Shopping is not as simple as you may think! Much has to be done for the producers before putting the products on the shelf.
Color, for example, changes a lot according to what the producers are trying to sell. Health foods are packed in greens, yellows or browns because we think of these as healthy colors.
When some kind of medicine was brought out recently, researchers found that the color of the package(包装) caused the shoppers to lose interest because they made the product look ineffective(无效的). At last, it came on the market in dark blue and white—blue because we think of it as safe, and white as calm.
The size of a package can also attract(吸引) a shopper, although quite often a bottle doesn’t hold as much as it appears to.
It is said that the better-known companies spend about 40 percent of the cost of the product itself on packaging!
The most successful producers know that it’s not enough to have a good product. The head of Pears Soap, who for 25 years has used pretty little girls to sell their goods, came to the conclusion: “Any fool can make soap, but it takes a talent to sell it.”
Health foods are usually packed in colors Except ________.

A.green B.black C.yellow D.brown

Why did the shoppers lose interest in the medicine?

A.Because of the size of the product. B.Because of the color of the product.
C.Because of the color of the package. D.Because of the cost of the product.

If a new product costs $ 60, how much money may be spent on packaging?

A.$ 24 B.$ 36 C.$ 40 D.$ 60

Which of the following is the key to the success in product sales?

A.The way to sell goods. B.A good product.
C.The one who makes a product. D.A nice color.

The passage is mainly about ___________on shopping.

A.advantages of products B.the importance of packaging
C.choices of products D.the cost of packaging

Have you ever paid for educational podcasts (播客) or live videos? Ask some people and most of them will say yes. "Pay﹣for﹣knowledge" has been more and more fashionable these years. The contents of these "pay﹣for﹣ knowledge" products are from language learning to gardening or baby﹣caring. Everything you think of can be found online at this moment. "Pay﹣for﹣knowledge" is on the rise (兴起).

    Why is "pay﹣for﹣knowledge" industry developing so rapidly? First, its development is based on the Internet. With a fast network and a smartphone, anyone who has passed the identity (身份)check can be an online teacher, and anyone with an online account can buy "pay﹣for knowledge" products that he or she wants at an affordable price. Second, people are afraid to miss any information. On one hand, people hope for more useful information. On the other hand,such information is usually at the hands of experts (专家) who serve well﹣known companies and universities.Moreover,the need to learn new skills in today's job market also pushes people to learn on such educational podcasts.

It is good for the development of our country and it can help sellers make lots of money. Besides, buyers can enjoy self﹣growth from it.What's more, this is a reflection (反映) of respect for knowledge and talents.

    However,the rapid development of "pay﹣for knowledge" has a few problems.For one thing,the market is full of eye﹣ catching words such as "How to be an Industry's Expert in 5 Hours" and "15 Classes to Be a Master of Appreciating (欣赏) Classical Music", which sound like if you pay for it, you are sure to succeed. For another, a large number of customers buy them just for showing off. In fact, those who have really had self﹣growth after buying online courses may be the kind of people who need them least. In other words, with or without these courses, they can make it anyway,because they are those who have the ability to learn by themselves.

    In general, the best is the one that suits you most."Pay﹣ for﹣knowledge" may be used as a good start for self﹣ growth. Be careful! Otherwise, your dream of success may not come true.

(1)Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

Aren't mobile phone,e﹣mail and voice mail supposed to help us communicate more easily?Sadly,that's not always the case.Take the other day for example,when I was walking through the park with my friend,suddenly his mobile phone rang and he answered it﹣﹣leaving me alone and cutting our conversation dead! In fact,the park was filled with people talking on their mobile phones.They were passing other people without even looking at them,or stopping to walk their dogs.Clearly,people preferred the voice on the mobile phone to human contact(联系).

Why is it that the more connected we get,the more disconnected I feel?Development in communication technology seems to keep people from human contact.With e﹣mail over the Internet,we can communicate without seeing or talking to one another.With voice mail,you can have conversations without even meeting that person.Even some food stores are using self﹣scanners(自助扫瞄仪)so that you can check yourself out.As the contact between human beings becomes automated(自动化的),my feeling of being disconnected gets stronger.Don't get me wrong.I'm not against machines.I also own a mobile phone,a voice mail system,and an e﹣mail account.Giving them up isn't a good idea,as they are useful to have around.It's just that when they keep us away from human contact,I begin to feel sad.More and more,I find myself answering e﹣mail instead of talking to people.The technology that was made to help keep us in contact with each other is,in fact making me feel more lonely.

What is to be done?Well,I've made myself a plan to use less technology:no e﹣mailing people who live near me,and no letting the voice mail pick up when I'm at home.

42.The example in Paragraph I shows that people now   

A.communicate more easily   

B.dislike talking face to face at all   

C.prefer talking on their mobile phones   

D.are only good at using mobile phones

43.The underlined word disconnected in Paragraph 2 probably means

B.satisfied          

C.stupid         

D.interested

44.It can be inferred(推断)from the passage that   

A.the writer is going to give up mobile phones   

B.machines are now not useful to have around   

C.machines actually keep people closer to each other   

D.the writer decides not to phone others a lot when with friends

45.Which is the best title of the passage?  

A.Technology and Human Life   

B.The Importance of Technology   

C.Technology and Human Contact

You can help a local community a lot by staying in local hotels and eating in local restaurants.This means that your money will go to local people,rather than to a large international company.

Some people like to get up late, but some do not. In fact, it is really good for us to get up early every day. Maybe those who don’t like getting up early will not believe this, but it is true.
Scientists made a survey in about one thousand people, and then they found that early rising people had less disease than late rising people, and early rising people also looked healthier than late rising people, and so on.
So we may know early rising is helpful in more than one way. First, it helps to keep us healthy. We all need fresh air. But air is never as fresh as early in the morning. Besides, it is useful to do morning exercises.
Secondly, early rising helps us in our studies. In the morning we learn more quickly and find it easier to understand what we learn.
Thirdly, early rising can give us a plan of our work for the day. We cannot work well without a good plan.
Fourthly, early rising gives us enough time to get ready for our work^ such as to wash our hands and faces and eat our breakfast.
Late risers may find it difficult to form the habit of early rising. They have to make an effort (努力)to do so. As the English proverb says, “Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise?”
Judge the following sentences true (T) or false (F) according to the passage.
People don’t always agree on whether to get up early.
   In the passage the writer gives four reasons for early rising.
   Early rising makes people happier according to the passage.
Early risers don’t look as healthy as late risers.
The writer encourages people not to sleep late.
