1、Mood States and Consumer Behavior 情绪状态和消费行为
One factor that can influence consumers is their mood state. Mood may be defined as a temporary and mild positive or negative feeling that is generalized and not tied to any circumstance. Moods should be distinguished from emotions which are usually more intense, related to specific circumstances, and often conscious.
能够影响消费者的其中一个因素是他们的情绪状态。心情可以定义为一个临时而轻微的积极或消极的感觉，是广义而不受特定环境制约的。情绪应有别于通常所说的情感，情感更为激烈，与特定的环境相关，而且往往是有意识的。
In one sense, the effect of a consumer's mood can be thought of in much the same way as can our reactions to the behavior of our friends —when our friends are happy and "up", that tends to influence us positively, but when they are "down", that can have a negative impact on us.
从某种意义上说，影响消费者的情绪可以被认为是在大多程度上与我们对朋友的行为的反应相一致的。当我们的朋友感到高兴和“高昂”时，这往往会使得我们积极，但是当他们“低落”时，会对我们有一个负面的影响。
Similarly, consumers operating under a given mood state tend to react to stimuli in a direction consistent with that mood state. Thus, for example, we should expect to see consumers in a positive mood state evaluate products in more of a favorable manner than they would when not in such a state. Moreover, mood states appear capable of enhancing a consumer's memory.
同样，消费者在特定的情绪状态下对刺激物作出的反应与那个情绪状态相一致。因此，举例来说，我们应该会看到消费者在一种积极的情绪状态下对商品做出的评价比不在这种状态中进行的评价对商品更有利。此外，情绪状态似乎能够增强消费者的记忆。
Moods appear to be readily influenced by marketing techniques. For example, the rhythm, pitch, and volume of musice has been shown to influence behavior such as the amount of time spent in supermarkets or intentions to purchase products. In addition, advertising can influence consumers' moods which, in turn, are capable of influencing consumers' reactions to products.
情绪似乎容易受到营销技巧的影响。例如，音乐的节奏、声调和音量已被证明对消费者在超市逗留的时间和购买意愿等行为具有影响力。此外，广告可以影响客户的心情，发过来说，也就是能够影响消费者对产品的反应。

3、Preserve our privacy 保护我们的隐私
Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy, that it's important to reveal yourself to friends, family and lovers in stages, at appropriate times. But few boundaries remain. The digital bread crumbs you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to reconstruct who you are, where you are and what you like. In some cases, a simple goolge search can reveal
what you think. Like it or not, increasingly we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret.
心理学家告诉我们和别人保持界限是健康的，而且在适当的时机逐步地向你的朋友、家人和恋人透露你的个人情况很重要。但是现在已经没有多少界限存在了。你处处留下的“数字面包碎屑”很容易让陌生人推向出你是谁，你在哪里，你对什么感兴趣。在有些情况下，一次简单的Google搜索就可以暴露你的想法。无论我们喜欢与否，我们越来越生活在一个无法保密的世界里。
The key question is: Does that matter?
问题的关键是：这很重要吗?
For many Americans, the answer apparently is "no".
对于许多美国人来说，答案很显然是“不重要”。
When opinion polls ask Americans about privacy, most say they are concerned about losing it. A survey found an overwhelming pessimism about privacy, with 60 percent of respondents saying they feel their privacy is "slipping away, and that bothers me."
在一次关于隐私的美国民意调查时，大部分人很担心失去它。有一项调查发现，人们对于隐私的安全性非常地悲观，60%的被调查者说他们感觉“隐私正离他们远去，这让他们烦恼不已。”
But people say one thing and do another. Only a tiny fraction of Americans change any behaviors in an effort to preserve
their privacy. Few people turn down a discount at tollbooths to avoid using the EZ-Pass system that can track automobile movements. And few turn down supermarket loyalty cards. Privacy economist Alessandro Acquits has run a series of tests that reveal people will surrender personal information like Social Security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful
50-cents-off coupon.
但是人们言行不一。只有一小部分美国人改变自己的行为，以保护自己的隐私。很少有人会拒绝收费站的打折，本来若是拒绝的话就可以避免使用能跟踪汽车行踪的EZ-Pass系统。很少有人会拒绝超市的会员优惠卡(积分卡)。隐私经济学家压力山德罗·奎斯蒂进行了一系列的测试，表明人们会透露像社保卡号这样的个人信息，就只是为了能拿到微不足道的便宜50美分的优惠券。
But privacy does matter —at least sometimes. It's like health: when you have it, you don't notice it. Only when it's gone do you wish you'd done more to protect it.
但是隐私的确很重要——至少有些时候是这样。它就如同健康：当你拥有它时，你没有注意它，当你失去它后，你才后悔你没有尽力保护好它。

