21、 a healthy diet,and even help people lose weight.For years,nutritionists haverecommended that pasta be kept to a 26_,to cut calories,prevent fat build-up and stop bloodsugar 27_ up.The low-carbohydrate food movement gave birth to such diets as the Atkins,Paleo and Keto,which advised swapping foods l

22、ike bread,pasta and potatoes for vegetables,fish and meat.Morerecently the trend of swapping spaghetti for vegetables has been 28 by clean-eating experts.But now a 22 review and analysis of 30 studies by Canadian researchers found that notonly does pasta not cause weight gain,but three meals a week

23、can help people drop more than half akilogram over four months.The reviewers found that pasta had been unfairly demonized(妖魔化)because it had been 3 0 in with other,more fat-promoting carbohydrates.“The study found that pasta didnt 31 to weight gain or increase in body fat,n said leadauthor Dr John S

27、You may choose a paragraph more than once.Eachparagraph is marked with a letter.Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letteron Answer Sheet 2.The Best Retailers Combine Bricks and ClicksA Retail profits are falling sharply.Stores are closing.Malls are emptying.The depressing storiesjust

28、keep coming.Reading the earnings announcements of large retail stores like Macys,Nordstrom,and Target is about as uplifting as a tour of an intensive care unit.The Internet isapparently taking down yet another industry.Brick and mortar stores(实体店)seem to be goingthe way of the yellow pages.Sure enou

29、gh,the Census Bureau just released data showing thatonline retail sales surged 15.2 percent between the first quarter of 2015 and the first quarterof 2016.B But before you dump all of your retail stocks,there are more facts you should consider.Lookingonly at that 15.2 percent“surge”would be misleadi

30、ng.It was an increase that was on a smallbase of 6.9 percent.Even when a tiny number grows by a large percentage terms,it is often stilltiny.第5/1 2页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 retai

31、l sales in the first quarter of 2016.Theirdata show that only 0.8 percent of retail sales shifted from offline to online between the beginningof 2015 and 2016.D So,despite all the talk about dro阳 无 人 机）deliveries to your doorstep,all the retail executivesexpressing anxiety over consumers going onlin

32、e,and even a Presidential candidate exclaimingthat Amazon has a u huge antitrust problem,“the Census data suggest that physical retail isthriving.Of course,the closed stores,depressed executives,and sinking stocks suggest otherwise.Whafs the real story?E Many firms operating brick and mortar stores

33、are in trouble.The retail industry is gettingreinvented,as we describe in our new book Matchmakers.Ifs standing in the path of whatSchumpeter called a gafe（大风）of creative destruction.That storm has been brewing for sometime,and as it has reached gale force,most large retailers are searching for a re

34、sponse.As theCFO of Macys put it recently,We?re frankly scratching our heads.”F But its not happening as experts predicted.In the peak of the dotcom bubble,brick-and-mortarretail was one of those industries the Internet was going to kill-and quickly.The dotcom bustdiscredited most predictions of tha

35、t sort And in the years that followed,conventional retailers,confidence in the future increased as Census continued to report weak online sales.And then thegale hitG It is becoming increasingly clear that retail reinvention isnt a simple battle to the death betweenbricks and clicks.It is about devis

36、ing retail models that work for people who are makingincreasing use of a growing array of Internet-connected tools to change how they search,shop,and buy.Creative retailers are using the new technologies to innovate just about everything storesdo from managing inventory,to marketing,to getting paid.

37、H More than drones dropping a new supply of underwear on your doorstep,Apples massivelysuccessful brick-and-mortar-and-glass retail stores and Amazons small steps in the same directionare what should keep old-fashioned retailers awake at night.Not to mention the large number ofcreative new retailers

38、,like Bonobos,that are blending online and offline experiences in creativeways.I Retail reinvention is not a simple process,and its also not happening on what used to be calledu Internet Time Some Internet-driven changes have happened quickly,of course.Craigslistquickly overtook newspaper classified

39、 ads and turned newspaper economics upside down.Butmany widely anticipated changes werent quick,and some havent really started.Wth the benefitof hindsight（后见之明），it looks like the Internet will transform the economy at something like第6/1 2页the pace of other great inventions like electricity.B2B comme

40、rce,for example,didnt movemainly online by 2005 as many had predicted in 2000,nor even by 2016,but that doesnt mean itwont do so over the next few 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 p

41、hysical sales,is a critical warning.People canshop more efficiently online and therefore dont need to go to as many stores to find what theywant.Theres a surplus of physical shopping space for the crowds,which is one reason whystores are downsizing and closing.K The rise of the mobile phone has rece

42、ntly added a new level of complexity to the process of retailreinvention.Even five years ago most people faced a choice.Sit at your computer,probably athome or at the office,search and browse,and buy.Or head out to the mall,or Main Street,lookand shop,and buy.Now,just about everyone has a smartphone

43、,connected to the Internet almosteverywhere almost all the time.Even when a retailer gets a customer to walk in the store,she caneasily see if theres 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

44、,so people will come to them directly rather than to Amazon and its smaller online rivals.Many are having the same problem that newspapers have had.Even if they get online traffic,theystruggle to make enough money online to compensate for what they are losing offline.M A few seem to be making this w

45、ork.Among large traditional retailers,Walmart recently reportedthe best results,leading its stock price to surge,while Macys,Target,and Nordstroms dropped.Yet Walmarfs year-over-year online sales only grew 7 percent,leading its CEO to lament（哀叹）,“Growth here is too slow.Part of the problem is that a

46、lmost two decades after Amazon filed theone-click patent,the online retail shopping and buying experience is filled with frictions.A recentstudy graded more than 600 Internet retailers on how easy it was for consumers to shop,buy,andpay.Almost half of the sites didnt get a passing grade and only 18

47、percent got an A or B.N The turmoil on the ground in physical retail is hard to square with the Census data.Unfortunately,part of the explanation is that the Census retail data are unreliable.Our deep look into those dataand their preparation revealed serious problems.It seems likely that Census sim

48、ply misclassifies alarge chunk of online sales.It is certain that the Census procedures,which lump the online salesof major traditional retailers like Walmart in with“non-store retailers“like food trucks,can maskmajor changes in individual retail categories.The bureau could easily present their data

49、 in moreuseful ways,but they have chosen not to.O Despite the turmoil,brick and mortar wont disappear any time soon.The big questions arewhich,if any,of the large traditional retailers will still be on the scene in a decade or two because第7/1 2页they have successfully reinvented themselves,which new

50、players will operate busy stores onMain Streets and maybe even in shopping malls,and how the shopping and buying experiencewill have changed in each retail category.Investors shouldnt write ofF brick and mortar.Whetherthey should bet on the traditional players who run those stores now is another mat
