Eating popcorn in the cinema may be irritating not just for fellow movie goers,but for advertisers:a group of researchers from Cologne University has concluded that chewing makes us immune to film advertising.
The reason why ads manage to imprint(刻上記號) brand names on our brains is (85)thatthat our lips and the tongue automatically simulate the pronunciation of a new name when we first hear it. (86)Every time/Each timeEvery time/Each time we re-encounter the name,our mouth subconsciously practises its pronunciation.
However,according to the study (87)publishedpublished(publish) in the Journal of Consumer Psychology,this "inner speech" can be disturbed by chewing, (88)renderingrendering(render) the repetition effect redundant.
(89)ForFor their experiment,the researchers invited a group of 96 people to a cinema to watch a movie preceded by a series of adverts.Half of the participants (90)were givenwere given(give) free popcorn throughout the session,the other half only received a small sugar cube (91)whichwhich immediately dissolved in their mouths.
A test at the end of the screening showed that the adverts had left no effect on those viewers who had chewed their way through popcorn throughout,while the other participants showed positive psychological responses to the products they (92)had encounteredhad encountered(encounter) in the ads.
"The mundane activity of eating popcorn made participants immune to the pervasive effects of advertising," said Sascha Topolinski,one of the researchers.
He goes as far as implying that his research (93)maymay spell the end of the traditional popcorn machine in cinema foyers. "This finding suggests that selling candy in cinemas actually undermines advertising effects,which contradicts present marketing strategies.In the future,when promoting a novel brand,advertising clients might consider trying to prevent candy (94)being soldbeing sold (sell) before the main movie."

3.Dear Laura,
Thanks for letting us to stay at your seaside house. Now, you might have heard from your neighbors about which happened on Saturday evening. When I was out a walk, my younger son, Tom, played football before your house. He made so many noise that the neighbors got quite angrily. Even worse, Tom broke one of the window of Mr. Wilson's house. Tom and I apologized to all the neighbors for the unhappy happenings, but promised to have the broken window repair soon. Tom said that we would not do such silly things any more. I am glad that your neighbors had forgiven us. They are really nice people.
Yours,
Betty發(fā)布:2025/1/30 8:0:1組卷:12引用:2難度:0.5
