(2015·长沙高三模拟)Do you like shopping? Or does the thought of wandering round the shops fill you with terror? For some of us,shopping is an enjoyable way of spending our
spare time and our money.For me,it’s something I would rather avoid.Thank goodness for the
Internet! It’s more convenient to buy CDs,electrical items,even food,from the comfort of your
sofa.But that’s not the only reason: price is an important factor.We can buy goods and services
cheaper online.But sometimes the problem is knowing what to buy.This has led to a type of
shopping called“showrooming”.
Showrooming is something I’ve done.I will go to a shop to see,touch and try out products
but then go home and buy them online at a knock-down price. I’m not alone in doing this.Research by a company called Foolproof,found 24% of people showroomed while Christmas
shopping in 2017.
Amy Cashman,Head of Technology at TNS UK,says the reasons for this new shopping
habit are that“people are lacking time,lacking money and they want security about the products
they are buying”.She explains that consumers are not only shopping online at home but they are using the Internet in store or on their smartphones to shop around.
