pt)

When you enter the supermarkets, you see shelves full of food. You walk in the aisles
between the shelves. You push a shopping cart and put your food in it.

You probably hear soft, slow music as you walk along the aisles. If you hear fast music,
you walk quickly. The supermarket plays slow music, you walk slowly and have more time to
buy things.

Maybe you go to the meat department first. There is some meat on sale, and you want to
find it. The manager of the supermarket knows where customers enter the meat department.
The cheaper meat is at the other end of the meat department, away from where the customers
enter. You have to walk by all the expensive meat before you find the cheaper meat. Maybe
you will buy some of the expensive meat instead of the meat on sale.

The dairy department sells milk and milk products such as butter and cheese. Many
customers like milk that has only little butterfat in it. One store has three different containers
of low fat milk. One says ‘1% fat’ on the container. The second says ‘99 percent (99%) fat
free’. The third says ‘Low fat’ in big letters and 1% in small letters. As you can see, all the
milk has the same amount of fat. The milk is all the same. The amount of milk in each
container is also the same. However, in this store they cost three different amounts of money.

Maybe the customers will buy the milk that costs the most.
81. What is the main topic of this passage?
