The Differences of Shopping in a Market and a Supermarket
Nowadays, with the development of our society’s economy,
supermarkets become more and more familiar to the daily life of we
ordinary people. At the same time, markets also attract massive
people to do shopping in them. As shopping places, what’s the
difference between market and supermarket?
Firstly, supermarkets are bigger in size than markets. Supermarket
offer a wide variety of food and household merchandise, organized
into departments. It is larger in size and has a wider selection than a
traditional market. People may have more chances to buy what they
want to buy.
Secondly, supermarkets work on a self-service principle, but people
shop in markets may be led by the shopkeeper. In supermarkets, people
truly have the freedom to select commodities. No consideration of how to
bargain with the shopkeeper, because the price is obviously on its mark,
of course sometimes you will have a member price. However, in markets,
it’s easy to see a scene that a customer is bargaining with the shopkeeper
for the red to win. It’s full of noise and a little bit disordered. Thus, the
business depends on both the customer and shopkeeper.
Thirdly, supermarkets have a more systematic after-sale service, but
market may be not ensure this. After-sale service is a very important
concern when you buy household merchandise. If the seller offers
customers with free transportation and receive complains and try to
find solutions to that and so on. As markets, they care little about
this in truth.
All in all, supermarkets and markets are very different from each
other. One can choose either one to satisfy one’s need in some
occasions.

Teacher’s comments and suggestions:
This essay makes a comparison and contrast between
shopping in a supermarket and in a market. It adopts the
point-by-point pattern and the three points are well
explained. Besides, the transitional words are properly used
so that the whole essay sounds quite logical and smooth.
My suggestion is that when doing the comparison and
contrast, we’d better give both subjects equal attention so as
to keep the essay more balanced.
