[00:00.52]易考范文二十三
[00:04.68]As is depicted in the above drawing, a waiter,
[00:09.71]using “payment in advance” as a preferential measure,
[00:13.54]sets a trap for the customer in reality.
[00:16.71]What is revealed in the drawing is a social phenomenon that
[00:20.54]has aroused nationwide concerns.
[00:23.39]Nowadays, in order to attract more customers,
[00:26.77]a great number of businessmen adopt the favorable strategy of advance payment,
[00:32.57]promising that consumers are entitled to discounts
[00:36.29]as long as they pay for the service beforehand.
[00:39.25]As can be expected, many a consumer can hardly resist those tempting discounts
[00:45.48]and pays a large sum of money in advance.
[00:48.54]However, instead of keeping their word to offer service,
[00:52.59]some businessmen flee with the money they swindle out of the customers,
[00:57.18]while the latter have to accept bad luck.
[01:00.25]I assume this hard nut can be cracked in light of the following aspects.
[01:05.27]First of all, consumers should be more cautious
[01:08.99]and pay more attention to the credit of the shop.
[01:11.84]Secondly, the Consumer's Association is supposed to take effective measures
[01:17.09]to protect the consumers' rights.
[01:19.39]What's more, it is vital for the businessmen to realize that
[01:23.54]conning consumers can do most harm to nobody but themselves in the end
[01:28.57]and that they'd better win a good credit for the sake of long-run profit. |
