In our modern society, we have to rely on different kinds of services. 1________.Without packaging, many goods, especially food, could not reach consumers. Packaging prevents perishable(易坏的) food from early rot. As a result , it makes shelf life longer and makes distribution possible to a greater distance .
The function of waste reduction is also evident in food packaging. According to a scientific report, food wastage can be as high as between 20% and 50% in some areas because of poor or lack of packaging . 2________.It is estimated that for every 1% increase in packaging materials ,food wastage decreases by about 1.6%.
Apart from practical functions, modern packaging also has aesthetic(美学的) value. 3_______.And for the consumers, this makes shopping more enjoyable.
4________.Sometimes, people cannot help but feel puzzled by the huge packaging of some goods, which often prove to have nothing to do at all with the protection of the goods inside. Such packaging can only lead to misunderstanding and waste of money of the part of the comsumers. 5_______
Perhaps it is difficult to decide whether the service of packaging has more advantages or disadvantages. It seems quite obvious that modern packaging , to a certain degree, reflects the inner quality of the people or company who produce the products.
A. Appropriate packaging can cut this number down to only 2 to 3%.
B. Packaging is just one of them.
C.Goods are made more attractive and inviting.
D. People are sometimes unwilling to spend more money on packaging.
E. And more seriously, it can cause a great deal of damage to the environment.

Fear and its companion pain are two of the most useful things that men and animals possess, if they are properly used. If fire did not hurt when it burnt, children would play with it until their hands were burnt away. Similarly, if pain existed but fear didn’t, a child would burn himself or herself again and again, because fear would not warn himself or herself to keep away from the fire that had burnt himself or herself before. A really fearless soldier—and some do exist is not a good soldier because he is soon killed; and a dead soldier is of no use to his army. Fear and pain are therefore two guards without which men and animals might soon die out.
In our first sentence we suggested that fear should be properly used. If, for example, you never go out of your house because of the danger of being knocked down and killed in the street by a car, you are letting fear rule you too much. Even in your house you are not absolutely safe: an aeroplane may crash on your house, or ants may eat away some of the beams in your roof so that the latter falls on you, or you may get cancer!
The important thing is not to let fear rule you, but instead to use fear as your servant and guide. Fear will warn you of dangers; then you have to decide what action to take.
In many cases, you can take quick and successful action to avoid the danger. For example, you see a car coming straight towards you. Fear warns you, you jump out of the way, and all is well.
In some cases, however, you decide that there is nothing that you can do to avoid the danger. For example, you can’t prevent an aeroplane crashing onto your house. In this case, fear has given you its warning; you have examined it and decided on your course of action, so fear of this particular danger is no longer of any use to you, and you have to try to overcome it.
