25、en a trip to the supermarket in the United States often ended with a seemingly simple question from the cashier: “Paper or plastic? Well, which type of bag would you choose?While all types of bags have some influence on the environment, it has long been supposed that paper bags are kinder. They are

26、made from a renewable source, break down easily, burn without giving off thick smoke and can be recycled. However, the producing process behind paper bags uses more energy than that of plastic ones. How can this be true?Studies show that paper bag production requires four times as much energy as pla

27、stic bag production. And the amount of water used to make them is twenty times higher. Besides, the influence on forests is very serious. It takes about fourteen million trees to produce ten billion paper bags, which happens to be the number of bags used in the United States yearly. In terms of recy

28、cling, the idea that paper bags are more environment-friendly than plastic ones can be quickly discarded.

34、ntly trust us if we choose the same dishes as them.During experiments, discussions over wages and work conditions were much more successful if both sides chose to snack on the same treats. And shoppers were much more likely to buy a product advertised on TV by someone eating a similar food to them a

It means people can immediately begin to feel friendship and develop a bond, leading to smoother transactions from the start.Harley Street psychologist Dr Lucy Atcheson said it was already known that wearing si

39、milar clothes could instantly create trust. But this was the first report that food had the same effect. She said, This is really interesting. It makes sense as people feel they have common ground and can trust the other person. That means negotiations are more likely to be successful.32.According t
