Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow: Procter & Gamble’s Head & Shoulders shampoo is the biggest selling anti-dandruff shampoo in the world. When sales began to drop, Head & Shoulders had been on the market for more than 25 years in some countries. Procter & Gamble therefore considered the possibility that changes in consumer needs and wants may have occurred and could explain the declining sales. Market research identified that consumers were not comfortable with the brand’s core promise that it would get rid of dandruff. Therefore, the decision was made by Procter & Gamble to alter Head & Shoulders’ promise to one that gives people beautiful hair and keeps hair clean. The brand turned away from presenting dandruff as a disease that needs to be treated and set out with the intention of making consumers comfortable with purchasing and being associated with Head & Shoulders. As part of the launch for Head & Shoulders in Australia, a “celebrity ball” was held at Sydney’s Star City Casino in September 1999, in order to link Head & Shoulders with glamour and to steer away from the discomforting image of an anti-dandruff shampoo. The launch also featured an advertisement with Courtney Cox. Within three months of Head & Shoulder being launched in Australia, it had established itself as the number four shampoo in the Australian market. Consumers were obviously more inclined to purchase a product whose main feature was glamour, rather than battling dandruff. Choose the best answer: 1. Where do you think the passage above is probably from? a. a course of banking b. a brochure of recruiting c. a school brochure d. a newspaper 2. What is the passage about? a. The history of Procter & Gamble b. A kind of product from Procter & Gamble c. Consumer file of Procter & Gamble d. The financial statement of Procter & Gamble 3. Which of the following statement is FALSE? a. Procter & Gamble launched Head & Shoulders 25 years ago. b. Market research guides Procter & Gamble in making dandruff shampoo. c. A celebrity ball took place when Procter & Gamble launched Head & Shoulders in London. d. Procter & Gamble decided to make Head & Shoulders the flagship product. What does each of the following underlined words / phrases refer to? 4. “The brand turned away ” (Paragraph 1) 5. “ a product whose main feature ” (Paragraph 3) Which words/ phrases in the passage mean the following? 6. indication that something may be expected to occur: 7. placed in a position: 8. careful study in order to discover new facts or information: Fill in each blank with one suitable word from the passage. Put it in its correct form or tense if necessary. 9. There are vast of ice cream in the hot weather. 10. Which of toothpaste do you prefer? II.