lesson 09 PADI Instructor training Become a PADI professional today Train in the tropical Florida https://www.doczj.com/doc/d314763377.html, Catherine has just left school and she wants to find a job. She and her mother have come to speak to the Careers Advisory Officer. Listen to their conversation. Officer: Oh, come in, take a seat. I'm the Careers Officer. You're Cathy, aren't you? Mother: That's right. This is Catherine Hunt, and I'm her mother. Officer: How do you do, Mrs Hunt. Hello, Catherine. Cathy: Hello. Pleased to meet you. Officer: And you'd like some advice about choosing a career? Mother: Yes, she would. Wouldn't you, Catherine? Cathy: Yes, Please. Officer: Well, just let me ask a few questions to begin with. How old are you, Catherine? Mother: She's nineteen. Well, she's almost nineteen. She'll be nineteen next month. Officer: And what qualifications have you got? Mother: Well, qualifications from school of course. Very good results she got. And she's got certificates for ballet and for playing the piano. Officer: Is that what you're interested in, Catherine, dancing and music? Cathy: Well ... Mother: Ever since she was a little girl she's been very keen on her music and dancing. She ought to be a music teacher or something. She's quite willing to train for a few more years to get the right job, aren't you, Catherine? Cathy: Well, if it's a good idea. Mother: There you are, you see. She's good girl really. A bit lazy and disorganized sometimes, but she's very bright. I'm sure the Careers Officer will have lots of jobs for you. Officer: Well, I'm afraid it's not as easy as that. There are many young people these days who can't find the job they want. Mother: I told you so, Catherine. I told you shouldn't wear that dress. You have to look smart to get a job these days. Officer: I think she looks very nice. Mrs. Hunt, will you come into the other office for a moment and look at some of the information we have there. I'm sure you'd like to see how we can help young people. Mother: Yes, I'd love to. Mind you, I think Catherine would be a very nice teacher. She could work with young children. She'd like that. Or she could be a vet. She's always looking after sick animals. Officer: I'm afraid there's a lot of competition. You need very good results to be a vet. This way, Mrs. Hunt. Just wait a minute, Catherine. * * * Officer: There are just one or two more things, Catherine. Cathy: Do call me Cathy. Officer: OK, Cathy. Are you really interested in being a vet? Cathy: Not really. Anyway, I'm not bright enough. I'm reasonably intelligent, but I'm not brilliant. I'm afraid my mother is a bit over-optimistic. Officer: Yes, I guessed that. She's a bit overpowering, isn't she, your mum? Cathy: A bit. But she's very kind. Officer: I'm sure she is. So, you're interested in ballet and music, are you? Cathy: Not really. My mother sent me to lessons when I was six, so I'm quite good, I suppose. But I don't think I want to do that for the rest of my life, especially music. It's so lonely. Officer: What do you enjoy doing? Cathy: Well, I like playing tennis, and swimming. Oh, I went to France with the school choir last year. I really enjoyed that. And I like talking to people. But I suppose you mean real interests—things that would help me to get a job?

I live just over the road. Ann: That's very kind of you. I'm an architect myself, so ... Oh, look! There's someone I know, Eileen! Eileen: Ann, fancy seeing you here! How's life? Ann: Oh, mustn't grumble. Moving's never much fun though, is it? Anyway, how are things with you? You're still at the same estate agent's. I suppose? Eileen: Oh yes. I can't see myself leaving, well, not in the foreseeable future. Ann: Oh, I quite forgot. Do you two know each other? John: Yes, actually, we've met on many an occasion. Hello, Eileen.

Lesson 1 'This Is Your Life' is one of the most popular programmes on British and American television. Every week a famous person is invited to a television studio, without knowing that he or she will be the subject of the programme. The compère meets the person outside the studio and says 'This is your life!' The person then meets friends and relatives from his or her past and present. Studio 4 is where the programme is recorded. The programme begins at eight o'clock. It's 6:45 now and the director is checking the preparations with his new production assistant (PA). The subject of tonight's show will be an actor, Jason Douglas. The compère, as usual, will be Terry Donovan. Director: Let's just check the arrangements. We're bringing Jason Douglas here in a studio car—he thinks he's coming to a discussion programme! The driver has been told to arrive at exactly 7:55. Now, the programme begins at eight o'clock. At that time Jason will be walking to the studio. Terry Donovan will start his introduction at 8:01, and Jason will arrive at 8:02. Terry will meet him at the studio entrance ... Camera 4 will be there. Then he'll take him to that seat. It'll be on Camera 3. Jason will be sitting there during the whole programme. For most of the show Terry will be standing in the middle, and he'll be on Camera 2. The guests will come through that door, talk to Terry and Jason ... and then sit over there. Director: Now, is that all clear? PA: Yes ... there's just one thing. Director: Well, what is it? PA: Who's going to look after the guests during the show? Director: Pauline is. PA: And where will they be waiting during the show? Director: In Room 401, as usual. Pauline will be waiting with them, and she'll be watching the show on the monitor. She'll tell them two minutes before they enter. PA: I think that's everything. Terry: Good evening and welcome to 'This is Your Life'. This is Terry Donovan speaking. We're waiting for the subject of tonight's programme. He's one of the world's leading actors, and he thinks he's coming here to take part in a discussion programme ... I can hear him now ... yes, here he is! Jason Douglas ... This is your life! Jason: Oh, no ... I don't believe it! Not me ... Terry: Yes, you! Now come over here and sit down. Jason, you were born at number 28 Balaclava Street in East Ham, London on July 2nd, 1947. You were one of six children, and your father was a taxi driver. Of course, your name was then Graham Smith. Terry: Now, do you know this voice? 'I remember Jason when he was two. He used to scream and shout all day.' Jason: Susan! Terry: Yes ... all the way from Sydney, Australia ... She flew here specially for this programme. It's your sister, Susan Fraser! Jason: Susan ... Why didn't you tell me ... oh, this is wonderful!

Yu Hong: I'm a transportation engineer. Interviewer: I see. So you 're an immigrant to the United States. Yu Hong: Yes, that's right. Interviewer: What are some of difficulties of being an immigrant in the U.S.? Yu Hong: Oh, that's not an easy question to answer. There are so many things, really. I guess one of the biggest difficulties is that I don't have any relatives here. I mean, I have a lot of friends, but that's not the same thing. In China, on the holidays or the weekend, we visit relatives. It isn't the same here. Interviewer: And what do you miss the most from home?
