No one would be willing to pay one-third of the price for the packaging or wrapping of what he or she purchases. But over-packaging has become a disease that leads to an __50__ waste of resources and __51__ environmental pollution. The wasted packaging materials are __52__ to be worth about 280 billion yuan annually. And such packages and wrappings thrown away by customers __53__ up half of the volume of solid waste in cities. __54__, it is high time that regulations were __55__ to stop enterprises from spending too much on unnecessary packaging and wrapping. To produce paper packaging or wrapping, many more trees have to be cut down. Over-packaging also limits the interest of consumers when they have to spend quite a high percentage on something that they will have to throw into the dustbin. The simple truth is that the more a producer spends on packaging, the __56__ the products it sells will be. Product packaging and wrapping used to be very simple 30 years ago. 'Shabby' was the word many had used to __57__ the way Chinese products were packaged. And shabby packaging was blamed for making Chinese products __58__ in the international market. It is __59__ to pay enough attention to packaging or wrapping products in such a manner that they can be __60__ to customers' eyes. But that does not definitely justify that packaging should even outshine what is inside. In the Chinese proverb, “maidu huanzhu,” the buyer returns the pearl and just keeps the case because the __61__ is too fancy and luxurious. It not only laughs at the poor __62__ of the buyer, but also criticizes the unnecessary __63__ the seller has made in making the case. Another message from the proverb is that over-packaging helps cultivate an __64__ consuming attitude - to buy fancy-looking stuff but not what they really need. 小题1: A．enormous B．available C．invisible D．illegal 小题2: A．results from B．contributes to C．depends on D．calls for 小题3: A．predicted B．required C．acknowledged D．estimated 小题4: A．look B．hold C．make D．add 小题5: A．However B．Therefore C．Otherwise D．Furthermore 小题6: A．observed B．broken C．adopted D．forbidden 小题7: A．better B．more expensive C．cheaper D．more useful 小题8: A．recommend B．praise C．consider D．criticize 小题9: A．popular B．impressive C．unattractive D．qualified 小题10: A．ridiculous B．incredible C．unnecessary D．reasonable 小题11: A．accustomed B．appealing C．similar D．grateful 小题12: A．former B．next C．other D．latter 小题13: A．judgment B．eyesight C．appetite D．health 小题14: A．contributions B．efforts C．progress D．use 小题15: A．unfamiliar B．unhealthy C．unnatural D．unavoidable
