第二部分 阅读理解（满分20分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
During this shopping season, salesmen will come up with different strategies to get your business. Many product companies use specific colors to cause positive emotions and compete for a sale. However, sight is not the only sensory (感官的) retail that companies use. Sounds and smells can also influence consumers’ purchasing decisions.
Nobel Prize-winning research shows that our sense of smell has great power to cause an emotional response. A study published earlier this year compared purchasing in a French flower shop when the smell of lavender (薰衣草) was given off and when it wasn’t. It found that the smell increased the number of consumers’ purchasing items and the amount of their purchases. An earlier study using Nike shoes found that consumers desired the shoes more, and were willing to pay more, when the room had a mixed smell of flowers. Realizing the subconscious impact of smell, many stores apply artificial scents (气味) through their heating and air-conditioning vents (通风口) or place scent machines above their doors. For instance, a coconut scent might make that bikini more appealing as you long for a vacation.
Ever felt frenzied due to a store’s fast-paced music? Or calmed by a piece of light music? A retailer’s choice of music can have a big impact on consumers’ moods. One study found that when subjected to loud music, consumers will spend less time in a store. But interestingly, the researchers did not find a difference in sales or customers’ satisfaction. Another interesting finding from a recent study was that customers actually shop longer when exposed to unfamiliar music. Just as department stores use different scents in certain departments, many use different music in some areas to appeal to varying consumers.
Well, you could always leave the store and take a break, but the food court probably isn’t your best choices as brands like Cinnabon and Panera Bread also use scents as part of their customers’ experience. Online retailers (零售商) use a variety of other strategies to get your business, but you can always neglect those and enjoy the familiar scents of home.
1、The passage is mainly about ________.
A．consumers’ favorite sounds and smells while shopping
B．shopping malls’ strategies for satisfying consumers
C．some special services from super shopping malls
D．two factors affecting consumers’ shopping decisions
2、What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?
A．Decorating stores with flowers becomes a fashion.
B．Shops with special smells can attract more consumers.
C．Smells can actually help businessmen gain more profits.
D．The products with a kind of special smell are more popular.
3、How does music have an effect on consumers?
A．It controls consumers’ desire for shopping.
B．It influences how long consumers stay in a shop.
C．It gives consumers the satisfaction of enjoying shopping.
D．Whether consumers are willing to buy things depends on it.
4、Which of the following can replace the underlined word “frenzied” in Paragraph 3?
A．Satisfied. B．Depressed.
C．Surprised. D．Excited.
5、What does the writer try to express in the last paragraph?
A．Online shopping is becoming more and more popular nowadays.
B．People should spend more time at home with family members.
C．People can choose to get rid of salesmen’s promotion strategies.
D．Smells and sounds are important for consumers’ shopping experience.

B
After shopping for deals in stores on “Black Friday”, or online on “Cyber Monday”, Americans and people worldwide are preparing for newly popular “Giving Tuesday”. Starting in 2012, now the global event that is celebrated annually on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving is the brainchild of 92nd Street Y, a cultural center in New York City and the United Nations Foundation.
As the name indicates, Giving Tuesday is meant to restart the charitable season and therefore observed by raising funds for local nonprofits and schools, organizing food and clothing drives, and conducting random acts of kindness. In 2015, 700,000 people from 71 countries came together to donate $116.7 million in cash. An additional $1.08 million was spent on gifts.
While the easiest way to participate is by donating to your favorite charity, this day can be celebrated in many other ways too. You can give back by volunteering at your local shelter or food bank, or even by donating blood. If all else fails, a purchase from the growing number of organizations that give a portion of their sales to charity will do the trick.
But perhaps the best way to celebrate the day is by helping those nearest and dearest to you. Assist a family member with a simple chore like folding laundry, cooking dinner, or even reading to a younger sibling. No matter what you do, be sure to share your good deed on social media and inspire others to celebrate Giving Tuesday as well!
1、Which of the following has the shortest history?
A．Giving Tuesday. B．Black Friday.
C．Thanksgiving Day. D．Cyber Monday.
2、What’s the main purpose of “Giving Tuesday”?
A．To make Thanksgiving Day enjoyable.
B．To encourage more people to do charities.
C．To get voluntary work better known.
D．To persuade more people to shop online.
3、Why does the author advise sharing good deeds on social media?
A．To keep a record of one’s experience.
B．To help people make new friends.
C．To make Giving Tuesday more popular.
D．To donate money to local schools.
4、Which section of a website does the text probably come from?
A．Lifestyle. B．Education.
C．Culture. D．Business.
