【題目】Complete the following passage with the words in the box. Each can be used only once（將下列單詞填入空格。每空格限填一詞, 每詞只能填一次）

A. extra B. shelf C. platform D. depends E. similar

Take a walk through a supermarket. You will find many brands（品牌）of chocolate and a dozen kinds of yoghurt. Which ones should you buy?

Well, the answer 【1】. You may have your favorites. If there is a brand you like more than other brands, you might be willing to pay 【2】 money for it. But when you don't like one brand over another, the right move is to shop for the best price. It means putting one item next to a(n) 【3】 item to see which gives you more for your money. This isn't always easy because of the way things are packaged. To find the best deal, check the unit price. Stores usually show the unit price on the 【4】. If they don't, you can calculate it yourself.

A. compare B. serious C. offer D. responsible E. choice

But unit price isn't the only thing to consider. Ask yourself how much you exactly need. Food waste is a 【5】 problem. According to a research, people throw away up to 40% of the food they buy. So, ask yourself: Do I actually need 8 pieces of bread? If not, the smaller bag is the better 【6】.

Also, brand names come at a cost. Sometimes, what you're paying for isn't just the product in the package. It's the brand name on the package. That's why many stores 【7】 their own products which are usually much cheaper. Last year, some supermarkets did a test. They invited people to try some brand-name cakes and 【8】 them with those made by the supermarkets. To their surprise, most people thought there was not any difference between them .

We might love to tell others about our unusual experiences—that time we climbed Mount Everest, tasted some rare food or ran into a famous person on the street. But new research suggests：that if we s【1】 these unusual experiences with others, it may bring something uncomfortable.

"Unusual experiences are pleasant in the moment but can cause social t【2】 in the long run, "says psychological scientist Gus Cooney of Harvard University. "Some people mistakenly thought that having an unusual experience would make them the star. But they were wrong, because to be unusual is to be different from other people, and social interaction is based on something similar. "

"We all h【3】 to have experiences that are fine and rare, and when we get what we want, we are always eager to tell our friends. But I've noticed that conversations always seem to develop well on more ordinary topics." Cooney explains. " This made me wonder if unusual experiences were r【4】 as lovely as we had thought. "

To find out, Cooney and his colleagues had 68 people come to the lab in groups of f【5】. In each group, one person was asked to watch a popular video of a street magician performing for a crowd, while the other three people were asked to watch an ordinary animated video. After watching the videos, the people sat around a table and had a five-minute free conversation.

After the group discussion, the people who watched the magician's performance felt w【6】 than those who watched the animated video, because they felt they were not included during the discussion.

This finding suggests that we ought to give more thought in choosing what to talk about with others. If an experience turns you into someone who has n【7】 in common with others, then no matter how good it is, it won't make you comfortable in the long run.

【題目】

We see logos on signs, buildings, television, and even on the clothes we wear. Logos are used to stand for brands (品牌). There are logos such as the Nike "swoosh", the Apple logo and the colorful rings of the Olympic Games. All of these logos are designed to attract our attention. They also help us remember a product or service connected to the logo. However, research performed at the University of California, Los Angeles finds that remembering the details of logos is very difficult. The researchers try to explain this.

Logos are typically designed to be simple and easy to recognize. Yet the frequent exposure (頻繁接觸) to these logos can actually make our brains overlook the details of logos. It would be challenging to try to remember every single thing that crosses our path. We take in so much information every day that the brain works to notice information that does not need to be stored. It allows the unimportant information to disappear gradually from our memory.

The details of product logos are just the kind of information our brains tell us we do not need. This may be discouraging to logo designers and to companies that use these eye-catching logos. But there are still many business experts who believe in the importance of a recognizable logo.

Even though the brain is likely to pay no attention to unnecessary details, it is also programmed for recognition. When we see logos over and over again, we become familiar (熟悉) with them. This repeated exposure leads our brains to remember the basic idea without all of the details. This general sense of memory has its own benefits. It can make us feel like we really know the product behind the logo. In fact, familiarity with a logo can even make people feel more comfortable about buying or using certain products.

Logos are everywhere we look today. Those people who create logos need to know that people will only remember what they believe is important. A clever design may be interesting, but most people will forget the details.

【1】In the first paragraph, the writer mainly ________.

A.introduces some famous brandsB.describes the design of some logos

C.shows the popularity of famous brandsD.explains the purpose of designing logos

【2】The word "overlook" in Paragraph 2 probably means "________".

A.try to rememberB.see the importance ofC.take no notice ofD.fail to understand

【3】What can we learn from the passage?

A.Business experts think the details of logos are unnecessary.

B.Our brains can choose which logos to notice and remember.

C.The repeated exposure to a logo can lead people to buy the product.

D.People know more about the products behind logos with more details.

【4】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A.What Makes a Good Logo?B.What Can We See in a Logo?

C.Why Is a Good Logo Important?D.Why Should Logos Be Recognizable?
