  Shopping is not as simple as you may think!Much has to be done for the producers before putting the products on the shelf.

  Color, for example, changes a lot according to what the producers are trying to sell.Health foods are packed in greens, yellows or browns because we think of these as healthy colors.

  When some kind of medicine was brought out recently, researchers found that the color of the package(包装)caused the shoppers to lose interest because they made the product look ineffective(无效的).At last, it came on the market in dark blue and white-blue because we think of it as safe, and white as calm.

  The size of a package can also attract(吸引)a shopper, although quite often a bottle doesn't hold as much as it appears to.

  It is said that the better-known companies spend about 40 percent of the cost of the product itself on packaging!

  The most successful producers know that it's not enough to have a good product.The head of Pears Soap, who for 25 years has used pretty little girls to sell their goods, came to the conclusion:“Any fool can make soap, but it takes a talent to sell it.”

  Dear Dad and Mom,

  We have some exciting news for you. Maria is going to have a baby! We didn't tell you right away. At first the doctor said she might have some trouble with the baby. Now he says she is just fine. She's very healthy ahd happy. She still works on har paintings every day. But she stopped teaching art classes. She gets tired more quickly now.

  There is going to be another big change in our lives. We're moving back to New York! We want to be closer to you and to Jane. It's much nicer to be near the family for something important like a baby. Maria grew up in Mexico, and she doesn'tt have a family here. So that makes you even more important to us.

  Maria is a little worried about working in New York. She will have to start again there. In Italy her paintings are already popular. But I'm sure people will like them in New York, too. There won't be any problem with my job. I'm still working for The New York Times. I'll be writing about the United Nations in New York.

  We're planning to move next month. See you then!

Yours,

Tom
