    Long ago, people believed that in the future we would work less, have more free time and get more relaxed. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}

These are shorter versions of traditional stories, specially written for "busy parents" who want to save time! Some answer phones now have "quick playback" buttons so that we can replay people's messages faster— we can't waste time listening to people speaking at the normal speed! {#blank#}4{#/blank#} Ten years ago when people went to art galleries they spent seconds looking at each picture.

How to Save Water

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#}, but only 1% is easily accessible to you. Water conservation can be simple, and it starts at home. Whether you're taking showers, doing laundry, saving the water in a pool, or choosing your food, there are several strategies that will help you save water.

    Take shorter showers.

    Taking a shower uses roughly one third of the amount of water used in taking a bath. So'skip the bath and take a short shower instead. Take a CD player into the bathroom with you to challenge yourself. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}. Cutting down your shower time by just two minutes can save 10 gallons of water.

    Make sure you're washing a full load of laundry.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#}. Put a full load of laundry in so that you'll be sure not to waste water. When washing your clothes, use the economy mode — this will save you both water and electricity!

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#}.

    If you have a pool, using a pool cover at night during the warmer months helps to prevent evaporation. In some places, emptying and refilling a pool is under severe restrictions, or even banned, so preserving this precious resource is crucial.

Eat less meat and dairy

    Growing animal feed uses tons of water, not to mention the amount of water used in the rest of the meat and dairy production process. The more meat and dairy you eat, the more animals are needed to keep up with the demand, so try to limit your intake of such foods.

    Defrost frozen food in the refrigerator.

Consumer behavior is the study of how people make purchase decisions to satisfy their needs or desires and how their emotional, mental and behavioral responses influence the buying decision. By understanding it, businesses can make their marketing efforts to focus on specific groups, improve brand images, and predict the trends. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}Anyway, understanding consumer behavior is vital to any successful marketing strategy.

Last but not least, our purchasing power plays a significant role in influencing our behavior. Unless you're a billionaire, you'll consider your budget before making a purchase decision. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

However, if you don't have the money for it, you won't buy it.

A. Education levels and social factors can have an impact.

B. Consumer behavior is often influenced by different factors.

C. The product might be excellent and the marketing could be great.

D. This knowledge can also help businesses stay ahead of their competition.

E. Vegetarians, no matter how many hamburger ads they see, won't start eating meat.
