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

B．make them different from cheaper ones

C．make people think the stickers are for men

D．make people think they could save money

【2】According to the passage, toys for children are usually placed ________.

A．on the lower shelves

B．on the back shelves

C．on the front shelves

D．on the higher shelves

【3】What is the passage mainly about?

A．several rules that every business should follow

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、   Overweight(超重) is one of the biggest health problems now. Being overweight affects more than how you look. Too much fat can kill you. What’s worse, overweight children turn into overweight adults(成人). If you’re obese now, you probably will grow into an obese adult. But here’s good news. You can fight overweight.

Change your eating habits

You are what you eat. Kids like snacks. Did you list any healthy snacks? One study of eating habits showed that soft drinks are the first in the snack list. Next, kids choose salty snacks, like chips. What’s more, the list is full of junk food from No. 3 to No. 11. Finally, No. 12, kids picked a healthy snack — fruit. So, think about your snack choice again.

Get outside to exercise

Jim, a player on his school football team. had a weight problem not long time ago. He could never get anyone to play with him. So his father and he started playing football for a few minutes every night. Ten minutes turned into an hour or more. In just a few years, the heavy kid became athletic, fit and healthy.

More TV means more fat

Nearly every American kid watches TV for 2 hours and 56 minutes every day that adds up to 44 days a year of sitting. More TV(or more Internet surfing, or more computer games) means more fat.

Eat an apple a day, walk around the house, play with your family … Do it today, and do it more tomorrow. It will help you a lot.

【1】According to the passage, kids put ________ at the end of the snack list in one study of eating habits.

A．chips

D．soft drinks

【2】What does the underlined word “obese” mean in Chinese?

23、   Every time when I look at the moon, I wish I could go there. Do you wish you could fly to the moon in a spaceship one day?

For hundreds of years, men have wanted to travel to the moon. When they looked at the moon, they asked many questions, Was the moon hot or cold? Were there any plants or other living things there? There were many, many other questions.

We know much about the moon now. Scientists have studied the moon for many years and have found out many facts. So far, some men have got to the moon on spaceships.

Scientists have found that the moon is much smaller than the earth. It is about one quarter the size of the earth. It is traveling round the earth all the time. There are not any plants or other living things on the moon, because there is no air or water there.

Days and nights on the moon are very long. One day on the moon is as long as two weeks on the earth. One night is also as long as two weeks on the earth. In the day the moon is very hot. At night it is very cold. The moon is much hotter and much colder than the earth.
