单选题Read the following text. Choose the best word or phrase marked A, B, C or D for each numbered blank. One factor that can influence consumers is their mood state. Mood may be defined {{U}} {{U}} 1 {{/U}} {{/U}}a temporary and mild positive or negative feeling that is generalized and not tied {{U}} {{U}} 2 {{/U}} {{/U}}any particular circumstance. Moods should be {{U}} {{U}} 3 {{/U}} {{/U}}from emotions which are usually more intense, {{U}} {{U}} 4 {{/U}} {{/U}}to specific circumstances, and often conscious. {{U}} {{U}} 5 {{/U}} {{/U}}one sense, the effect of a consumer's mood can be thought of in {{U}} {{U}} 6 {{/U}} {{/U}}the same way as can our reactions to the {{U}} {{U}} 7 {{/U}} {{/U}}of our friends—when our friends are happy and "up", that tends to influence us positively, {{U}} {{U}} 8 {{/U}} {{/U}}when they are "down", that can have a {{U}} {{U}} 9 {{/U}} {{/U}}impact on us. Similarly, consumers operating under a {{U}} {{U}} 10 {{/U}} {{/U}}mood state tend to react to stimuli (刺激因素) in a direction {{U}} {{U}} 11 {{/U}} {{/U}}with that mood state. Thus, for example, we should expect to see {{U}} {{U}} 12 {{/U}} {{/U}}in a positive mood state evaluate products in more of a {{U}} {{U}} 13 {{/U}} {{/U}}manner than they would when not in such a state. {{U}} {{U}} 14 {{/U}} {{/U}}, mood states appear capable of {{U}} {{U}} 15 {{/U}} {{/U}}a consumer's memory. Moods appear to be {{U}} {{U}} 16 {{/U}} {{/U}}influenced by marketing techniques. For example, the rhythm, pitch, and {{U}} {{U}} 17 {{/U}} {{/U}}of music has been shown to influence behavior such as the {{U}} {{U}} 18 {{/U}} {{/U}}of time spent in supermarkets or {{U}} {{U}} 19 {{/U}} {{/U}}to purchase products. In addition, advertising can influence consumers' moods which, in {{U}} {{U}} 20 {{/U}} {{/U}}, are capable of influencing consumers' reactions to products.

单选题Opinion polls are now beginning to show an unwilling general agreement that, whoever is to blame and whatever happens from now on, high unemployment is probably here to stay. This means we shall have to find ways of ~sharing the available employment more widely. But we need to go further. We must ask some fundamental questions about the future of work. Should we continue to treat employment as the norm? Should we not create conditions in which many of us can work for ourselves, rather than for an employer? Should we not aim to revive the household and the neighbourhood, as well as the factory and the office, as centres of production and work? The industrial age has been the only period of human history in which most people's work has taken the form of jobs. The industrial age may now be coming to an end, and some of the changes in work patterns which it brought about may have to be reversed. This seems a discouraging thought. But, in fact, it could offer the prospect of a better future for work. Universal employment, as its history shows, has not meant economic freedom. Employment became widespread when the enclosures of the 17th and 18th centuries made many people dependent on paid work by depriving them of the use of the land, and thus of the means to provide a living for themselves. Then the factory system destroyed the cottage industries and removed work from people's homes. Later, as transport improved, first by rail and then by road, people travelled longer distances to their places of employment until, eventually, many people's work lost all connection with their home lives and places in which they lived. Meanwhile, employment put women at a disadvantage. It became customary for the husband to go out paid employment, leaving the unpaid work of the home and family to his wife. All this may now have to change. The time has certainly come to switch some efforts and resources away from the impractical goal of creating jobs for all, to the urgent practical task of helping many people to manage without full-time jobs.
