27、ns were decreasing, fishing companies were forced to fish further and further away from the shore. Then they had a big challenge how to keep the fish fresh for longer. So they decided to keep the fish stored in freezers on the boats. But the public did not like frozen fish. So again the fishing comp
28、anies had a new bigger challenge. What they decided to do was to have fish tanks on their boats. After catching fishes, they would put them in the tanks and keep them living there until they got back to shore. But in this protected environment, lacking predators (掠食者), the fish stopped moving around
29、. The Japanese public felt these dull fish did not taste fresh, which had an unpleasant effect upon sales. Once again the fishing companies had an even bigger challenge Stop for a minute! Before we go any further, I would like to ask “What are your challenges? How do you handle an unexpected challen
30、ge? ” May I think it this way that you should try to attack your challenges? Conquer them with a Swiss Army knife. Take the most proper and simple tool that you can adopt to deal with your situation. Now back to our story. How did the Japanese finally figure out the fresh fish problem? Sharks! You m
31、ight think the same. Sharks were caught and put into the tanks with other fishes. Dont sharks eat fish? Well, they do eat a few fish, but they did also keep more fish active and alert (警觉的).

36、ally keeping customers happy is easier said than done.Shoppers seldom complain to the manager or owner of retail store, but instead will alert their friends, relatives, co-workers, strangers and anyone who will listen.Store managers are often the last to hear complaints, and often find out only when
37、 their regular customers decide to frequent their competitors, according to a study jointly conducted by Verde group and Wharton school.“Storytelling hurts retailers and entertains consumers.” Said Paula Courtney, president of the Verde group. “The store loses the customer, but the shopper must also
38、 find a replacement.”On average, every unhappy customer will complain to at least four other, and will no longer visit the specific store for every dissatisfied customer, a store will lose up to three more due to negative reviews. The resulting “snowball effect” can be disastrous to retailers.Accord

Ranked second and third were grocery and electronics customers.The most common complaints include filled parking lots, cluttered(塞满了的) shelves, overloaded racks, out-of-stock items, long check-out lines, and rude sal

Some hired flag wavers to direct customers to empty peaking spaces. This guidance got rid of the need for customers to circle the parking lot endlessly,
41、 and avoided confrontation between those eyeing the same parking space.Retailers can relieve the headaches by redesigning store layouts, pre-stocking sales items, hiring speedy and experienced cashiers, and having sales representatives on hand to answer questions. Most importantly, salespeople shoul
42、d be diplomatic and polite with angry customers.“Retailers whore responsive and friendly are more likely to smooth over issues than those who arent so friendly.” Said professor Stephen Hoch. “Maybe something as simple as a greeter at the store entrance would help.”Customers can also improve future s
43、hopping experiences by filing complaints to the retailer, instead of complaining to the rest of the world. Retailers are hard-pressed to improve when they have no idea what is wrong.63. Why are store managers often the last to hear complaints?A. Few customers believe the service will be improved.B.
44、Customers would rather relate their unhappy experiences to people around them.C. Customers have no easy access to store managers.D. Most customers wont bother to complain even if they have had unhappy experiences.64. Shop owners often hire moonlighting police as parking attendants so that hoppers .A
