinary... Not ugly, not unsuitable. But ordinary ...”

“Couldn’t you please wear something else?” I asked one day when she was dressing for Parents’ Day in tight (緊貼的) trousers and a bright pink sweater.

“What’t wrong with it!”

“It’s just that I wish you’d wear something ordinary.” I said, “People won’t laugh at.”

She looked at me angrily, “Are you ashamed of your mother? If you are, Mary, I feel sorry for you.”

1.What did the shop assistants advise Mary’s mother to buy?

A.Something very popular.

B.Styles they have sold out of.

C.Cheap clothes.

D.The most unusual clothes.

2. When Mary had her hair cut in a boy hairstyle, her mother ____.

A.felt happy with it

B.surely disliked it

C.told her to change it

D.thought it was unusual

3. Why did Mary ask her mother to change her clothes on Parents’ Day?

A.Because her mother’s clothes were out of style.

B.Because she didn’t like a pink sweater at all.

C.Because she didn’t like her mother to dress that way.

D.Because she didn’t want others to look at her mother.

4. What does her mother mean by “ordinary”?

A.Unusual.

B.Ugly.

C.Common.

D.Popular.

5. The underlined word “It” most likely means ____.

A.the hairdo

B.the dresser

C.the boy

D.the colour
