He took a short business course, and went to work as a salesman in a large city.Woolworth realized he had a natural skill for showing goods to attract peoples interest, but he soon learned something more imp
39、ortant. One day his boss told him to sell some odds and ends (小商品 ) for as much as he could get. Frank put all these things on one table with a sign which said FIVE CENTS EACH. People fought and pushed to buy the things and the table was soon cleared.Soon afterwards, Woolworth opened his own store,
40、selling goods at five and ten cents. But he had another lesson to learn before he became successful.

41、or knives. The order was so large that the factory had to keep running 24 hours a day for a whole year.

46、he customers are always right. B. If you want to succeed, the rule is the only way. C. stores must always follow the customers orders if they want to make more money. D. stores should do their best to meet the customers needs if they want to be successful. EAbout ten men in every hundred suffer from
47、 color blindness in some way. Women are luckier; only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman! There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yel
48、low are all shadows of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green a strange world indeed.Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very smal
49、l things called “cones”. These help us to see in a bright light and to tell difference between colors. There are also millions of “rods”, but these are used for seeing when it is near dark. They show us shape but no color.Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes prefer blue to yellow. A red lig
50、ht will not attract insects, but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about t
51、he invisible colors around us.72. The passage is mainly about _. A. color and its surprising effects. B. women being luckier than men C. danger caused by color blindness D. color blindness73.

52、ight C. kill mosquitoes D. tell orange from yellow74. Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by women? A. Women are more careful. B. There are fewer color-blind women C.
