5．Economists usually study markets．Now，two Americans have won the Nobel Prize in economics in 2009 for not studying markets．They shared almost one and a half million dollars for their analysis of economic governance．This is the study of how economic activity is governed within companies，communities and other groups．
The winners are Elinor Ostrom of Indiana University in Bloomington and Oliver Williamson of the University of California，Berkeley．The prize in economic sciences has gone to sixty-three men since it was first awarded forty years ago．Elinor Ostrom is the first woman．And，like other winners over the years，her training is not limited to economics．She is a professor of political science and of public and environmental affairs．
Today，economic theory suggests that good resource management requires ownership，either private or public．If not，as the thinking goes，then self-interest will lead to overuse and destruction of shared resources．Garrett Hardin described this idea in 1986 as"the tragedy of the commons"．
Elinor Ostrom showed how local decision making can reduce the tragedy．Her research has deepened understanding of how people balance their needs with those of others who depend on the same resources．She studied communities，like fanners in Southern California who depended on a common water supply．She documented how people who use resources often develop ways to share them．One example is forest management．
Oliver WUliamson has studied big companies and found that they often are better than markets at doing complex jobs．Under his theory，businesses act as structures for conflict resolution （解决） For example，companies that own their suppliers can avoid long-term contracts and quarrel over prices．This can make production more efficient and make better use of limited resources．But businesses can also overuse their power．Professor Williamson says the best way to deal with this is not by limiting the size of companies，but through industry regulation．
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences said economists need to do more than study markets and prices．The Nobel judges urged more research like the kind they recognized with this year's award．

2．Ryan  and Lowry had been friends  since high school，but it wasn't until after college
that they hit on the idea of a home-care-products company．"We were shocked to learn how  toxic  cleaning  products  were，"says  Ryan．  Why  couldn't they  create  green products that would be just as environmentally pure as Aveda's skin-and-hair-care lines？
When Ryan's mom heard about the plan，she stared at him blankly："I've never even seen  you  clean your room!"Not discouraged，Lowry experimented with  nontoxic ways to clean．  while  Ryan  focused on marketing．  In  February 2001，they  mixed their first four   cleaning  sprays  and  convinced the  managers  of  20  grocers to try them•Once  they had their  approval，they tapped  friends  and  family  and pooled their  savings to  come  up  with﹩90，000in seed money．
From the start，"Go big or go home''was their mantra（口头禅）．Their first financing-that﹩l million-was due to be signed on September 11，2001．By the time they got it，two months later，says Ryan，"we had﹩16in the bank and personally owed﹩300，000•"
Seeking a national retailer（零售商）proved just as troublesome．The friends set their sights on Target，known for its trendy，affordable goods．"But Target didn't like the product or the brand，"recalled Ryan．"We thought the deal was dead，but then a new buyer saw that even though we weren't selling big volumes，we were  profitable，just on a smaller scale．"They won over Target．
Consumers  were  hooked  on the  natural things  and  wonderful  fragrance．Today，the partners sell 130products in more than 8，000stores，and taxes are over﹩100million．Such  rapid  growth has  at times  stressed the  men's  friendship．"Eric  and  I  agree on‘what'but  never  on‘how，'"says Lowry．"Although  we  are  willing to  challenge  each  other，we come up with interesting and smarter solutions．There's little fire and ice between us•

