In 2014, many shoppers opted to avoid the【C1】________ crowds and do their holiday shopping from the comfort of their computer. Sales at online retailers gained by more than 15%. But people are also returning those purchases at record rates, up 8% from last year.
What went wrong? Is the【C2】________ shadow of the global financial crisis making it harder to accept extravagant indulgences? Or do people shop more【C3】________ —and therefore make bad decisions—when online? Both arguments are plausible. However, there is a third factor: a question of touch. We can love the look but, in an online environment, we cannot feel the quality of a texture, the shape of the fit or the weight of an earring. And【C4】________ interacting with an object makes you more committed to your purchase.
When my book brand washed was released, I conducted an experiment about the differences between the online and offline shopping. I carefully instructed a group of volunteers to promote my book in two different ways. The first was a【C5】________ hands-off approach. Whenever a customer would inquire about my book, the volunteer would take them over to the shelf and point to it. Out of 20 such requests, six customers【C6】________ with the purchase.
The second option also【C7】________ going over to the shelf but, this time, removing the book and then subtly【C8】________ onto it for just an extra moment before placing it in the customer’s hands. Of the 20 people who were handed the book, 13【C9】________ up buying it. Just physically passing the book showed a big difference in sales. Why? We feel something similar to a sense of【C10】________ when we hold things in our hand. In this case, having to then let go of the book after holding it might generate a subtle sense of loss, and motivate us to make the purchase even more.
A. proceeded B. randomly C. ownership D. impulsively
E. ended F. fulfillment G. fairly H. frenetic
I. preceded J. holding K. physically L. lingering
M. excited N. involved O. handing
【C2】
选项
答案
L
解析
上下文题。根据词性,此处应当填入形容词。根据下文 “shadow of the global financial crisis”,shadow一词提示金融危机已经过去,此处指全球金融危机的余威,故选用lingering“拖延的,逗留不去的”。
