2014高考英语信息匹配指导及训练系列（17）（附答案） 信息匹配（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 请阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。 首先，请阅读下面有关购车的五条建议： A. Dont assume that the sticker price is the purchase price. To get the lowest price, go in with a starting price thats based not on the sticker price but on how much the dealer paid for the vehicle. A reasonable price to start negotiations is either 4 to 8 percent over what the dealer paid or the CR Wholesale Price, depending on the demand for the model. B. Do your homework. Thoroughly research your choices. Read a variety of reviews. Check the reliability, safety, fuel economy, and pricing of any models youre considering. And dont wait until the day you plan to buy to test drive the vehicles. If you have a trade-in, know its approximate worth. That will depend on the vehicles age, condition, mileage, and equipment, as well as where you trade it in. C. Negotiate one thing at one time. Make clear that you want the lowest possible mark-up over your starting price. Add that you intend to visit other dealerships selling the same vehicle and will buy from the dealer with the best price. Only after youve settled on the price should you discuss financing, leasing, or a trade-in, as necessary. Negotiate each item individually. Remember, youre in charge and can leave at any time. Heading for the door can sometimes jump-start a slow-moving negotiation or bring a lower offer. D. Dont pay for extras you dont need. Dont accept those unnecessary services and fees. If the items are on the bill of sale, put a line through them. Vehicle bodies are already coated to protect against rust. And CR reliability surveys show that rust is not a major problem with modern cars. You can treat upholstery and apply paint protectant yourself with good off-the-shelf products. You can also do your own VIN etching with a kit that costs about $25. E. Other costs. In addition to the vehicle price, you need to consider other costs, including: Sales tax; Registration fees; Insurance premiums Ta
