It sounds simple and achievable. But, 1 , wo rds of wisdom are soon forgotten. Once companies have attract ed customers they often 2the second half of the story. In the excitement of beating off the competition, negotiating prices, securing orders, and delivering the product, managers tend to become carried away. They forg et what they regard as the boring side of business— 3that the customer remains a customer.4to concentrate on retaining as well as attracting customers cost s businesses huge amounts of money annually. It has been esti mated that the average company loses between 10 and 30 per cent of its customers every year. In constantly changing5 , this is not surprising. What is surprising is the fact that few companies have any idea how many customers they have lost. Only now are organisations beginning to wake up to these lost opportunities and calculate the 6implications. Cutting down the number of customers a company loses can make a big 7in its performance. Research in the US found that a five per cen t decrease in the number of defecting(流失的) customers led to 8 increases of between 25 and 85 per cent.In the US, Domino’s Pizza estimates that a regular customer is worth more than $5, 000 over ten years. A customer who receiv es a poor quality product or service on their first visit and 9 never returns, is losing the company thousands of dollars in10profits (more if you consider how many people they are likely to tell about their bad experience).The logic behind cultivating customer 11is impossible to deny. “In practice most companies’ marketing e ffort is focused on getting customers, with little attention paid to 12them”, says Adrian Payne of Cornfield University’s School of M anagement. “Research suggests that there is a close relationshi p between retaining customers and making profits. 13customers tend to buy more, are predictable and usually cost le ss to service than new customers. Furthermore, they tend to be less price 14 , and may provide free word-of-mouth advertising. Retaining customers also makes it 15for competitors to enter a market or increase their share of a m arket."1. A. in particularB. in realityC. at leastD. first of all2.

高中英语真题:2014高考英语完形填空、阅读理解训练题(8)及答案In the 1960s Walt Disney pictured in the mind a future utopian city with underground roads and a climate-controlled round roof. The real community of Celebration, Florid a, built in 1999, applies the social and environmental goals of b oth Disney and the New Urbanism movement.Disney and the New Urbanism have imagined communities that promote social and local c ommunication. Celebration has a central Market Street district t o reduce traffic and encourage social contacts. The idea is that if the downtown area is neatly and closely ranked, people will w alk and meet their neighbors. Downtown events like arts festival s also bring citizens together. Narrow, tree-lined streets are "traffic calm"——with slower speed limits——to encourage bicycling and walking.Moreover, housing in Celebration includes both single- and m ulti-family houses that encourages socialization. Apartment building s are located close to downtown, and houses are built close together with small yards. They feature entrance halls to encourag e citizens to socialize."Many aspects of that kind of design are really aimed at maxi mizing social communication between citizens, not just on the s treets but also in community institutions that are very much a pa rt of public life there," says Andrew Ross, a New York Universit y professor who lived in Celebration for one year.Utopian communities such as Celebration are also designed with environmental protection in mind. The town itself is built on 4,900 acres surrounded by a 4,700 acre protected greenbelt. T he greenbelt parks, and common areas accommodate native wi ldlife and animals.High-rise office and apartment buildings provide close office and living space in a small g eographic area in order to reduce urban sprawl, the spread of t oday's cities onto nature areas.Buildings also minimize environmental influence by using coolin g; and electric systems with insulated (绝缘的;隔热的) glass, cooling towers, and energy-saving lamps."The town more or less borrows very heavily from New Urbani st principles...to create environmentally friendly alternatives to s prawl and to create communities around people rather than vehicles," Ross said.59.

Mark Twain said that "habit is habit, and not to be flung(扔)out the window by anyone, but coaxed(劝诱) downstairs a step at a time. " The chances of successfully changing negative behavior 36 when you make gradual changes that give you time to _ 37 _ negative patterns forpositive ones.On any given day, countless numbers of us get out of bed and _ 38 _ to begin to change a given behavior "today." Whether it be exercising more, drinking less, managing time 39 or some other change in a negative behavior, we start out with high 40 . In a short time, however, a vast majority of people fail and are soon doing 41 it was they thought they shouldn't be doing.After considerable research, some researchers believe that behavior changes usually do not 42 if they start with the change itself. 43, they believe that we must 44 a series of “stages” to adequately prepare ourselves for that 45 change. Once you have analyzed all the factors that 46 what you do ,you must decide which behavior-change technique will work best for you.According to the psychologist Albert Ellis, most47 problems and related behaviors arise from irrational (不理性的) statements that people make to 48 when events in their lives are different from what they would like them to be. For example, suppose after doing 49 on an exam, you say to yourself, “I can not believe I failed that easy exam . Iam so stupid.”By changing this irrational “catastrophic” self-talk into rational, 50 statements about what is really going on, you can increase the 51 that positive behaviors will occur.Positive self-talk might be 52 as follows: "I really didn't study enough for the exam. I just need to prepare for the next 53”.Such self-talk will help you to recover quickly from 54 and take positive steps to correct the situation. Some other technique like purposefully 55 or stopping negative thoughts and refusing todwell on (沉湎于) negative images can also spare you wasted energy, time and emotional resources and move on to positive changes.36.
