　　There are thousands of products of all colors and shapes in a supermarket, making you believe that they are worth a try. How? Packaging（包裝）is the silent but persuading salesman.

　　There on the shelves, each bottle, can, box, and jar has been carefully designed and measured to speak to the inner self of the consumer（消費(fèi)者）, so that he is buying not only a product but also his belief in life. Scientists have studied consumer behavior recently and found that the look of the package has a great effect on the “quality”of the product and on how well it sells, because “Consumers generally cannot tell between a product and its package. Many products are packages and many packages are products,” as Louis Cheskin, the first social scientist studying consumers' feeling for packaging, noticed.

　　Colors are one of the best tools in packaging. Studies of eye movement have shown that colors draw human attention quickly. Take V8 for example. For many years, the bright red color of tomatoes and carrots on the thin bottle makes you feel that it is very good for your body. And the word “green” today can keep food prices going up.

　　Shapes are another attraction. Circles often suggest happiness and peacefulness, because these shapes are pleasing to both the eye and the heart. That's why the round yellow M signs of McDonald's are inviting to both young and old.

　　This new consumer response（反應(yīng)）to the colors and shapes of packages reminds producers and sellers that people buy to satisfy both body and soul.

(1) According to the passage, ________ seems to be able to persuade a consumer to buy the product.

[　　]

A．the pleasing color of the package

B．the special taste of the product

C．the strange shape of the package

D．the belief in the product

(2) If a package or a product is round in shape, it can ________.

［　　］

A．bring excitement to the consumers

B．a(chǎn)ttract the consumers' attention

C．catch the eye movement of the consumers

D．produce a happy and peaceful feeling

(3) “And the word 'green' today can keep food prices going up.” This sentence suggests that consumers today are ________.

A．starting to notice the importance of new food

B．enjoying the beauty of nature more than before

C．beginning to like green vegetables

D．paying more attention to their health

(4) It can be inferred from the passage that V8 is a kind of ________.

[　　]

A．vegetable dish
B．healthy juice
C．iced drink
D．red vegetable

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來源：2011-2012學(xué)年江蘇省淮安市金湖二中高一下學(xué)期第一次過關(guān)練習(xí)英語(yǔ)試卷 題型：閱讀理解

Sometimes people add to what they say even when they don’t talk. Gestures are the “silent language” of every culture. We point a finger or move another part of the body to show what we want to say．It is important to know the body language of every country or we may be misunderstood.
In the United States，people greet each other with a handshake in a formal introduction．The handshake must be firm．If the handshake is weak，it is a sign of weakness or unfriendliness．Friends may place a hand on the other’s arm or shoulder．Some people，usually women，greet a friend with a hug（擁抱）．
Space is important to Americans．When two people talk to each other，they usually stand about two and a half feet away and at an angle，so they are not facing each other directly．Americans get uncomfortable when a person stands too close．They will move back to have their space．If Americans touch another person by accident，they say “Pardon me” or “Excuse me”．
Americans like to look at the other person in the eyes when they are talking．If you don’t do so，it means you are bored，hiding something，or are not interested．But when you stare at someone，it is not polite．
For Americans，thumbs-up means yes，very good，or well done．Thumbs-down means the opposite．To call a waiter，raise one hand to head level or above．To show you want the check，make a movement with your hands as if you are signing a piece of paper．It is all right to point at things but not at people with the hand and index finger（食指）．Americans shake their index finger at children when they scold them and pat them on the head when they admire them．
Learning a culture’s body language is sometimes confusing（使糊涂的）．If you don’t know what to do，the safest thing to do is to smile．
【小題1】From the first paragraph we can learn that ________．

A．gestures don’t mean anything while talking
B．gestures can help us to express ourselves
C．we can learn a language well without body language
D．only American people can use gestures

If you hear the sound of running water the next time you call a co-worker on his or her mobile phone, don’t be surprised. Three-fourths of Americans with mobile phones say they use them in the bathroom, a new study shows.

Approximately(大約) the same number of men and women have used the phone in the bathroom, according to a survey of 1,000 Americans by 11 mark, an integrated marketing agency, although men seem more attached to IT in the toilet: 30 percent of men versus(VS) 20 percent of women agreed with the statement, "I don't go to the bathroom without my mobile phone."

More than half the surveyed users (63 percent) said they have answered a phone call in the bathroom, and almost half (41 percent) reported initiating a phone call. That's not all, however. What goes on behind the walls of the stalls(小隔間) is anything a mobile phone is capable of. Sixty-seven percent said they have read a text, and 39 percent have surfed the Web. Men work more from the bathroom — 20 percent said they have participated in work-related calls, versus 13 percent of their female colleagues.

As expected, Gen Y(1981年后出生的一代) respondents(調(diào)查對(duì)象) are the pacesetters(先導(dǎo)者) in the "mobile everywhere" movement, with 91 percent using their phone in the bathroom. Still, older generations are not far behind. Eighty percent of Gen X(1961-1981) reported using the phone in the bathroom, as did 65 percent of Baby Boomers(1946-1965) and 47 percent of the Silent Generation(1925-1945).

While online, they are doing more than just surfing; 16 percent of Gen Y report they have made an online purchase while in the bathroom. Users of iPhones are particularly likely to browse and buy in the bathroom – 22 percent have made a purchase, versus 10 percent of Americans with mobile phones overall.

"The writing is on the stall," said 11 mark principal Nicole Burdette. "This study confirms what we all know: that the last private place is no longer private."

In the process, high-tech hygiene(衛(wèi)生) is taking a hit, the survey found. While 92 percent of mobile phone users said they wash their hands after using the bathroom, only 14 percent said they wash their phones.

1.Which is the best word to replace the underlined word "initiating"?

A. receiving   B. experiencing        C. ending              D. beginning

2.According to his words, Nicole Burdette mainly wants to tell us that       .

A. no wonder mobile phones are used in the bathroom

B. the bathroom is a private place for people

C. it makes people have no privacy at all

D. more men have used the phone in the bathroom

3.What does the last paragraph of the passage imply?

A. Using phones in the bathroom has a bad effect on hygiene

B. Mobile phones should not be allowed to use in the bathroom

C. Most people care about the hygiene after using the bathroom

D. Few people wash their phones after using the bathroom

4.The attitude of the author to the use of phones in the bathroom is ______

A. supportive                  B. disapproval                  C. subjective          D. objective
