Is there something strange high up in the world’s tallest mountains?If so, is it a big bear?Is it a monkey? Or is it a kind of man?

No one knows. This mystery has puzzled the world for years. In 1887, a mountain climber found large footprints in the snow.

They looked like the footprints of a very large man. But men don’t walk without shoes in the snow.

In 1906, another climber saw more footprints. Far off, he saw a very large animal standing on two legs. As he watched, it ran very quickly.

Fifteen years later, newspapers had new stories about the “something”. A mountain climber said he had seen the“snow man” walk slowly across the snow, far below him. He said it looked like a very large man.

From then on,more and more people had stories to tell. But not until 1951 did a mountain climber bring back pictures of large footprints. The pictures showed clearly that the Snowman walked on two legs. So it was not a bear or a monkey. Could it be an ape(猿) man?

The mystery grew!And the mystery keeps growing. Someday we may find out just what it is that makes the large footprints.

Ever wondered why fresh fruits and vegetables are the first thing you see in stores or why the bread and milk are so far away? Supermarkets spend millions of dollars researching consumer(消费者) behaviour in order to develop ways to make you buy more in their stores.

CHOICE magazine takes a look at some of the more common tricks to help you avoid spending more money next time you go shopping.

Experts say turning to the right when you walk into a shop is connected with most people’s preference for using their right hand.

Dr Paul Harrison, expert at Deakin University, says a store’s entry(入口) is not the only important point.“Research in the US has shown that shoppers who travel in an anti-clockwise(逆时针方向的) direction will spend about two dollars more per trip than clockwise shoppers.”

Research made on shoppers’ in-store movements suggests people travel to some aisles(过道) only. The most common trip to travel in stores is around the outside circle, walking in and out of the aisles as needed. As a result, the ends of each aisle are where the store makes the most money.

When you enter a big supermarket fresh fruits and vegetables are in the first shopping area. Although it’s not wise to first put fruits and vegetables into your shopping basket, this department is set to make the shoppers feel that it’s fresh and healthy. People who use the fresh food areas are also likely to spend more money in the store.

By setting up different “marketplace” areas, it feels as though we’ve visited several different stores where we can get everything we need rather than a single big shop. Each of these areas has different lighting and floor coverings.“It’s all about creating a market-like feel,” says Harrison.“Areas making and selling bread, apart from smelling good, give the impression that the supermarket can be trusted. It’s like they’re saying, ‘You can trust us because we make food.’”

【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了超市商品摆放的一些策略。 4.Why do people turn to the right when entering a shop? A.People are mostly right-handed. B.It’s easier for them to walk in a circle. C.Fresh food is often placed on the right. D.Shopping baskets are usually on the right.

A 解析:细节理解题。由第三段中的“turning to the right when you walk into a shop is connected with most people’s preference for using their right hand”可知,人们习惯往右走是因为习惯用右手。

5.What does the research in the US find? A.Most shoppers walk anti-clockwise. B.Clockwise walkers are often big shoppers. C.A store’s entry is the most important point. D.Walking directions influence consuming behaviour.

D 解析:推理判断题。由第四段中的“shoppers who travel in an anti-clockwise(逆时针方向的) direction will spend about two dollars more per trip than clockwise shoppers”可知,沿逆时针方向走的顾客比沿顺时针方向走的顾客花钱多,即行走方向影响消费额度。

6.As for aisles, what do supermarket managers most care about? A.The ends. C.How long they are.

B.The middle. D.How wide they are.

A 解析:细节理解题。由第五段中的“As a result, the ends of each aisle are where the store makes the most money.”可知,过道的两端是最佳盈利点,因此是超市管理者最关注的地方。

7.What impression does a supermarket try to give shoppers by making each area different? A.It is fresh. B.It is healthy. C.It covers a big area. D.It offers a wide choice.

D 解析:细节理解题。由最后一段中的“it feels as though we’ve visited several different stores where we can get everything we need”可知,区域划分的主要目的是让大家感觉身处不同的商店,各类商品应有尽有。
