13、 the worldit affects where we choose to love, what we wear, our moods, and perhaps even our national characteristics. Studies have shown the changeable weather can make it difficult to concentrate, cloudy skies slow sown reaction, and high humidity with hot, dry winds makes many people bad-tempered.

14、If you live in a place like Britain, where the weather seems to change daily if not hourly, you could be forgiven for thinking that the weather is random. In fact, the weather is controlled by systems which move around areas of the globe. In the UK the weather depends on depressions（低气压）, often call

15、ed lows, and anticyclones（高气压）, also known as highs. These systems start in the Atlantic Ocean, and make their way across the British Isles from the west to the east. Highs bring sunny weather, while lows bring rain and wind. In modern times, human activities seem to be altering weather patterns. Ga

16、ses produced by heavy industry change the temperature of the Earths surface, and affect cloud formation. Some researchers say that factories in Europe and North America may have been one of the causes of the droughts in Africa in the 1980s.The human race has always tied to guess the weather, especia

17、lly in areas of the world where there are frequent changes. Traditional rhymes point to early attempts to identify weather patterns, popular poems include:Red sky at night, shepherds delight; red sky in the morning, shepherds warning.Flies will swarm before a storm.Rain before 7, clear by 11.While f

18、olk wisdom can still provide a guide to help forecast weather, todays methods of prediction increasingly rely on technology. Satellites, balloons, ships, aircrafts and weather centers with sensitive monitoring equipment, send data to computers. The date is them processed, and the weather is predicte

19、d. However, even this system cannot predict weather for longer than about a week.26When weather keeps changing, . Apeople become bad-tempered Bpeoples reaction slows down Cpeople find it hard to focus on their work Dpeople become hungrier27What is mainly talked about in the second paragraph? AChange

Arandom Bmoist Cdepressing Dsatisfying29According to a traditional rhyme, if there is red sky at night, the next day will be . Awindy Brainy Cfine Dsnowy30Which of the following statements in tru

21、e? AAnticyclones often bring rain and wind. BWeather forecasting has been done for a long time. CWeather could never be predicted. DModern methods of weather prediction are developed from folk wisdom.BWhat do consumers really want? Thats a question market researchers would love to answer. But since

22、people dont always say what they think, marketers would need direct access to consumers thoughts to get the truth.And now, in a way, that is possibleAt the “Mind of the Market” laboratory at Harvard Business School, researchers are looking inside shoppers skulls to develop more effective advertiseme

23、nts and marketing stylesUsing imaging techniques that measure blood flow to various parts of the brain, the Harvard team hopes to predict how consumers will react to particular products and to discover the most effective ways to present informationStephen Kosslyn, a professor of psychology at Harvar

24、d, and business school professor Gerald Zaltman, oversee the lab“The goal is not to influence peoples preferences,” says Kosslyn, “just to speak to their actual desires. The groups findings, though still preliminary (初步的), could change how firms develop and market new productsThe Harvard group use p

25、osition emission tomography (PET) scans to monitor the brain activityThese PET scans, along with other imaging techniques, enable researchers to see which parts of the brain are active during specific tasks(such as remembering a word).Correlations (相互关系) have been found between blood flow to specifi

26、c areas and future behaviorBecause of this, Harvard researchers believe the scans can also predict future purchasing patternsAccording to an unpublished paper the group produced, “It is possible to use these techniques to predict not only whether people will remember and have specific emotional reac

27、tions to certain materials, but also whether they tend to want those materials months later.”The Harvard group is now moving into the next stage of experimentsThey will explore how people remember advertisements as part of an effort to predict how they will react to a product after having seen an ad

28、The researchers believe that once key areas of the brain are identified, scans on about two dozen volunteers will be enough to draw conclusions about the reactions of specific sections of the populationLarge corporations-including Coca Cola, Eastman Kodak, General Motors, and Hallmark-have already s

29、igned up to fund further investigations. For their financial support, these firms gain access to the experiments but cannot control themIf Kosslyn and Zahman and their team really can read the mind of the market, then consumers may find it even harder to get those advertising jingles-out of their he

BInfluencing the Customers Choice.CInfluencing the Style of AdvertisingDExperimenting with the Way to Foretell32Why do the Harvard researchers use scientific technology in the experiments?

31、ABecause they want to find a better way to persuade people into purchasing patterns in the future in the different market.BBecause they dont trust the findings already done by other researchers.CBecause they want to see how particular products can influence consumers and find out the most effective ways to advertise.DBecause they think the marketing strategies can actually be changed after the experiments.33The following statements are true except that APeople sometimes hide their true feelings when questioned by the marketing surveyors.
