成人英语三级考试阅读理解练习题

Packaging

is

a

very

important

form

of

advertising.

A

package

can

sometimes

motivate

people

to

buy

products.

For

example,

a

little

child

might ask for a breakfast food contained in a box with a picture of a TV

character.

The

child

is

more

interested

in

the

picture

than

in

breakfast

food. Pictures for children to color or cut out, games printed on a package,

or a small gift inside a box also motivate many children to buy products -

or to ask their parents to buy for them.

Some packages suggest that a buyer will get something for nothing.

Food products sold in reusable containers are examples of this. Although

a similar product in plain container might cost less, people often prefer to

buy

the

product

in

a

reusable

glass

or

dish,

because

they

believe

the

container is free. However, the cost of the container is added to the cost

of the product.

The

size

of

a

package

also

motivates

a

buyer.

Maybe

the

package

has“Economy

Size”or“Family

Size”printed

on

it.

This

suggests

that

the

larger

size

has

the

most

product

for

the

least

money.

But

that

is

not

always true. To find it out, a buyer has to know how the product is sold

and the price of the basic unit.

The

information

on

the

package

should

provide

some

answers.

But

the important thing for any buyer to remember is that a package is often

an

advertisement.

The

words

and

pictures

do

not

tell

the

whole

story.

Only the product inside can do that.
