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(包裝) caused the shoppers to lose interest because they made the product look ineffective(無效的). 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.”
小題1: Health foods are usually packed in colors Except ________.
A．greenB．blackC．yellowD．brown
小題2: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.
小題3:If a new product costs $ 60, how much money may be spent on packaging?
A．$ 24B．$ 36C．$ 40D．$ 60
小題4: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.
小題5:The passage is mainly about ___________on shopping.
A．advantages of productsB．the importance of packaging
C．choices of productsD．the cost of packaging

小題1:B
小題1:C
小題1:A
小題1:A
小題1:B

小題1:根據(jù)第二段第二行Health foods are packed in greens, yellows or browns可知，黑色不是用來包裝健康食品的顏色。故選B。
小題1:根據(jù)第三段第二行the color of the package(包裝) caused the shoppers to lose interest可知，藥品的包裝顏色使顧客失去興趣。故選C。
小題1:根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段可知，包裝要花費產品費用的40%。故$60*40%可得$24。故選A。
小題1:根據(jù)最后一段最后一行 it takes a talent to sell it可知，光產品質量好還不夠，還需要銷售技巧。故選A。
小題1:文章首先講了包裝的顏色，后來又講了包裝的尺寸、費用等。故“包裝的重要性”符合題意。故選B。

Last summer vacation, I volunteered to work at a vet’s（獸醫(yī)診所）. There I saw a lot of dogs. Minnie was the funniest-looking dog I’d ever seen. Short thin curly hair covered her sausage-shaped（香腸形）body. Her eyes always seemed surprised. And her tail looked like a rat’s tail.
She was brought to the vet because her owners didn’t want her any more. I thought Minnie had a sweet personality, though.“No one should judge her by her looks,”I thought. Finally, I advertised Minnie in the local paper.“Funny-looking dog, well-behaved, needs a loving family.”
When a boy called, I warned him that Minnie was strange-looking. The boy on the phone told me that his grandfather’s sixteen-year-old dog had just died. They wanted Minnie no matter what. I gave Minnie a good bath. Then we waited for them to arrive. At last, an old car pulled up in front of the vet’s. Two kids raced to the door. They picked Minnie up and rushed her out to their grandfather, who was waiting in the car. I hurried behind them to see his reaction to Minnie. Inside the car, the grandfather held Minnie in his arms and stroked her soft hair. She licked（舔）his face. Her tail wagged（搖擺）around so quickly that it looked like it might fly off her body.
“She’s perfect!”the old man said happily.
I was thankful that Minnie had found a good home.
Suddenly, I saw that the grandfather’s eyes were a milky white colour—he was blind.

小題3:Why did the boy who called the writer want Minnie?
A．Because he loved all kinds of dogs very much.
B．Because he had seen Minnie and loved her very much.
C．Because his grandfather’s dog was too old.
D．Because his grandfather’s dog had just died.
