Music always interests us. But do you like music that is mainly used in stores? People call it “background music”. Recorded background music first found its way in factories, shops and restaurants in the US, but it soon spread to other parts of the world. Now many stores like to play this kind of music.

Why do they use it? Well, because they want to make customers stay longer. Then customers may buy some goods if they stay longer. In fact, some background music is soft and gentle. However, some background music is too loud. Many shoppers say that they don’t like any background music. When the music is being played, they may get angry at it and they will walk out of the shop as soon as they hear it.

According to a survey, three quarters of shoppers notice the background music when they go into a store. If they like the background music, they will stay longer as a result. They say they will come to the store again. However, fifty percent of shoppers will leave the shop because they don’t like the background music. They even say that they will be less likely to return to the store.

It seems that stores should choose a suitable “sound” for their customers. According to the survey, the suitable background music is a very effective (有效的) way to attract (吸引) more customer’s attention.

To encourage reading, a Chinese company placed over 10,000 books around the underground, in taxis and on planes in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. The activity got the support of many Chinese stars. The “book-dropping movement,” however, won little praise. Instead, the movement caused much criticism(批評).

Some books were left untouched. Around the underground, passengers thought the books were left there to save the seats. Some books were taken away by cleaners. People also complained that they couldn’t get to the books—the trains and buses were too crowded.

The movement led to a hot debate.

Most people thought it could do little to encourage reading. “I think the best result is that people take photos when they pick up the books and write a post in WeChat. After that, they will just bring the books back home and place them on their bookshelves,” wrote one Weibo user.

Some pointed out that, the Chinese stars who supported the movement didn’t seem to be reading much. Isn’t it embarrassing(尷尬) that the movement is supported by stars who don’t read a lot?

Murong Xuecun is a famous Chinese writer. He thought the book-sharing movement was not at all a bad thing. “In the past years, the Chinese economy(經(jīng)濟) has been developing rapidly. Everybody is busy with work. They don’t have time for reading,” said Murong. “However, just because Chinese people don’t read often, it doesn’t mean we should do nothing to encourage reading,” Murong added.

1.What’s purpose of The “book-dropping movement”?

A.To test how much people like reading. B.To encourage people to read.

C.To encourage people to take public transport.

2.What result of “book-dropping movement” isn’t mentioned in the passage?

A.Some books were thought to save the seats.

B.Some books were taken away by cleaners.

C.Some people thought it affected the traffic.

3.The underlined word “debate” means in the passage.

A.風氣 B.爭論 C.興趣

4.The fourth paragraph mainly tells us .

A.“book-dropping battle” works little B.Most people like taking selfies

C.people prefer reading in WeChat.

5.What is Murong Xuecun’s idea about “book-dropping battle”?

A.Book-sharing campaign may improve the economy

B.Chinese people are too busy to read books.

C.We shouldn’t give up encouraging reading,
