问题     Passing by a supermarket, I was attracted by a long queue of people with big plastic bags full of kinds of goods they bought outside the gate. I came up with curiosity to find out the puzzle. Handing in this purchase ticket to the girl in charge of the activity, the boy in the front of the queue received a box of chocolate with delicate package. It turned out to be a promotion activity, which would provide a box of chocolate to those who bought more than ten yuan worth of goods and paid one more yuan. It’ s really good news especially for those who are keen on bargains. Once there was a promotion activity, they were usually easy to go into ecstasies(狂喜)and bought the goods on impulse, never having time to consider carefully whether they needed the goods desperately or not. I was not an exception. When I was determined to make a purchase, however, finding that there was only nine yuan with myself, I was forced to give up.
    Nowadays, more and more merchants use their brains to launch bewildering(迷惑人的)promotion activities to attract people’ s attention, which motivate their consumption. It’ s merchants who take advantage of people’ s psychology of taking advantage of petty benefits. From the point of the whole society, consumption stimulates production, which in turn brings up employment opportunities and strengthens the purchase capacity of the whole society. Once people have more money, they can afford and consume more goods. Consequently, the more goods are consumed, the greater incentive(鼓励)for the renewal cycle of products, which results in the progress of industrial technology and the elimination of economic depression.
    As for one who has little money at his disposal, he’ d better consider carefully before making a purchase decision. Otherwise, he has to curtail(削减)his expenditure during the rest of the month.
People cannot help buying goods they don’t actually need when______.

选项 A、there is a promotion activity
B、they have enough money
C、they have time to go around
D、they are with children

答案A

解析 事实细节题。根据文章第一段第六句“Once there was a promotion activity,they were usually easy…and bought the goods on impulse,never having time to consider carefully whether they needed the goods desperately or not.”可知,当有促销活动时,人们会控制不住买东西,尽管这些东西是不需要的。故选A。
