Default keeping fruit from spoiling

I have help getting groceries a couple times a month and buy a lot of
fresh produce then. I try to buy some green and some ripe fruit, but
I'm fighting a losing battle. How can I make the green not ripen too
fast? When I put it in the fridge and take out a week later, it often
doesn't ripen properly or goes mushy. {Anyway I was always told not to
do that.} And if I leave it all out to ripen at once, some does and
some spoils before it ripens.

I don't have a cold room, and the pear travelled miles to get to me in
the first place and in the second place it cost a fortune.

I've found I can freeze just about anything and it works out not too
badly: cheese, milk, yogurt; cooked whatever, meat of course.
But my fruit...?!
