But half an hour later, you leave the supermarket with a trolley(手推车) full of food. What ga

16、mes do supermarkets play to make us spend so much money?The tricks usually start before you walk in. Outside the supermarket entrance, anybody who walks past can smell warm, fresh bread. That makes us hungry and ready to buy lots of food, not just bread.Now youre inside and, of course, a small baske

17、t would be fine, but all they have are trolleys. And of course the problem with a trolley is that it looks sad and lonely with just one or two products inside. So we may fill it with something. In fact, supermarket trolleys are actually getting bigger so that we buy more.Of course, many people shop

18、in supermarkets because they think everything is cheaper than in other shops. So supermarkets offer very cheap prices on some things but then have higher prices for other products. One new trick is to put red stickers on products. Customers usually connect red stickers with lower prices so the red s

19、tickers is easy to be noticed, even when there is no reduction! Interestingly, this trick appears to work more with men than with women.There is a story behind the position of everything in the supermarket. For example, customers often go only to buy milk. So they put it right at the back, forcing y

20、ou to go past hundreds of shelves full of other products. The position of products on each shelf is also important. The most expensive products are usually at eye-level so you see these immediately. The exception is anything that children might like. These products are on lower shelves so that kids

21、see them.Apart from what you see and smell in a supermarket, what about what you listen to? In most supermarkets they have soft, slow music. Its so relaxing that you slow down and spend more time (and money) in the store. You also move more slowly when the supermarket is busy. Experts suggest its be

22、tter to shop when its quieter, on a Monday or a Tuesday for example. And be careful with queues at the checkouts. These are sometimes deliberate(故意), to make you buy something from the checkout shelves while you wait.So, next time you go into your local supermarket, remember these tricks and see if

His inventions have helped more than 100 million people around the world. “I chose to focus on problems where my knowledge of science could help,” Gadgil said.In the 1990s, Gadgil designed his first life-saving invention after more than 10,000 people died from Be

36、ngal cholera (孟加拉霍乱) because of the clean water crisis (危机) in India. His invention uses ultraviolet light to kill deadly disease-carrying germs (细菌) from drinking water.

37、more than five million people in India and other developing countries.Gadgils another important invention is the Berkeley-Darfur Stove (炉具).

38、ople still have to travel a long distance five times a week to gather firewood to cook meals. This can be dangerous because of street violence in the area.

Have you ever hiccupped so hard that you had to stop what you were doin

43、g? The hiccups is a problem that almost everyone has experienced.The reasons for getting hiccups People get hiccups for some reasons. Hiccups might result from eating or drinking too much or too quickly. A sudden change in the stomachs temperature, such as drinking hot water immediately after drinki

44、ng cold water, may also cause hiccups. They may even happen because of being excited or being under a lot of stress.Making hiccups go awayIdeas on how to stop hiccups have been created, shared, and tried for years. However, what works for one person may not work for everyone. Perhaps the most common

45、 method people use is to hold their breath for a few seconds. If this doesnt work, you can try swallowing (吞下）hard while holding your breath. There are also some strange-sounding ways, like drinking a lot of water. Someone might even try to scare away hiccups.Ideas for curing (治愈）hiccups often inclu

46、de things found in the kitchen. Some people put sweet and sour things into water. Many people believe that eating some sugar can make hiccups go away.Award-winning methodIn 2010, a young girl named Mallory Kievman couldnt make her hiccups go away. None of the ideas that she knew worked for her. So s

47、he decided to find her own cure for hiccups. She knew that sweet and sour things were commonly used to cure hiccups, and she knew that swallowing hard could also help.

52、ollipops can help everyone get away from hiccups.DShe won three competitions with her lollipops.E17、Creativity is the key to a brighter future, say education and business experts. Here is how schools and parents can encourage this important skill in children.If Dick Drew had listened to his boss in

53、1925, we might not have an important product: a new type of tape. Drew worked for the Minnesota Mining Company. At work he developed a kind of material strong enough to hold things together. But his boss told him not to think more about the idea. Finally, using his own time, Drew improved the tape,

54、which now is used everywhere by many people. And his old company learned from its mistake. Now it encourages people to spend 15 percent of their work time just thinking and developing new ideas.Creativity is not something one is just born with, nor is it necessarily a character of high intelligence

55、(智慧). Just because a person is highly intelligent does not mean that he uses it creatively. Creativity is the matter of using the resources one has to produce new ideas that are good for something.Unluckily, schools have not tried to encourage creativity. With strong attention to test results and th

56、e development of reading, writing and mathematical skills, many educators give up creativity for correct answers. The result is that children can give back information but cant recognize ways to use it in new situations. They may know the rules correctly, but they are unable to use them to work out

57、practical problems.It is important to give children choices. From the earliest age, children should be allowed to make decisions and understand their results. Even if its choosing between two kinds of food for lunch, decision-making helps thinking skills. As children grow older, parents should let t

58、heir children decide how to use their time or spend their money, but not help them too much if they make the wrong decision. The child may have a hard time, but that is all right. This is because the most important character of creative people is a very strong desire (欲望) to find a way out of troubl

59、e.1What did the company where Dick Drew work learn from its mistake?AThey encouraged people to work a longer time.BThey discouraged (阻碍) people to think freely.CThey asked people to spend all their work time developing new ideas.DThey encouraged people to spend some of their work time thinking and i

60、mproving new ideas.2Why dont schools try to encourage creativity?AThey dont understand the importance of education.BThey dont want their students to make mistakes.CThey pay too much attention to examination marks and language skills.DThey think it more important to remember some information.3What sh
