23、bles has been 28 by clean-eating experts.But now a 29 review and analysis of 30 studies by Canadian researchers found that notonly does pasta not cause weight gain,but three meals a week can help people drop more than halfa kilogram over four months.The reviewers found that pasta had been unfairly d

28、ponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.The Best Retailers Combine Bricks and ClicksA Retail profits are falling sharply.Stores are closing.Malls are emptying.The depressingstories just keep coming.Reading the earnings announcements of large retail stores likeMacys,Nordstrom,and Target is about as upliftin

29、g as a tour of an intensive care unit.Theinternet is apparently taking down yet another industry.Brick and mortar stores(实体店)seem to be going the way of the yellow pages.Sure enough,the Census Bureau just releaseddata showing that online retail sales surged 15.2 percent between the first quarter of

30、2015 andthe first quarter of 2016.B But before you dump all of your retail stocks,there are more facts you should consider.Looking only at that 15.2 percent surge”would be misleading.It was an increase that was ona small base of 6.9 percent.Even when a tiny number grows by a large percentage temis,i

31、t isoften still tiny.C More than 20 years after the internet was opened to commerce,the Census Bureau tells us thatbrick and mortar sales accounted for 92.3 percent of retail sales in the first quarter of 2016.Their data show that only 0.8 percent of retail sales shifted from offline to online betwe

32、en thebeginning of 2015 and 2016.D So,despite all the talk about drone(无 人机)deliveries to your doorstep,all the retailexecutives expressing anxiety over consumers going online,and even a Presidential candidateexclaiming that Amazon has a huge antitrust problem,the Census data suggest that physicalre

33、tail is thriving.Of course,the closed stores,depressed executives,and sinking stockssuggest otherwise.Whafs the real story?E Many firms operating brick and mortar stores are in trouble.The retail industry is gettingreinvented,“as we describe in our new book Matchmakers.Ifs standing in the path of wh

34、atSchumpeter called a gale(大 风)of creative destruction.That storm has been brewing forsome time,and as it has reached gale force,most large retailers are searching fbr a response.As the CFO of Macy,s put it recently,HWe*re frankly scratching our heads.F But its not happening as experts predicted.In

35、the peak of the bubble,brick andmortar retail was one of those industries the internet was going to kill-and quickly.Thebust discredited most predictions of that sort and in the years that followed,conventional retailers*confidence in the future increased as Census continued to report weakonline sal

36、es.And then the gale G It is becoming increasingly clear that retail reinvention isn,t a simple battle to the deathbetween bricks and clicks.It is about devising retail models that work for people who aremaking increasing use of a growing array of internet-connected tools to change how theysearch,sh

37、op,and buy.Creative retailers are using the new technologies to innovate just abouteverything stores do from managing inventory,to marketing,to getting paid.H More than drones dropping a new supply of underwear on your doorstep,Apples massivelysuccessful brick-and-mortar-and-glass retail stores and

38、Amazons small steps in the samedirection are what should keep old-fashioned retailers awake at night.Not to mention thelarge number of creative new retailers,like Bonobos,that are blending online and offlineexperiences in creative ways.I Retail reinvention is not a simple process,and its also not ha

39、ppening on what used to be calledInternet Time.Some internet-driven changes have happened quickly,of course.Craigslistquickly overtook newspaper classified ads and turned newspaper economics upside down.But many widely anticipated changes werent quick,and some haven*t really started.With thebenefit

40、of hindsight（后 见 之 明），it looks like the internet will transform the economy atsomething like the pace of other great inventions like electricity.B2B commerce,fbr example,didnt move mainly online by 2005 as many had predicted in 2000,nor even by 2016,but thatdoesnt mean it won,t do so over the next f

41、ew decades.J But the gale is still blowing.The sudden decline in foot traffic in recent years,even though ithasnt been accompanied by a massive decline in physical sales,is a critical warning.Peoplecan shop more efficiently online and therefore don*t need to go to as many stores to find whatthey wan

42、t.There*s a surplus of physical shopping space for the crowds,which is one reasonwhy stores are downsizing and closing.K The rise of the mobile phone has recently added a new level of complexity to the process ofretail reinvention.Even five years ago most people faced a choice.Sit at your computer,p

43、robably at home or at the office,search and browse,and buy.Or head out to the mall,orMain Street,look and shop,and buy.Now,just about everyone has a smartphone,connectedto the internet almost everywhere almost all the time.Even when a retailer gets a customer towalk in the store,she can easily see i

44、f there*s a better deal online or at another store nearby.L So far,the main thing many large retailers have done in response to all this is to open onlinestores,so people will come to them directly rather than to Amazon and its smaller onlinerivals.Many are having the same problem that newspapers ha

45、ve had.Even if they get onlinetraffic,they struggle to make enough money online to compensate fbr what they are losingoffline.M A few seem to be making this work.Among large traditional retailers,Walmart recentlyreported the best results,leading its stock price to surge,while Macy*s,Target,andNordst

46、roms dropped.Yet Walmarts year-over-year online sales only grew 7 percent,leadingits CEO to lament（哀叹），Growth here is too slow.*Part of the problem is that almost twodecades after Amazon filed the one-click patent,the online retail shopping and buyingexperience is filled with frictions.A recent stud

47、y graded more than 600 internet retailers onhow easy it was fbr consumers to shop,buy,and pay.Almost half of the sites didnt get apassing grade and only 18 percent got an A orB.N The turmoil on the ground in physical retail is hard to square with the Census data.Unfortunately,part of the explanation

48、 is that the Census retail data are unreliable.Our deeplook into those data and their preparation revealed serious problems.It seems likely thatCensus simply misclassifies a large chunk of online sales.It is certain that the Censusprocedures,which lump the online sales of major traditional retailers

49、 like Walmart with Hnon-store retailers like food trucks,can mask major changes in individual retail categories.Thebureau could easily present their data in more useful ways,but they have chosen not to.O Despite the turmoil,brick and mortar wont disappear any time soon.The big questions arewhich,if

50、any,of the large traditional retailers will still be on the scene in a decade or twobecause they have successfully reinvented themselves,which new players will operate busystores on Main Streets and maybe even in shopping malls,and how the shopping and buyingexperience will have changed in each reta
