C) Reading Comprehension
5- Read the following passage, then answer the questions:
When you enter a supermarket, the manager knows better than you do how you will behave – which way you will walk, where you’ll look, what will make you buy one product rather than another. When customers go into a shop, they usually look to their left but move clockwise, towards the right. So supermarket entrances are usually on the left of the building, and the layout is designed to take shoppers around the store, from left to right. Then, shoppers will pay attention to all the products.
Fresh fruits and vegetables are shown near supermarket entrances. This gives the impression that only healthy food is sold in the shop. Basic foods that everyone buys, like sugar and tea, are kept in different places so customers go past other attractive goods before they find them. In this way shoppers are encouraged to buy products that they do not really need.
One best-selling position for products is on shelves at eye-level. Another is at the end of passage between shelves because shoppers usually slow down to turn into the next passage. Sweets are often placed at children’s eye-level at the checkout. While parents are waiting to pay, children take the sweets they want. Customers also buy more when the shelves are full than they are half-empty.
