问题     Every year just after Christmas the January Sales start. All the shops reduce their prices and for two weeks, they are full of people looking for bargains. My husband and I do not normally go to the sales as we don’ t like crowds and in any case are short of money as we have to buy lots of Christmas presents.
    Last year, however, I took my husband with me to the sales at the large shop in the center of London. We both needed some new clothes and were hoping to find a television set. When we got to Oxford Street, it was so crowded that we decided to split up and meet again at the underground station. So I left my husband and started looking around the shops. Unfortunately all the clothes were in very large sizes and so were not suitable for me. But I did buy a television at a very cheap price, so I felt quite pleased with myself.
    When I arrived at the station, my husband was not there. So I sat down in a nearby cafe to have a cup of tea. I quickly finished my tea when I saw my husband and went out to meet him. He looked very happy. Then I saw he was carrying a large and heavy cardboard box. "Oh, dear!" I thought. Yes, we had no new clothes but two televisions. We shall not be going to the sales again.
In this passage, the word "bargain" could best be replaced by "something______".

选项 A、given to people
B、offered at a reduced price
C、offered, sold or bought which is expensive
D、sold for the purpose of reaching an agreement

答案B

解析 词语理解题。题中“bargain”为关键词,它的意思是“something that is cheap(便宜货)”,与B项“降价所提供的东西”相一致,B项是正确答案。而A项“给人们的”,C项“以高价提供和买卖的”,和D项“为达成协议所销售的”都是错误的选项。
