Dear Mike,
Thank you for your e-mail. I am glad tell you something about our English Club, which is set up by the Student Union last year.

This Is How You Become Unattractive And You’re Not Aware of It
There are many behaviors or “bad habits” that make people seem unattractive, annoying.
1. If you happen to realize that you have any of them—quit!
1. You are self-absorbed
Many people do this without realizing it. You focus solely on yourself, talk only about yourself, and often don’t care what others around you have to say. You think you’re the only one that matters. If this is you, it’s time to change. 2.
2. You are the boss
3. If you’re the one always making decisions, constantly needing to be in charge, or trying to control what others are doing, you’re acting in an unattractive way.
3. You are always in competition
Are you the person who has to be better than everyone else? If so, you’re an unattractive person. 4. If they overcame their fear of heights and climbed 10 feet in the air, don’t say, “That’s all? I’ve climbed 30 feet!” Instead, you should say, “Wow! That’s awesome. I’m really proud of you.”
4. You are always negative
5. If you’ re constantly putting things down, or seeing situations in a negative light, try and change your attitude. Nobody wants to be friends with someone who’s constantly seeing the negative instead of the positive.
A.You should care more about others, and let them have their moment.
B.You focus on outer beauty, ignoring what’s inside.
C.A few of these unappealing characteristics are listed below.
D.In a group of friends, everyone should be on an equal playing field.
E.People who are seen as unattractive are often argumentive.
F.No one wants to be friend with someone who only cares about himself.
G.Pessimism is not an attractive quality.
You need some bread and milk. But half an hour later, you leave the supermarket with a trolley (手推车) full of food. What games do supermarkets play to make us spend so much money?
The tricks start just when you go into the supermarkets and, of course, a small basket would be fine, but all they have are trolleys. And of course the problem with a trolley is that it looks sad and lonely with just one or two products inside. So we may fill it with something. In fact, supermarket trolleys are actually getting bigger so that we buy more.
Of course, many people shop in supermarkets because they think everything is cheaper than in other shops. So supermarkets offer very cheap prices on some things but then have higher prices for other products. One new trick is to put red stickers (标签) on products. Customers usually connect red stickers with lower prices so the red stickers are easy to be noticed, even when there is no reduction! Interestingly, this trick appears to work more with men than with women.
There is a story behind the position of everything in the supermarket. For example, customers often go only to buy milk. So they put it right at the back, forcing you to go past hundreds of shelves full of other products. The position of products on each shelf is also important. The most expensive products are usually at eye-level so you see these immediately. The exception is anything that children might like. These products are on lower shelves so that kids see them.
Apart from what you see and smell in a supermarket, what about what you listen to? In most supermarkets they have soft, slow music. It’s so relaxing that you slow down and spend more time (and money) in the store. You also move more slowly when the supermarket is busy. Experts suggest it’s better to shop when it’s quieter, on a Monday or a Tuesday for example. And be careful with queues at the checkouts. These are sometimes deliberate, to make you buy something from the checkout shelves while you wait.
So, next time you go into your local supermarket, remember these tricks and see if you can come with just the things you went for.
1.Supermarkets provide trolleys instead of small baskets because ________.
A.trolleys can help customers move quickly and save time
B.baskets can hold only one or two products inside
C.it is inconvenient for customers to use baskets
D.trolleys are bigger so that customers can buy more
2.What’s the main purpose of putting red stickers on some products?
A.To attract customers and mislead them into thinking those goods are cheaper.
B.To tell the men customers those goods are especially made for them.
C.To remind customers those products are bargain goods.
D.To make them look fresher and more beautiful.
3.Where are the most expensive products usually put in the supermarkets?
A.Right at the back of the supermarkets.
B.At the entrance to the supermarkets.
C.On lower shelves where kids can get them easily.
D.On eye-level shelves where customers can see them immediately.
4.We can learn from Para. 5 that supermarkets usually ________.
A.stop people lining up at the checkouts
B.make customers spend more money by playing relaxing music
C.have no customers on Mondays and Tuesdays
D.force customers to buy something from the checkout shelves
