They do all kinds of things that you do not even notice. For example, the simple, ordinary food that everybody must
19、 buy, like bread, milk, flour, and vegetable oil, is spread all over the store. You have to walk by all the more interesting-and more expensive-things in order to find what you need. The more expensive food is in packages with bright colored pictures. This food is placed at eye level so you see it a
20、nd want to buy it. The things that you have to buy anyway are usually located on a higher or lower shelf. However, candy and other things that children like are on lower shelves. One study showed that when a supermarket moved four products from floor to eye level, it sold 78 percent more. Another st
21、udy showed that for every minute a person is in a supermarket after the first half hour, she or he spends $50. If someone stays forty minutes, the supermarket has an additional $5.00. So the store has a comfortable temperature in summer and winter, and it plays soft music. It is a pleasant place for
22、 people to stay and spend more money. Some stores have red or pink lights over the meat so the meat looks redder. They put light green paper around lettuce (生菜) and put apples in red plastic bags. So be careful in the supermarket. You may go home with a bag of food you were not planning to buy. The
23、supermarket, not you, decided you should buy it.（分数：10.00）(1).Marketing specialists study_.（分数：2.00）A.plants suitable for human needsB.how to build shelvesC.method of selling more productsD.how to own supermarkets(2).The more expensive kind of food is_.（分数：2.00）A.in bright-coloured packagesB.on high

26、ist of what you need before you goAlthough each baby has an individual schedule of development, general patterns of growth have been observed. Three periods of development have been identified (确定) , including early infancy (幼儿期) , which extends from the first to the sixth month; middle infancy, fro
27、m the sixth to the ninth month; and late infancy, from the ninth to the fifteenth month. Whereas the newborn is concerned with his or her inner world and reacts primarily to hunger and pain in early infancy, the baby is already aware of the surrounding world. During the second month, many infants ar
28、e awake more and can raise their heads to look at things. They also begin to smile at people. By four months, the baby is searching for things but not yet grasping them with its hands. It is also beginning to be wary(谨慎的) of strangers and may scream when a visiting relative tries to pick it up. By f
29、ive months, the baby is grabbing objects and putting them into its mouth. Some babies are trying to feed themselves with their hands. In middle infancy, the baby concentrates on practicing a great many speech sounds. It loves to imitate actions and examine interesting objects. At about seven months,
30、 it begins to crawl, a skill that it masters at the end of middle infancy. In late infancy, the baby takes an interest in games, songs, and even books. Progress toward walking moves through standing, balancing, bouncing in place, and walking with others. As soon as the baby walks well alone, it has

34、virtues (美德) such as courage and endurance, which were later reflected in his fiction (文学作品) . After high school, he worked as a newspaper reporter and then went oversea to take part in World War I. After the war he lived for several years in Paris, where he became part of a group of Americans who f
35、elt strange from their country. They considered themselves a lost generation. It was not long before he began to publish the powerful novel “The Sun Also Rises“.

36、ingways style of writing is striking. His sentences are short, his words simple, yet they are often filled with emotion.

37、ng the times his characters say nothing. This action is often full of meaning. There are times when the most powerful effect comes from restraint (适度).

Over a period of more than 400 million
42、 years, they have evolved as the tallest, most massive, and longest-lived organisms ever to inhabit the Earth. Yet trees lack a means of defense that almost every animal has: trees cannot move away from destructive forces. Because they cannot move, all types of living and nonliving enemiesfire, stor
43、ms, microorganisms, insects, other animals and, later, humanshave wounded them throughout their history. Trees have survived because their evolution has made them into highly compartmented (分隔的) organisms: that is, they wall off injured and infected wood. In that respect trees are radically differen
44、t from animals. Fundamentally, animals heal, they preserve their life by making billions of repair, installing (安置) new cells or rejuvenated (恢复活力的) cells in the positions of old ones. Trees cannot heal; they make no repairs. Instead, they defend themselves from the consequences of injury and infect
45、ion by walling off the damage. At the same time they put new cells in new positions; in effect, they grow a new tree over the old one every year. The most obvious results of the process are growth rings, which are visible on the cross section of a trunk, a root, or a branch.（分数：10.00）(1).The authors
