imposing high fee would also ruin merchants business, because they will pay more for their transaction, and since merchants have a great position, i would say the chances are slim

Just know eventually, the 1 MB model scale is going to be forced to be bumped up.
If bitcoin wants daily transactions to happen when there are growing pains, its forced to be more then 1mb.

what I don't get is that if you receive 2 BTC and then 3 BTC on 2 different transactions, They won't merge into 5 BTC but will remain as 2 separate value in your wallet. (as explained here : http://bitcoinfees.com/) However, when I send 5 BTC and choose to send those 2 separate amounts (2BTC and 3 BTC) via a single transaction, THEN they will merge as a single amount of 5 BTC in the receiving wallet. is that right?

No, if you create two different outputs they are two different outputs even if they go to the same address. Its a bit of an arsehole move, you could even send someone 2 BTC in 0.001 BTC outputs each. Its a bit like paying a large bill in 1 cent pieces. Most wallets will not do this though, youd have to create a TX by hand or somehow force non-default behaviour for the wallet.

Im not really here, its just your imagination.

The separate 2 and 3 BTC amounts would be combined when sent normally, but it is possible to do it differently, as Shorena pointed out.

Yes, if you create a transaction which spends from those two outputs to a single output, that output can have a value of at most 5 BTC.

I still have problem understanding how blocks build up.
At a time there is only one block generating. Then transactions are accumulating in that block. then when block reach 1 mb, block is attributed to one miner who gets the subsidies and the transaction fees related to that block. am I missing something?

No, that is not how blocks are generated. A miner creates a block, full of however many transactions they decide to include. This block, when sent to every other node on the network, must be checked for validity. Part of that check is the size. The block is currently not allowed to be larger than 1 Mb. If it is, a node running current consensus rules will reject the block.

Here is how it works: Each miner assembles some number of unconfirmed transactions into a block (up to 1 MB), and then tries to add that block to the block chain. While each miner is trying to add their block, more unconfirmed transactions come in and the miner may or may not include them in their block. Once a winning block is added, the losing miners throw out their unsuccessful attempt, plus the transactions that were in the winning block, and start over.
