Over the past decade, many companies had perfected the art of creating automatic behaviors-habits-among consumers. These habits have helped companies earn billions of dollars when customers eat snacks or wipe counters almost without thinking, often in response to a carefully designed set of daily cues.
"There are fundamental public health problems, like dirty hands instead of a soap habit, that remain killers only because we can't figure out how to change people's habit," said Dr. Curtis, the director the Hygiene Center at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine. " We wanted to learn from private industry how to create new behaviors that happen automatically. "
The companies that Dr. Curtis turned to-Procter & Gamble, Colgate-Palmolive and Unilever-had invested hundreds of millions of dollars finding the subtle cues in consumers' lives that corporations could use to introduce new routines.
If you look hard enough, you'll find that many of the products we use every day-chewing gums, skin moisturizers, disinfecting wipes, air fresheners, water purifiers, health snacks, teeth whiteners, fabric softeners, vitamins are results of manufactured habits. A century ago, few people regularly brushed their teeth multiple times a day. Today, because of shrewd advertising and public health campaigns, many Americans habitually give their pearly whites a cavity- preventing scrub twice a day, often with Colgate, Crest or one of the other brands.
A few decades ago, many people didn't drink water outside of a meal. Then beverage companies started bottling the production of far-off springs, and now office workers unthinkingly sip bottled water all day long. Chewing gum, once bought primarily by adolescent boys, is now featured in commercials as a breath freshener and teeth cleanser for use after a meal. Skin moisturizers are advertised as part of morning beauty rituals, slipped in between hair brushing and putting on makeup.
"Our products succeed when they become part of daily or weekly patterns", said Carol Berning, a consumer psychologist who recently retired from Procter & Gamble, the company that sold $76 billion of Tide, Crest and other products last year. "Creating positive habit is a huge part of improving our consumers' lives, and it's essential to making new products commercially viable. "
Through experiments and observation, social scientists like Dr. Berning have learned that there is power in tying certain behaviors to habitual cues through ruthless advertising. As this new science of habit has emerged, controversies have erupted when the tactics have been used to sell questionable beauty creams or unhealthy foods.
According to Dr. Curtis, habits like hand washing with soap______.
A．should be further cultivated
B．should be changed gradually
C．are deeply rooted in history
D．arc basically private concern

W: Why don't you try house-sitting？ Last summer Cindy was a house sitter for the Smiths when they went away on vacation. They hired Cindy to stay in their house because they didn't want it left empty.
M: You mean they paid Cindy just to live in their house？
W: It wasn't that easy. She had to water the house plants, mow the lawn, and even take care of the pets.
M: I guess it is a little like baby-sitting, except you're taking care of a house instead of children.
W: The student employment office still has a few jobs posted.
M: Do I just have to fill oat an application？
W: You have to have an interview with the homeowner and provide three references at least.
M: That seems like a lot of trouble for a summer job.
W: Well, the homeowner wants some guarantee that they can trust the house sitter. You know they want to make sure you're not the type who'll hold wild parties in their house, or bring a group of friends in with you.
M: I see. House sitters who do that sort of thing probably aren't paid then.
W: Usually they're paid anyway just because the homeowners don't want to make a fuss. But if the homeowner reports it, the house sitter won't be able to get another job easily. So why don't you apply？
M: I think I will. Thank you.

A．They left their pets with neighbors.

