The manufacturer who increases the unit price of his product by changing his package size to lower the quantity delivered can, without undue hardship, put his product into boxes, hags, and tins that will contain even 4-ounce, 8 ounce, one-pound, two-pound quantities of break fast foods, cake mixes, etc. A study of drugstore and supermarket shelves will convince any observer that all possible sizes and shapes of boxes, jars, bottles, and tins are in use at the same time, and, as the package journals show, week by week, there is never any hesitation in introducing a new size and shape of box or bottle when it aids in product differentiation. The producers of packaged products argue strongly against changing sizes of packages to contain even weights and volumes, but no one in the trade comments unfavorably on the huge costs incurred by end less changes of package sizes, materials, shape, art work, and net weights that are used for improving a product's market position.
When a packaging expert explained that he was able to multiply the price of hard sweets by 2.5, from $ 1 to $2.50 by changing to a fancy jar, or that he had made a 5-ounce bottle look as though it held 8 ounces, he was in effect telling the public that packaging can be a very ex pensive luxury, h evidently does come high, when an average family pays about $ 200 a year for bottles, cans, boxes, jars and other containers, most of which can't be used for anything but stuffing the garbage can.

D．The rise in the unit price for many products.
听力原文： It is said that the public and Congressional concern about deceptive packaging rumpus started because Senator Hart discovered that the boxes of cereals consumed by him, Mrs. Hart, and their children were becoming higher and narrower, with a decline of net weight from 12 to 10.5 ounces, without any reduction in price. There were still twelve biscuits, but they had been reduced in size. Later, the senator rightly complained of a store bought pie in a handsomely illustrated box that pictured, in a single slice, almost as many cherries as there were in the whole pie.

Amongst them—though all were delightful—there were two who especially riveted my attention. The first of these two was the tallest of all the children, a dark thin girl, in whose every expression and movement there was a kind of grave, fiery love.
During one of the many dances, it fell to her to be the pursuer of a fair child, whose movements had a very strange soft charm; and this chase, which was like the hovering of a dragonfly round some water lily, or the wooing of a moonbeam by the June night, had in it a most magical sweet passion. That dark, tender huntress, so full of fire and yearning, had the queerest power of symbolising all longing, and moving one’s heart In her, pursuing her white love with such wistful fervour, and ever arrested at the very moment of conquest, one seemed to see the great secret force that hunts through the world, on and on, tragically unresting, immortally sweet.
The other child who particularly enhanced me was the smallest but one, a brown-haired fairy crowned with a haft moon of white flowers, who wore a scanty little rose-petal-coloured shift that floated about her in the most delightful fashion. She danced as never child danced. Every inch of her small bead and body was full of the sacred fire of motion; and in her little pas seul she seemed to be the very spirit of movement. One felt that Joy had flown down, and was inhabiting there; one heard the rippling of Joy’s laughter. And, indeed, through all the theatre had risen a rustling and whispering; and sudden bursts of laughing rapture.
I looked at my friend; he was trying stealthily to remove something from his eyes with a finger. And to myself the stage seemed very misty, and all things in the world lovable; as though that dancing fairy had touched them with tender fire, and made them golden.
God knows where she got that power of bringing joy to our dry hearts: God knows how long she will keep it! But that little flying Love had in her the quality that lie deep in colour, in music, in the wind, and the sun, and in certain great works of art—the power to see the heart free from every barrier, and flood it with delight.
From this passage, it can be inferred that
A．the dancing girls are an very beautiful.
B．the girls come from all over the world.
C．the two tallest girls are the outstanding dancers.
D．the girls' performance is very successful.
Total consumption in real terms rose by close on 11% during 1964, and per capital personal consumption by under 7%, as in 1963. The undesirable trend towards a rapid rise in consumption, evident in previous years, remained unaltered. Since at current prices consumption rose by 16% and disposable income by 13%, there was evidently a fall in the rate of saving in the private sector of the economy. Once again consumption patterns indicated a swift advance in the standard of living. Expenditure on food declined in significance, although consumption of fruit increased. Spending on furniture and household equipment, health, education and recreation continued to increase. The greatest proof of altered living standards was the rapid expansion of expenditure on transport (including private cars) and personal services of all kinds, which occurred during 1964. The progressive wealth of large sectors of the public was demonstrated by the changing composition of durable goods purchased. Saturation(饱和) point was rapidly being approached for items such as the first household radio, gas cookers, and electric refrigerators, whereas increasing purchases of automobiles and television sets Were registered.
The author thinks that the trend towards a rapid rise in consumption was "undesirable" because______.
A．people saved less
B．people were wealthy
C．people consumed less
D．expenditures on luxuries in creased
根据以下内容回答题：
No one knows for sure why birds migrate．One theory of migration says that ancient birds of the northern part of the earth were forced southward during the Ice Age，when ice covered large parts of Europe，Asia and North America．As the ice melted，the birds came back to their homelands，spent the summer，and then went south again in winter．Gradually，these comings and goings became habits，and birds now migrate though much of the ice has gone． Another theory proposes that the ancient home of all modern birds was the tropic areas．There lived so well that the region became overcrowded．Many species had to move northward．During the summer，these birds found plenty of room and food．In winter，however，food be-came scarce and they had to return to the south． A newer theory is that increasing daylight stimulates certain glands（腺）in the bird’s body and prepares it for migration．One scientist is able to make birds migrate in midwinter by expo-sing them for two months to artificial daylight．Recoveries of marked birds indicate that they fly north as soon as they are set free．The conclusion is that the urge to migrate is determined by changes in the bird’s body which take place under seasonal changes in the length of daylight． This theory would account for the fact that not all birds migrate at the same time．Each sDecies seems to have its own schedule．The theory would also account for the regular time and rou‘tes of migration．Birds arrive at a given place year after year．Unfavorable weather delays them only a few days．Total hours of daylight，rather than weather，start them on the way． How birds find their way to the same place year after year and why they follow their own Darticular route are still mysteries．They evidently do not follow known landmarks，for many young birds migrate alone without the help of experienced adults．
We can conclude from the first paragraph that__________ ．
A.during the Ice Age，the whole Europe was covered with ice
B.the south used to be the homelands of all birds
C.scientists can confidently explain why birds migrate now
D.migration of birds can be explained by the change of ice on earth
