六、阅读理解。
Today is Sunday. Mrs Green takes her children Trudy and Sam to go shopping. They go to the supermarket in a new shopping centre.
"Why do you buy things here?" Trudy asks.
"Because things here are cheaper than those at the corner store," his mother answers.
The Greens are not very rich and Mrs Green is very careful with her money. She looks carefully at the prices. She buys a kilo of potatoes and some milk in the supermarket. When they get home, the children say, "We don't think you can save money by going to the supermarket. "
"Of course I can," Mrs Green says. "Everything is cheaper there. "
"We know," Trudy and Sam say. "But we come home by taxi because we have got too many things to carry. The cost of the taxi is more than the money that you saved!"
Mrs Green thinks for a while. Then she says to the children, "You are right. We'll go to a nearer supermarket next time. "
