Have an idea of the value of what you want. You can consult your Chinese friends or the hotel staff about the price. You may not be able to get the lowest prices stated at Xiu Shui Market, especially on weekends or festival seasons when there are lots of tourists around.

　　Do walk away once you’ve offered your final price while the seller is not ready to accept. If you get called back, you know you are close. If you do not get called back, go to a similar stall(摊位) and try again with a slight higher price. Note that if you’ve made a deal, you are then expected to buy the item.

　　You will help your chances at getting a good price by being confident, patient, and friendly. Treat it as a kind of game to get the most out of it --- getting angry or rude will never help to bring the price down.

　　17. When can you get the lowest price at Xiu Shui Market according to the passage?

　　A. When the sellers are busy.

　　B. On crowded weekends.

　　C. When there’re few buyers.

　　D. on festival seasons.

　　A. an appointment with someone

　　B. an agreement in business

　　C. a choice in shopping

　　D. a delivery of goods

　　19. If the seller accepts your final price, you should ____.
