People can be addicted to different things—e. g. , alcohol, drugs, certain foods, or even television. People who have such an addiction are compulsive; i. e. , they have a very powerful psychological need that they feel they must satisfy. According to psychologists, many people are compulsive spenders; they feel that they must spend money. This compulsion, like most others, is irrational—impossible to explain reasonably. For compulsive spenders who buy on credit, charge accounts are even more exciting than money. In other words, compulsive spenders feel that with credit, they can do anything. Their pleasure in spending enormous amounts is actually greater than the pleasure that they get from the things they buy.
It is not only scientists, of course, who understand the psychology of spending habits, but also business people. Stores, companies, and advertisers use psychology to increase business; They consider people’ s needs for love, power, or influence, their beliefs and opinions, and so on in their advertising and sales methods.
Psychologists often use a method called "behavior therapy" to help individuals solve their personality problems. In the same way, they can help people who feel that they have problems with money: They give them " assignments. " If a person buys something in every store that he enters, for instance, a therapist might teach him self-discipline in this way: On the first day of his therapy, he must go into a store, stay five minutes, and then leave. On the second day, he should stay for ten minutes and try something on. On the third day, he stays for fifteen minutes, asks the salesclerk a question, but does not buy anything. Soon he will learn that nothing bad will happen to him if he doesn’ t buy anything, and he can solve the problem of his compulsive buying.
Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
选项
A、Many people have to spend money just because they want to meet their powerful psychological needs.
B、Business people and advertisers can use the psychology of money to increase sales.
C、All people spend money for exactly the same reason; they need to buy things.
D、According to psychologists, a person’ s spending habits might reflect his or her personality.
答案
C
解析
第一段最后讲到对于compulsive spenders来说spending enormous amounts的乐趣要比从买的东西中获得的乐趣多得多,这就表明他们花钱并非出于对于所购商品的需要。
