His purpose is settled and decided in advance. He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a secondary consideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock, the salesman promptly produces it, and the business of trying it on follows at once. All being well, the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly any chat and to everyones satisfaction. For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants, or does not have exactly what he wants. In that case the salesman, as the name implies, tries to sell the customer something else, he offers the nearest he can to the article required. No good salesman brings out such a substitute（代用品）impolitely; he does so with skill: “I know this jacket is not the style you want, sir, but would you like to try it for size? It happens to be the colour you mentioned.” Few men have patience with this treatment, and the usual response is: “This is the right colour and may be the right size, but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on.”Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way. Her shopping is not often based on need. She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having a look round”. She is always open to persuasion; indeed she sets great shop by what the saleswoman tells her, even by what companions tell her. She will try on any number of things. uppermost（最重要的）in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Contrary to a lot of jokes, most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes. They are always on the lockout（停工；停止）for the unexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail to another to and fro（来回地；往复）, often retracing （折返）her stops, before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. It is a laborious（艰苦的）process, but apparently an enjoyable one. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.31 .

The underlined sentence “the price is a secondary consideration” in the first paragraph means when a man is shopping _.Ahe buys good quality things, so long as they are not too dearBhe buys whatever he likes without considering its valueChe does not mind how much he has to pay for the right thingsDhe often buys things without giving the matter proper thought33 . What does the underlined word “promptly” mean?AImmediately.BHappily.CLuckily.DSurprisingly.34 . What does a man do when he cannot get exactly what he wants?AHe buys a similar thing because of the colour he wants.BHe usually does not buy anything.CAt least two of his requirements must bu met before he buys.DSo long as the style is right, he buys the thing.35 . What happens if a woman buys clothes in a shop?AShe tries on the dress, and if it fits her, she will finish the purchase.BShe never knows exactly what she wants, and often buys nothing.CShe often has no definite idea of what she really wants and often buys a lot more than her expectation.DShe will retrace among the rails and try to find the dress that everyone thinks suits her.36 .

We hadnt been together for a long time. We talked and laughed. It seemed that all of us forgot the time.But suddenly John got up and went outside. Where are you going? I followed him.
