  Passage Three
  I came across an old country guide the other day. It listed all the tradesmen in each village in many parts of the country, and it was impressive to see the great variety of services which were available on one’s own doorstep in the late Victorian countryside.
  Nowadays a traveller in rural England might conclude that the only village trades­men still flourishing were either selling frozen food to the inhabitants or selling antiques to visi­tors. Nevertheless, this would really be a false impression. On the surface, there has been a contradic­tion of village commerce, but its power is still remarkable.
  Our local grocer’s shop, for example, is actually expanding in spite of the competition from supermarkets in the nearest town. Women sensibly prefer to go there and exchange the local news while doing their shopping, instead of queuing up at a supermarket. And the grocer knows well that personal service has a considerable cash value.
  His prices may be a bit higher than those in the town, but he will deliver anything at any time. His assistants think nothing of bicycling down the village street in their lunch hour to take a piece of cheese to an old age retired woman who sent her order by word of mouth with a friend who happened to be passing. The richer customers telephone their shopping lists and the goods are on their doorsteps within an hour. They have only to hint at a fancy for some commodity out­side the usual stock and the grocer, a red faced figure, instantly obtains it for them.
  26.The services in villages nowadays _____.
  A. are declining
  B. are still very active
  C. are active in selling antiques to visitors
  D. are not able to meet the villagers’ demands
  27. The local grocer’s shop is expanding _____.
  A. because it is a place for women to chat
  B. even though town shops are convenient
  C. because personal service is available only there
  D. even though town shops sell a bit cheaper goods
  28. The writer implies that one disadvantage of town shops is that ______.
  A. their prices are too higher
  B. people cannot telephone them
  C. people must queue up to buy goods
  D. their staff make fewer efforts to satisfy customers
  29. How do village grocer’s assistants feel about giving extra service?
  A. They don’t think it is a trouble.
  B. They don’t think it worthwhile.
  C. They are very reluctant to offer it.
  D. They think it pleasant to deliver the cheese on bicycle.
  30. Another aspect of personal service available in the village shop is that ______.
  A. there is a very wide range of goods available
  B. rare goods are obtained whenever they are needed
  C. goods are always restocked a little before they run out
  D. special attention is given to the needs of richer customers
