A team of researchers, led by Akshay Rao of University of Minnesota, looked at consumers’ (2)_____ to discounting. Shoppers, they found, much prefer getting something extra free to getting something cheaper. The main reason is that most people are(3)_____ at fractions.

In another experiment, this time on his undergraduates, Mr. Rao offered two deals on loose coffee beans: 33% extra free or 33%(10)_____ the price. The discount is(11)_____ the better proposition, but the experiment shows the supposedly clever students viewed them(12)_____ equivalent.

选项
A、beyond
B、from
C、in
D、on
答案
