11．Since 1972 Americans have watched more than 9，000 episodes of "The Price is Right"，a game show with an economic twist.After being selected from the audience by the famous phrase—"come on down"—contestants must guess the exact price of prizes，ranging from guitars to garden furniture.If they guess too high，they are disqualified.In a recent paper，Jonathan Hartley of Harvard Kennedy School points out an interesting trend.Contestants have got a lot worse at guessing prices.
Technology may play a role.Reaching for a smartphone is easier than recalling a fact from memory.Who remembers phone numbers any more？People may just fall out of the habit of recalling prices.Still，the rise of the smartphone is a recent phenomenon --it cannot explain why contestants became worse guessers during the 1970s，1980s and 1990s.
Economic changes may be a better explanation.A paper published in 2001 suggested that higher GDP growth raised "price-recall error".Like the famous politician who thinks a gallon of milk costs ﹩15，as people get richer they worry less about budgeting（预算）.
A related trend is that Americans devote a decreasing share of their household spending to goods--which tend to appear on "The Price Is Right"，and a rising share to services，such as dining and childcare.Contestants might be pretty good at guessing the price of a gym class or a babysitter.
Perhaps the most interesting explanation，however，relates to globalization.In the early 1970s，consumers had a relatively limited selection of products to choose from.Around the time that "The Price Is Right" first aired，sales catalogues were hundreds of pages long.But a search on Amazon brings up nearly1，000 results just for the word "toaster".Firms offer a huge range of differentiated products at wildly different prices，allowing consumers to satisfy their special wants.The result is that guessing prices is trickier.
The rise of online shopping adds further confusion.Online retailers（零售商）respond instantly to fluctuations in supply and demand.Alberto Cavallo of Harvard Business School finds that some large retailers now change their prices，both upwards and downwards，twice as frequently as they did a decade ago.All of this suggests that contestants' guesses may yet get worse.
（1）What does Jonathan Hartley find out from" The Price Is Right"？
A．Guessing prices has become a growing trend.
B．Technology makes it easier to guess prices.
C．People are becoming less price-sensitive.
D．It's necessary to have the habit of guessing prices.
（2）Why does the author mention "the price of a gallon of milk" in Paragraph 3？
A．To show a good economy makes people less concerned about prices.
B．To complain "Price-recall error" is common among politicians.
C．To reveal Americans are spending more on services than goods.
D．To present "The Price Is Right" tends to focus on daily goods.
（3）In which way does globalization make guessing prices difficult？
A．It has caused frequent price wars.
B．It directs people's attention to online shopping.
C．It has brought a wealth of products.
D．It leads to huge price differences among retailers.
（4）The underlined word "fluctuations" in the last paragraph means.
A．Goals.
B．Examples.
C．Charges.
D．Changes.组卷：5引用：1难度：0.5

33．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
The big Town Hall clock was striking midnight when Frank began to cross the bridge.The dark night air was cold and wet，and the street lamps gave little light.Frank was anxious to get home and his footsteps rang loudly on the silent night.
When he reached the middle of the bridge，he thought he could hear someone coming near behind him.He looked back but could see no one.However，the sound continued，and Frank began walking more quickly.Then he slowed down again，thinking there was nothing to fear in a town as quiet as this.The short，quick steps grew louder and seemed very near.
Frank found it impossible not to turn round.As he did so，he caught sight of a human form coming towards him.After reaching the other side of the bridge，Frank stopped and pretended to look down at the water.From the corner of his eyes he could now make out the form of a man dressed in a large overcoat.A hat was pulled down over his eyes and very little of his face could be seen.
As the man came near，Frank turned towards him and said something about the weather in an effort to be friendly.The man did not answer but asked roughly where Oakfield House was.Frank pointed to a big house in the distance and the stranger continued his way.
Then Frank wondered why the stranger had wanted to find Oakfield House at such an hour.He knew that the person who lived there was very rich.Almost without realizing what he was doing，Frank began following the stranger quietly.
The man was soon outside the house and Frank saw him look up at the windows.A light was still on，and the man waited until it went out.When about half an hour had passed，Frank saw him climb noiselessly over the wall and heard him drop onto the ground at the other side.
Paragraph 1：
Now Frank knew what the man wanted to do._____________
Paragraph 2：
Frank couldn't just stand in the dark and wait.______________组卷：3引用：1难度：0.6
