spend money bypumping the smell of freshly-baked bread into their stories.Now Dale Air,a leading firm ofaroma(香气)consultants,has been approached by Barclays Bank to develop suitableartificial smells for their banks.Researchers have suggested that surrounding customers withthe*smell if money“will encourage them to feel relaxed and optimistic and give them addedconfidence in the banks security and professionalism.But before a smell can be manufactured and introduced into banks,air conditioningsystems.It must be identified and chemically analyzed,and this has proved to be difficult.The problem is that banknotes-and coins tend to pick up the smell of their surroundings.Socash that has been sitting in a cash register at a fishmongers(鱼贩)will smell of fish,andbanknotes used to pay for meals in restaurants will tend to smell of food.It may be a challenge,but aroma experts have little doubt that the use of artificial smellscan be an effective form of subconscious advertising.Lunn Poly,a British travel company,introduced the smell of coconuts(椰子)into its travel agencies and saw a big increase inspending by holiday makers.Many cafes now have electric dispensers(自动售货机)thatrelease the smell of freshly roasted coffee near their entrances,subtly encouragingcustomers to come in and have a drink or snack.Even prestigious car maker Rolls-Royce hasbeen spraying the inside of its cars to enhance the smell of the leather seats.“The sense of smell is probably the most basic and primitive of all human senses/1explains researcher Jim ORordan.*There is a direct pathway from the olfactory(嗅觉的)organs in the nose to the brain.It is certainly true that most people find certain smellsincredibly strong,stringing memories and feelings in a way that few other stimulants(刺激物)can rival.It is a phenomenon marketing consultants have long recognized,but untilrecently have been unable to harness.Weve made great progress but the technology ofodour production is still in its infancy/*says ORiordan,“Who knows where it will take us.”31.Artificial smells have NOT been used inA cafesB banksC travel agenciesD supermarkets32.Researchers believe that introducing the“smell of money*into banks will encouragepeopleA to spend moneyB to feel confident about banksC to earn more moneyD to withdraw money from banks33.The difficulty of producing the usmell of money lies in thatA peoples attitudes toward money are differentB ifs hard to identify and analyze itC no technology can do itD experts have no motive34.The word harness*1 in the last paragraph is closest in meaning toA seeB studyC controlD understand35.Researchers thinkA artificial smells help to improve peoples memoryB the technology to produce artificial smells is in the early stageC artificial smells are harmfulD the production of artificial smells is profitably第二篇 Spoilt for Choice(A 级)Choice,we are given to1 believe,is a right.In daily life,people have come to expectendless situations about which they are required to make decisions one way or another.Inthe main2,these are just irksome moments at work which demand some extra energy orbrainpower,or during lunch breaks like choosing which type of coffee to order or indeedwhich coffee shop to go to.But sometimes selecting one option as opposed to another canhave serious or lifelong repercussions.More complex decision-making is then either avoided,postponed,or put into the hands of the army of professionals,lifestyle coaches,lawyers,advisors,and the like.waiting to lighten the emotional burden for a fee2.But for a goodmany4 people in the world,in rich and poor countries,choice is a luxury,not a right.And forthose who think they are exercising their right to make choices,the whole system is merelyan illusion,created by companies and advertisers wanting to sell their wares5.The main impact of endless choice in peoples lives is anxiety.Buying something as basicas a coffee pot is not exactly simple.Easy access to a wide range of consumer goods inducesa sense of powerlessness,even paralysis,in many people,ending in the shopper giving upand walking away6,or just buying an unsuitable item that is not really wanted in order tosolve the problem and reduce the unease.Recent surveys in the United Kingdom have shownthat a sizeable proportion of electrical goods bought per household are not really needed.Theadvertisers and the shareholders of the manufacturers are,nonetheless,satisfied.It is not just their availability that is the problem,but the speed with which new versionsof products come on the market.Advances in design and production mean that new items arealmost ready by the time that goods hit the shelves?.Products also need to have a shortlifespan so that the public can be persuaded to replace them within a short time.The classicexample is computers which are almost obsolete once they are bought.At first,there wereonly one or two available from a limited number of manufacturers,but now there are manycompanies all with not only their own products but different versions of the same machine.This makes selection a problem.Gone are the days when one could just walk with ease.intoa shop and buy one things;no choice,no anxiety.The plethora of choice is not limited to consumer items.With the greater mobility ofpeople around the world,people have more choice about where they want to live and work a fairly recent phenomenon.In the past,nations migrated across huge swathes of the earthin search of food,adventure,and more hospitable environments.Whole nations crossedcontinents and changed the face of history,So the mobility of people is nothing new.Thecreation of nation states and borders9 effectively slowed this process down.36.Sometimes people ask professionals to help them make decisions becauseA the decisions may have serious impact on their livesB only professionals have the right to do thatC they have sufficient money to payD they have emotional problems37.When people cannot easily decide what to buy,w