Now listen to the interview.
听力原文： Woman: Dr. Mirkin, doctors seem to put a lot of emphasis on exercise. Is exercise really so important to the health of an average person？
Man: Yes, it is. Exercise is important not only for the health of your body, but for your mind.
Woman: How does exercise help one's mind？
Man: A person's mood is helped significantly by exercise. There are many physicians who prescribe exercise for those people who don't feel very good about themselves. Exercise is effective as a tranquilizer. Tests have shown that a 15-minute walk can have a more tranquilizing effect than the most-used tranquilizers on the market today. It has been demonstrated that people who exercise suffer less from anxiety and are able to work harder. Lack of physical fitness is often associated with decreased performance at work or in school. One study showed the 83 percent of the freshmen who flunked out the University of Syracuse were in bad physical shape. Conversely, student at Nathaniel Hawthorne Junior High School in Yonkers, N.Y., who were failing were put into a physical fitness program, and their grades picked up. So did their behavior. Exercise also helps you sleep at night.
Woman: What are the chief physical benefits of exercise？
Man: Physically, the most important value of exercise is the way it trains your heart. Students have shown that people who continue to exercise late into adult life live longer and are less likely to die from heart attacks. This is contrary to what people were taught years ago. But it is not how much exercise you get when you are older that's important. A study showed that Harvard football players died younger, on the average, than their nonathletic counterparts.
Woman: For a person who's not an athlete--and never has been--what kind of exercise should one do in adult life？
Man: The best kind of exercise is one that trains your heart. To do that, you must get your pulse up to 120 beats per minute for at least 30 minutes and at least three times a week. Any sport that doesn't do that doesn't really Wain your heart as it should be trained.
Woman: What do you mean by training the heart？
Man: The heart is like any other muscle--the more your exercise it, the larger and stronger it becomes. A large, strong heart doesn't have to beat as often to do its work, so it will take longer to wear out. There are other benefits to the heart from exercise. A heart attack is usually caused by an obstruction of the blood vessels on the outside of the heart that supply oxygen to the heart muscle. When you exercise regularly at 120 beats a minute, you enlarge those blood vessels. There's a type of fat in the blood called low-density cholesterol that many authorities believe is associated with heart attacks. Exercise lowers the amount of low-density cholesterol. Heart attacks may be associated with stress, and studies show that exercise decreases your feeling of stress. It also lowers blood pressure, which is another risk factor in heart attacks.
Woman: Specially, what exercises are best to train the heart？
Man: The sports that are most highly recommended include bicycling, running, jogging, ice skating, roller skating, jumping rope and cross-country skiing. If you can't go outside, bicycling can be done indoors on a stationary bicycle, and you can do your jogging in place or on a treadmill, qbe bad thing about such stationary exercises is that they can be boring. You should enjoy exercise. But the important thing is to bring your heartbeat up to at least 120 beats a minute. It may su
A．an athlete
B．a journalist
C．a sick man
D．a student

A cover letter is a letter of introduction sent along with a résumé or curriculum vitae (CV). How do you write a successful cover letter？ Bear these points in mind, and you'll always make a great impression.
Keep your cover letter brief and to the point. Writing more than one page is usually unnecessary. If it is sent in an email, writing three short paragraphs is quite sufficient.
Explain why you are sending a résumé. Don't make the reader guess what you are asking for.
Tell specifically how you learned about the position or the organization – a flyer posted in your department, a web site, a family friend who works at the organization, etc.
Convince the reader to look at your résumé. The cover letter will be seen first. Therefore, it must be very well written and targeted to that employer.
Call attention to your background – education, leadership, experience – that is relevant to the position you are seeking.
Provide any information specifically requested in the job advertisement that might not be covered in your résumé, such as availability date, or references.

Why do people shrink？
Did you ever see the movie Honey，I shrunk the kids？ It’s about a wacky dad（who’s also a scientist）wh0 accidentally shrinks his kids with his homemade miniaturizing invention．0ops! ____（1）．
For older people，shrinking isn’t that dramatic or sudden at all． It takes place over years and may add up to only one inch or so off of their adult height（maybe a 1ittle more，maybe less）， and this kind of shrinking can’t be magically reversed，although there are things that can be done to stop it or slow it down．_____（2）．
There are a flew reasons．As people get older，they generally lose some muscle and flat from their bodies as part of the natural aging process．Gravity （the force that keeps your feet on the ground） take hold，and the bones in the spine，called vertebrae，may break down or degenerate，and start to collapse into one another_____ （3）．But perhaps the most common reason why some older people shrink is because
of osteoporosis．
0steoporosis occurs when too much spongy bone tissue（which is found inside of most bones）is broken down and not enough new bone material is made．______（4）． Bones become smaller and weaker and can easily break if someone with osteoporosis is injured． Older people—especially women，who generally have smaller and lighter bones to begin with--are more likely to develop osteoporosis．As years go by，a person with osteoporosis shrinks a little bit．
Did you know that every day you do a shrinking act？ You aren’t as tall at the end of the day as you are at the beginning．That’s because as the day goes on，water in the disks of the spine gets compressed（squeezed）due to gravity，making you just a tiny bit shorter．Don’t worry，though．_____（5）
A．They end up pressing closer together，which makes a person lose a little height and become shorter．
B．0rice you get a good night’s rest，your body recovers，and the next morning，you’re standing tall again． C．0ver time．bone is said to be lost because it’s not being replaced．
D．Luckily，there are things that people cab do to prevent shrinking．
E．The kids spend the rest of the movie as tiny people who are barely Visible while trying to get back to their normal size．
F．But why does shrinking happen at all ？
