Answer:
This case involves a federal death sentence imposed on defendant-appellant Fields for conviction of a federal capital offense. Fields was sentenced to death largely on the basis of the opinion of a psychiatrist who stated that he could confidently predict Fields would be dangerous in the future. The psychiatrist testified that he did not know of any "standard psychiatric or medical procedures used in arriving at a determination or predicting future dangerousness" and that he was unaware of specific empirical data or studies. He issued his opinion without engaging in any testing or any other objective measures or use of an actuarial method. His basis for this opinion was discussions with the prosecutors and review of some records regarding the defendant. The defense attorney objected to the testimony as unreliable under the standards for expert testimony established by the U.S. Supreme Court in Daubert v. Merrill Dow Pharmaceutical (i.e., that proffered evidence must be grounded in scientific reasoning or methodology). The district court overruled the objections and allowed the expert testimony to go to the jury.

The correct answers are B) "The price a consumer is willing to pay for a garden hose—its “perceived value”—is a lot higher in Germany than in the United States." And C) "If you want to buy a bottle of water while strolling through Central Park, you may be in for a shock."
Those are the sentences from the passage that support the idea that prices vary for complicated reasons.
The passage states that most consumers look for the best quality item for the lowest possible price and that the price they are willing to pay is influenced by many factors such as the wage they earn at work, how much they need the item, the amount of money they pay for their food, housing, and clothing. These factors change from one place to another and of course, prices too.
That is why is so difficult to understand that a bottle of water in your city cost $1.99, but in Central Park, New York, the same bottle different label can cost twice or more...and people pay it because they agree with the cost and the necessity that is satisfying. The same with the hose in Germany. It that is the correct value Germans assign to the function of the hose, they have no problem to pay an expensive price.
