1. Read and translate the text below.
While-reading. Read the text and name some popular British shops.
Pre-reading. What do you think of British people? Do they like shopping?
When you want to buy something you go to a shop or market. To buy food in Britain people usually go to the baker’s, to the butcher’s, to the sweet shop or to the greengrocer’s. If you need either sugar or rice, you go to the grocer’s. If you need fish, you go to the fishmonger’s. At the dairy’s you can buy dairy products like milk or cream. But nowadays supermarkets become more and more popular. They use the self-service system. It means you walk round the shop and choose what you want. You can use trolleys. At the exit you pay for all your goods at the cashier.
If you are a traveller in Britain, you should know some popular shops and supermarkets. Sainsbury’s are very big supermarkets. They are for richer people who want to do shopping once a week or even once a month. Tesco supermarkets are leaders, too. But they sell goods at cheaper prices. British Home Stores (BHS) is a group of large shops selling mainly clothes and other products for the houses
Buying clothes in Britain can be a problem for Europeans, because they have different size system. Ready-made clothes departments in London usually use both British and European sizes on the tags. There are some traditions about shopping in Britain. Mothers usually buy clothes for their small children, but British teenagers usually buy clothes by themselves. The British usually buy food in supermarkets once a week. Don’t forget that the British use ‘please’ and ‘thank you’ a lot.
