On Wednesday afternoons Annie took the bus into town to shop in the market. For an hour or 1 she would walk up and down between the stalls looking at everything, buying here and there, and 2 a sharp lookout for the bargains that were sometimes to be had. And then, with all the things she needed 3 she would leave the market for the streets of the town to spend another hour 4 she liked best: looking in furniture shop windows.
One Wednesday she found a new shop full of the most delightful things, with a notice inviting anyone to walk in and look 5 without feeling they had to buy something. Annie hesitated for a moment before stepping through the doorway where, almost at once, she stopped 6 before a green armchair. There was a card on the chair which said: “This fine chair is yours 7 less than a pound a week,” and very small at the bottom, “Cash price eighty-nine pounds fifty.” A pound a week... 8 , she could almost pay that out of her housekeeping money and never miss it! A voice at her shoulder made her 9 . “Can I help you, Madam?” She looked round at the assistant who e softly to her 10 .
“Oh, well, no,” she said. “I was just looking.”“We’ve chairs of all kinds in the showroom. If you’ll e up, you will find something to suit you.”
Annie, worried at the thought of being persuaded to buy something she didn’t need, left the shop hurriedly. [276 words]
