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.” Health foods are usually packed in colors Except ________.

Although the idea seems a little unrealistic （不现实的），it is necessary．According to a new report，American people produce the largest amount of the litter in the world．Each person produces almost 4.6pounds of litter every day．More than half of the litter which is put into landfills is harmful．Actually，this is bad for the environment．Besides this，more landfills（填埋场） are needed．

Wechat is popular among us，but if someone deletes you or blocks（屏蔽）you on it，does it mean you've made him or her angry？
It depends．
Maybe you have just left messages too often without much valuable information．For example，the questions are those like "how are u？""what are u doing？""do u love me？？"too often．You know，people may feel bored after answering such kinds of questions time after time．
Another possible reason may be that you've sent something unpleasant to your friend or in your friend circle．I just blocked one of my middle school classmates yesterday because she was trying to sell fake goods in the friend circle，and I hate it quite much．
Some people delete the one's name from friends' list because they no longer want to see it （maybe ex﹣boyfriend or ex﹣girlfriend）and they don't want the one to see their "Moments"（动态） on WeChat （maybe they publish very private pictures or life or thoughts they don't want to share with him or her．）
So why you are blocked may depend on his or her mood or preference （喜好），and the reasons a person gets blocked are various from person to person．So I suggest you to write an email or make a phone call to that person if he or she really means a lot to you to see why he or she is dissatisfied with you，and to find out how you can make up for the case．
（1）From paragraph 3，we can know if you are blocked that is because ．
A．you are asking too many boring questions
B．your friend is angry
C．your friend doesn't like answering questions
D．your friend has no time to reply
