There are thousands of products of all colors and shapes in a supermarket, making you believe that they are worth a try. How? Packaging（包装）is the silent but persuading salesman.
There on the shelves, each bottle, can, box, and jar has been carefully designed and measured to speak to the inner self of the consumer（消费者）, so that he is buying not only a product but also his belief in life. Scientists have studied consumer behavior recently and found that the look of the package has a great effect on the “quality”of the product and on how well it sells, because “Consumers generally cannot tell between a product and its package. Many products are packages and many packages are products,” as Louis Cheskin, the first social scientist studying consumers' feeling for packaging, noticed.
Colors are one of the best tools in packaging. Studies of eye movement have shown that colors draw human attention quickly. Take V8 for example. For many years, the bright red color of tomatoes and carrots on the thin bottle makes you feel that it is very good for your body. And the word “green” today can keep food prices going up.
Shapes are another attraction. Circles often suggest happiness and peacefulness, because these shapes are pleasing to both the eye and the heart. That's why the round yellow M signs of McDonald's are inviting to both young and old.
This new consumer response（反应）to the colors and shapes of packages reminds producers and sellers that people buy to satisfy both body and soul.
(1) According to the passage, ________ seems to be able to persuade a consumer to buy the product.
[ ]
A．the pleasing color of the package
B．the special taste of the product
C．the strange shape of the package
D．the belief in the product
(2) If a package or a product is round in shape, it can ________.
［ ］
A．bring excitement to the consumers
B．attract the consumers' attention
C．catch the eye movement of the consumers
D．produce a happy and peaceful feeling
(3) “And the word 'green' today can keep food prices going up.” This sentence suggests that consumers today are ________.
A．starting to notice the importance of new food
B．enjoying the beauty of nature more than before
C．beginning to like green vegetables
D．paying more attention to their health
(4) It can be inferred from the passage that V8 is a kind of ________.
[ ]

If practicing an attitude of gratitude(感激) during the storms of life is too much for you right now, that’s OK. When things are tough, most people have a hard time being thankful. They’re so caught up in what’s wrong in the present moment that they simply can’t see some things are still right.
If that’s true for you, then accept it. You’re going through a particularly difficult or unhappy period of time, and you don’t like it one bit. Very normal, very human. But remember this: there is always something to be grateful for. It maybe only a small comfort right now, but it is a start. Make a list of some of the terrible things that didn’t happen. For example:
●You’re in debt...but you’re not homeless.
●You lost your job...but you didn’t lose your health.
●You broke your leg...but you didn’t break your neck.
●Your mother has Alzheimer’s disease...but your father doesn’t.
No matter how bad things are, they could always be worse. Start finding gratitude for what might have happened, but didn’t. It does help a lot. Of course, you may not be thankful for everything— but you can always be thankful for something.
