第7题
A white-haired elderly gentleman steps out of his car, brief case in hand and coat over hi
s arm. He has called from the office to say that he is on the way. His wife is preparing supper. He can see the light shining inside his own front door. He looks forward to a fire and his slippers. It is a cold night. A few seconds later he is lying on the icy side-walk in a pool of his blood.

It doesn't happen very often, but it does happen in the capital city of the United States. It is likely to happen in the near-deserted city center at night, in a parking lot in the shadow of a federal building. It is more likely to happen in one of the grey fringe areas between the poor ghettos and the residential areas. It could happen any time in the ghetto itself where people don't walk at night; more American city crime and most of Washington's is by poor against poor. It seldom happens in the tree-lined streets of north-west Washington.

It did happen last week. Senator John Stennis was the victim of a classic Washington street crime. He happened to be an important politician, but that is not why he was shot. What happened to him could happen to any of us.

Senator Stennis, who was 71, got out of his white Buick Electra at 7:40 p. m. ,outside his home at 3609 Cumberland Street. Two youths said, "Get me up." He put up no resistance. He handed over his wallet containing credit cards, driving license, and the like, a gold watch and the only money he had in his pockets—twenty five cents. The youths said either, "Now we're going to shoot you anyway," or "We ought to shoot you anyway." Anyway they did. One bullet hit him in the fleshy part of the thigh, struck the bone, and disintegrated. The other entered his chest just below the breast pocket of his suit. It narrowly missed his heart.

Amazingly he made it across a ten-foot sidewalk, up four steps, along twenty more feet of concrete pathway, three more steps and a six-foot landing, His wife met him at the door, and saw two men running. The Senator told her to call the police and an ambulance.

Senator Stennis was a powerful political figure, but it is unlikely that the two young knew who he was. More likely his offense was that he had no more cash than a quarter—not enough for a fix, not enough for two cups of coffee. One is warned always not to carry money on the streets of Washington.

Senator Stennis was ______ when he was shot.

A.going to work

B.coming home from work

C.going out for the evening

D.coming home from a party

It is said that the public and Congressional concern about deceptive packaging rumpus star
ted 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.

The manufacturer who increases the unit price of his product by changing his package size to lower the quantity of delivered can, without undue hardship, put his product into boxes, bags, and tins that will contain even 8-ounce, one-pound, two-pound quantities of breakfast 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 endless changes of package sizes, materials, shapes, art works, 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 dollar to 2.50 dollars 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 expensive luxury. It evidently does come high. When an average family pays about 200 dollars a year for bottles, cans, boxes, jars and other containers, most of which can't be used any more but stuffing the garbage can.

What started the public and Congressional concern about deceptive packaging rumpus?

A.Consumers' complaints about the changes in the package size.

B.Expensive packaging for poor quality products.

C.A senator's discovery of the tricks in packaging.

D.The rise in the unit price for many products.
