Betty needed some new clothes. Mrs. Jones took her to the department store. They went to the children's department. A saleswoman came up to them.

　　“Can I help you?” she asked.

　　“Yes,” Mrs. Jones said. “My daughter needs a new blouse.”

　　“What size is she?” the saleswoman asked.

　　“She was a size six last year, but she's bigger now.”

　　“We'll try a size seven,” the saleswoman said.

　　Betty tried on several blouses. She didn't like any of them. Some were too big. Some were too small. Then she tried on one that was the right size.

　　“That one looks right,” her mother said.

　　“No, Mom,” Betty said. “It's too heavy. I'll be hot.”

　　At last Betty found one she liked. “This is just right,” she said. “It's not too heavy. It's not too thin. I like the color.”

　　“Good,” her mother said. She turned to the saleswoman. “How much is this blouse?” she asked.

　　“One hundred dollars,” the saleswoman said.

　　“That's much too expensive!” Mrs. Jones said.

Reading comprehension

　　One day Mrs Wilson went shopping with Tracy and Ben. They went to the supermarket in the new shopping centre.

　　“Why do you buy things here?” Tracy wanted to know. “Because they are cheaper here than at the corner store near out home,” Mrs Wilson said. “Help me check the prices, please.”

　　The Wilsons were not rich and Mrs Wilson was always careful with her money. She looked carefully at the prices of things. She bought lots of things in the supermarket. When they got home, the children said, “We don't think you saved money by going to the supermarket.”

　　“Of course I did,” Mrs Wilson said. “Everything was cheaper there.”

　　“We know,” the children said, “but we came home by taxi because we had too much to carry. The taxi fare was more than the money that you saved!”

　　Mrs Wilson added everything up. Her children were right.

　　“Well done,” she said. “Next time we'll do the shopping nearby.”