9．Chances are you've enjoyed a cup of coffee from Starbucks．Since the opening of the first Starbucks in 1971as a vendor of high-quality coffee beans and brewing equipment，the company has expanded to become the most popular coffeehouse chain in the world．Its 14，000stores in 43countries sell coffee beverages，beans，teas，brewing equipment，pastries，and more．How did this happen？
Starbucks Chairman Howard Schultz took over the company in 1987．He recognized an untapped market in busy individuals in urban areas who could afford fine coffees．In 1995，Schultz hired Anna Niess and Will Chassaing to redesign his booming chain．In addition to laying the groundwork for Starbucks'well-known symbols and distinctive style，they created a program that led to opening one store per day throughout the 1990s．
One thing that makes Starbucks so popular is the company's vision of their stores as a"third place"to spend time in addition to work and home．It's a cozy environment that serves as a meeting place．This attracts a loyal following of customers that come not only to drink coffee，but to relax，work，socialize，and attend cultural events．
Schultz still sees a great deal of potential for his company．Starbucks plans to have 40，000stores worldwide with 20，000in the US and Canada．The company is now a household name around the world．
Howard Schultz is the perfect example of a person living the American dream．After growing up in public housing，he received a football scholarship to Northern Michigan University．This allowed him to become the first in his family to graduate from college in 1975．
Schultz first experienced Starbucks as a salesman for Swedish drip coffeemakers on a trip to visit the Seattle company that had been buying his products．A year later，he joined the company．Conflict arose when Schultz recommended Starbucks sell brewed coffee in addition to beans and equipment．The owners disagreed，and in 1985，Schultz went on to start his own coffee shop，II Giornale．In 1987，the original Starbucks owners sold their company to Schultz，and refocused their attention on selling coffee beans and teas．
Schultz promoted an aggressive expansion of Starbucks throughout the US and Canada．When Starbucks began selling stock shares in 1992，he had already grown the chain to 165stores．Throughout the expansion of Starbucks，Schultz has held strong principles of social responsibility．Starbucks takes good care of its employees with health insurance，stock options （认股权），and stable hours．In fact，under Schultz，Starbucks has been consistently ranked one of the best places to work in the US and UK．
Commitments to environmentalism，fair pay for coffee bean growers，and a positive contribution to society contribute to Schultz's reputation as a truly ethical （道德的） businessman．That means with Schultz in charge of Starbucks，you can enjoy your coffee with a clear conscience．

6．It is found that women's sense of smell is better developed than _____ of men．（　　）

3．High-quality customer service is told by many，but actually keeping customers happy is easier said than done．
Shoppers seldom complain to the manager or owner of retail （零售） store，but instead will alarm their friends，relatives，co-workers，strangers and anyone who will listen．Store managers are often the last to hear complaints，and often find out only when their regular customers decide to frequent their competitors，according to a study jointly conducted by Verde group and Wharton school．"Storytelling hurts retailers and entertains consumers．"Said Paula Courtney，president of the Verde group．"The store loses the customer，but the shopper must also find a replacement．"
On average，every unhappy customer will complain to at least four others，and will no longer visit the specific store．For every dissatisfied customer，a store will lose up to three more due to negative reviews．The resulting"snowball effect"can be disastrous to retailers．
According to the research，shoppers who purchased clothing encountered the most problems．Ranked second and third were grocery and electronics customers．The most common complaints include filled parking lots，messy and overloaded shelves，sold-out items，long check-out lines，and rude salespeople．
During peak shopping hours，some retailers solved the parking problems by getting moonlighting local police to work as parking attendants．Some hired flag wavers to direct customers to empty parking spaces．This guidance got rid of the need for customers to circle the parking lot endlessly，and avoided confrontation between those eyeing the same parking space．
Retailers can relieve the headaches by redesigning store layouts，pre-stocking sales items，hiring speedy and experienced cashiers，and having sales representatives on hand to answer questions．Most importantly，salespeople should be diplomatic and polite with angry customers．
"Retailers who're responsive and friendly are more likely to smooth over problems than those who aren't so friendly．"Said Professor Stephen Hoch．"Maybe something as simple as a greeter at the store entrance would help．"
Customers can also improve future shopping experiences by filing complaints to the retailer，instead of complaining to the rest of the world．Retailers are hard-pressed to improve when they have no idea what is wrong．

32．Why are store managers often the last to hear complaints？C
A．Customers have no easy access to store managers．
B．Few customers believe the service will be improved．
C．Customers would rather relate their unhappy experiences to others．
D．Most customers won't bother to complain about unhappy experiences．
33．Shop owners often hire moonlighting police as parking attendants so that shoppersA．
A．won't have trouble parking their cars
B．won't have any worries about security
C．can find their cars easily after shopping
D．can stay longer looking around in the store
34．What contributes most to smoothing over problems with customers？B
A．Design of the store layout．
B．Manners of the salespeople．
C．Hiring of efficient employees．
D．Huge supply of goods for sale．
35．To achieve better shopping experiences，customers are advised toA．
