Modern businesses have been following his lead, with more tactics（策略）.One tactic involves where to display the goods. For example, stores place fruits and vegetables in the first section. They know that customers who buy the healthy food first will feel happy so that they will buy more junk food（垃圾食品）later in their trip. In department stores,the womens shoe section is generally next to the womens cosmetics(化妆品) section： while the shop assistant is going back to find the right size shoe, bored customers are likely to wander over and find some cosmetics they might want to try later. Besides, businesses seek to appeal to customers senses. Stores notice that the smell of baked goods encourages shopping, they make their own bread each morning and then fan the bread smell into the store throughout the day. Music sells goods, too. Researchers in Britain found that when French music was played, sales of French wines went up. When it comes to the selling of houses, businesses also use highly rewarding tactics. They find that customers make decisions in the first few seconds upon walking in the door, and turn it into a business opportunity. A California builder designed the structure of its houses smartly. When entering the house, the customer would see the Pacific Ocean through the windows, and then the poll through an open stairway leading to the lower level. The instant view of water on both levels helped sell these $10 million houses.1.

Here are some basic table manners for you. The host or hostess takes the first bite unless he or she instructs otherwise. 6 In a group dining situation, it is considered impolite to begin eating before all the group have been served their food and are ready to start. 7 Ask for the items to be passed to you. Diners should pass those items directly to the person who asked. This shows considerations, too. The fork is held with the left hand and the knife held with the right. Eat with a fork unless the food is meant to be eaten with your fingers. Dont pick anything out from your teeth. 8 Chew with your mouth closed. Licking ones fingers and eating slowly can also be considered impolite. Children are often expected to ask permission to leave the table at the end of the meal. In conclusion, we can see table manners are not only about proper eating. 9 A. Different cultures observe different rules.B.Remember to clean around your mouth at times.C.Dont reach over someones plate for something.D.This includes not talking when your mouth is full.E.Its also about being kind and considerate to others.F.The host begins after all food is served and everyone is seated.G.If it bothers you a lot, excuse yourself and go to the bathroom to take it out.5.A 本段是对餐桌礼仪进行整体概括，纵观选项，A“不同的文化有不同的餐桌礼仪”符合语境。6.F 空格前面一句提到，除非（女）主人另有指示，否则由他们开始吃第一口饭，由此可见，此处说的是开饭的场景，F“等所有食物都上齐且所有人已经就坐之后主人就会开始吃饭”符合语境。7.C 空格后面提到，让别人把自己想吃的东西直接递到你面前，而不能越过别人的盘子去取食物，因此选C。8.G 空格前面一句提到，不要剔牙，G“如果嘴里的食物让你不舒服，离开一下，到洗手间再剔牙”紧承上文。9.E 本段总结餐桌礼仪的重要性，由前面一句中的not only可知，此处选E，即“这也与你对别人友好和体贴相关。”.短文改错Students need enough sports and activities to keep fit and relax, in some schools students are not enough time to do outdoor activities.
