問題詳情

四、閱讀測驗【請依照段落上下文意,選出最適當的答案】Over the past few years, more and more small stores in Taipei have started selling secondhand brand-name goods.Mostly aimed at women, these stores offer all the well-known brands—Gucci, Prada, Louis Vuitton, and so on—at pricesmuch lower than department stores. There is even magazine, Secondhand Brand Goods Monthly, guiding customers to thebest places to buy used stuff.The center of this secondhand boom is the Ding Hao area on Chunghsiao East Road. Within a small area, more thantwenty shops are selling used brand-name goods, mainly clothing and accessories like handbags. Customers, who rangefrom high school girls to middle-aged women, like the fact that they can purchase something that looks new and then sellit back when they get tired of it. They know that a Prada bag, for example, has a fixed value, and that even if it is third- orfourth-hand, it is still worth thousands of NT.Like many other trends in Taiwan, this one originated in Japan. During the long economic recession in the 1990s,many Japanese women couldn’t afford the brand-name goods that they wanted. As a result, the number of secondhandstores increased quickly. In Taiwan, the trend is growing so rapidly that stores are now opening in New Taipei City andeven in other cities, such as Chiayi, Nantou, and Tainan.Whether the business of selling secondhand brand-name goods is just a fad remains to be seen. Retail experts suggestthat it might actually become a long-term success. After all, if you have a Gucci bag that you no longer want, you might aswell exchange it for a newer one instead of leaving it to collect dust in your cupboard.
