Being in the midst of a pandemic lockdown can make people feel worried. But nothing has shown this panicky behavior more than storing specifically toilet paper.
Seemingly transcending borders and cultures, people from all over the world, including the US, UK and Japan, have been clearing supermarket shelves mainly for this necessity. But what’s the reason for this sudden toilet paper storing? You can understand panic buying food, but do we really need that much toilet paper?
Steven Taylor, author of the book The Psychology of Pandemics, told the Independent that our toilet paper storing is a product of our disgust. During a pandemic, people’s sensitivity to disgust increases, like when you move aside if someone nearby sneezes.
“Disgust is like an alarm … and what better tool for removing disgusting material than toilet paper. I think this is how it became a conditioned symbol of safety,” he said.
Writing for The Conversation, Niki Edwards of The Queensland University of Technology said, “When people hear about the novel coronavirus, they are afraid of losing control. And toilet paper feels like a way to maintain control over health and cleanliness.”
Another one of the most important reasons behind this toilet paper trend, according to the BBC, is the snowball effect. Due to its reports, both in the news and social media, people naturally ask, “Will there be enough toilet paper for my family and me?” This leads to more people following the crowd and buying toilet paper because of their fear of missing out.
“Fear spreads easily. So when you see people around you buying things in a panicky way, it’s going to make you feel more anxious,” wrote American psychologist Baruch Fischhoff for CNBC.
While there are, of course, selfish people who store just because they can, it’s worth keeping things in perspective. Remember, just as countries are cooperating to find a vaccine, we must cooperate to ensure that everyone has their share of necessities.

2.According to Dr Steven Taylor, what does this toilet paper trend result from?

C.The frequent reporting on toilet paper. D.The selfish side of human nature.
3.Whose words are quoted to explain “the snowball effect”?

C.Baruch Fischhoff ‘s D.The author’s
4.What is the author’s purpose in writing this text?
A.To explore the bad effects of the toilet paper trend.
B.To explain why people tend to store pile toilet paper.
C.To criticize those people who store toilet paper.
D.To discuss people’s different attitudes toward the toilet paper trend.
5.Which of the following statement do you think the author will probably NOT agree with?
A.The toilet paper storing can relieve people’s anxiety.
B.It’s selfish of those to store too much toilet paper than they need.
C.Panic buying is quite understandable.
D.It’s better for us to stay calm and reasonable so as not to follow the toilet paper trend.
