Answer 1

This year, on 11 November, the sales of Tmall reached 35 billion yuan, which equals the total sales of all the Wangfujing Department stores for a whole year. It shows that the way people buy and sell things is changing and online shopping is becoming increasingly popular.
The reason why people are crazy shopping online are as follows. For one thing, people can buy whatever they want at a much lower price online and all this can be done by just click on the mouse. For another, it has become a trend for people to buy things on this special day, so you may find yourself out of date if you don’t do the same.
In my opinion, while online shopping offers us a lower price and a wider variety, we should always buy things we really want and avoid wasting money.
