A team of researchers, led by Akshay Rao of University of Minnesota, looked at consumers’ (2)_____ to discounting. Shoppers, they found, much prefer getting something extra free to getting something cheaper. The main reason is that most people are(3)_____ at fractions.
Consumers often struggle to realise,(4)_____, that a 50% increase in(5)_____ is the same as a 33% discount in price. They(6)_____ assume the former is better value.

In another experiment, this time on his undergraduates, Mr. Rao offered two deals on loose coffee beans: 33% extra free or 33%(10)_____ the price.

A、for example
B、as a result
C、in particular
D、by contrast
答案

解析
