21、You need some bread and milk. But half an hour later, you leave the supermarket with a trolley(手推车) full of food. What games 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 you’re inside and, of course, a small basket 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 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(顾客) usually connect red stickers with lower prices so the red stickers 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 you 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 at once. The exception is anything that children might like. These products are on lower shelves so that kids see and even reach them.
Except what you see and smell in a supermarket, what about what you listen to? In most supermarkets they have soft, slow music. It’s 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 it’s better to shop when it is 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 for your turn.
So, next time you go into your local supermarket, remember these tricks and see if you can come out with just the things you want.
【1】Many supermarkets put red stickers on products to ________.
A.make them look more beautiful

【3】What is the passage mainly about?

B.several ways supermarkets use to sell more products
C.some advertisements that make customers buy more
D.some advice when people go shopping in supermarkets
【4】Perhaps the writer agrees that ________.
A.people like soft and slow music in supermarkets
B.things are cheaper in supermarkets than in other shops
C.people should just buy things they need in supermarkets
D.people should leave the supermarket with a trolley full of things
22、I work at a university in the US where my team and I are trying to learn more about the American black duck, a kind of water bird. And now we are using an exciting piece of equipment (设备) called a “night vision scope”. By using it, we can see the ducks in the dark.
We’re worried about black ducks mainly because their numbers are falling hugely. And we don’t know whether there’s enough food on the east coast for these birds. There’s lots of information about their daytime activities, but nothing about what they do at night, because we simply don’t have the equipment. But this new “scope” will make really clear pictures, even on moonless nights, so we will be able to find out more about the ducks.
It is very hard work. There are four of us, and we each work six hours every day. We study ducks in different places, and I sometimes have to take a boat to where I need to work. The weather is not helpful because most of the time it’s wet. Oh, and it’s so quiet that sometimes I need coffee to stop me falling asleep.
But I like this job. Over the summer, we will spend hours in a laboratory, where we will look at our results together. It will be hard to stay there every day because of the hot weather — but it is very important to do this!

23、 A father and his son went to a kite-flying festival. The son was happy when he saw the sky filled with colorful kites. He wanted to fly a kite, too. The father then bought a kite for his son.
The son started to fly the kite. Soon it was high up in the sky. After a while, the son said, "Dad, it seems that the string(线) is stopping the kite from flying higher. If we cut it, it will be free and fly even higher. Can we cut it?" The father cut the string off the reel(线轴). The kite started to go higher. This made the little boy happy.
But then, the kite started to come down. It soon fell to the ground. The son was surprised to see this. He asked his father, "I thought that after cutting the string, the kite would fly higher. Why did it fall down?"
The father explained, "The string was not stopping the kite from going higher, but was helping it stay in the sky. You use the string to help the kite go up in the right direction. But when you cut the string, it could no longer support(支持) the kite."

25、Is it true that we British people have a different sense of humour from people in other countries? Let’s have a look at what we laugh at in Britain.
To us British people, 【1】 (power) and important people often cause laughter. It’s not just politicians(政客) who make us laugh, but anyone whose job is to tell other people what to do and who takes 【2】 (them) too seriously.
We laugh 【3】 the power, but also, at anyone who is treated badly. We know they cannot win, but if they do win sometimes, it’s even funnier. Our clowns (小丑) are often silly people doing silly things, w【4】 in America, they are often clever people doing clever things and winning at last.
The fact that we l【5】 when other people might feel hopeless is one of the strangest things to learn about British humour. We do have a strong sense of irony (讽刺). After some terrible experience we might say, “Not very 【6】 (please)”. And we might say in the middle of a typhoon. “It’s 【7】 bit windy today.” Or “There is a tiny problem,” when something has gone 【8】 (total) wrong. We don’t like to express strong feelings, but just “keep calm and carry on”.
Another thing that can make it different to u【9】 British humour is that we don’t always laugh or even smile when we say something funny. We often keep a straight face or use an unsmiling expression when we’re making 【10】 (joke).
Do you think the British sense of humour is special?
