Different countries vary_n many aspects. The same circumstances may cause people to behave differently to show politeness. The same color may embrace different indications. The same gesture may suggest different meanings.The same kind of cases recur as much often as possible. However， there's an exception when people of different countries respond consistently.People invariably swarm into shopping malls where goods are at an incredible price reduction.This is out of human nature. Now， let's have a look at day for shopping spree in China， America and Britain.

不同國家在許多方面表現也不同。在同樣的場合，人們表達禮貌的方式會不同。同樣的顏色可能包含不同的內涵。一樣的姿勢可能暗含不同的意思。這樣的例子層出不窮。然而，有個例外，那時候人們的反應千篇一律。那就是當物品打折打得難以想象的低的時候，人們都會涌到商店里面購買商品。這就是人性。現在就讓我們看一看中國、美國、英國的購物狂歡日。
