B Picky, Picky Scientists have no idea exactly why birds choose certain objects to build their nests. But scientists know that the
21、main reason birds build nests is to keep their babies safe,warm and healthy. Baby birds grow faster and are healthier when they are warm. They also learn to fly and leave the nests sooner than birds without warm homes. What A Yarn (纱纱)Is Orioles Nest Yarn is big on an orioles shopping list during ne
22、st building. Scientists are still trying to work out why so many birds choose white yarn over other colors for nest building.

23、ng it to build nests, they also need to use lots of natural things. Long grass,dried sticks,spiders silk and mud are some of the natural ingredients that are good for nests, too.

24、es on a tree branch. Fill the box freely with nest building goodies. Hang the box on a tree and watch birds climb on board to pick through the junk to find their treasures.

28、our curiosity about them. When you are curious about other people, you will want to discover some of the interesting ways that they are similar to you. When you are curious about them, youll also be interested to discover the ways in which they think differently and live differently from you. When y
29、ou have curiosity about others, you will be much less self-conscious and your conversations will work a lot better. Instead of worrying yourself, “What can I say next that wont sound stupid?”, you will be focused on learning more about the other person. Making small talk with strangers can be tricky
30、.Weve all heard the advice that we should pick something out of our immediate environment and use that as a main point to start our small talk with the other person.

32、person for clues they will give you about what is really interesting to them.

33、e conversation a little bit more personal. Ask the other person for his or her opinion about something that is a bit more personal but not extremely so.

The products displayed（展示)at the entrance? Or the soft background music? But have you ever noticed the smell? Unless it
37、is bad, the answer is likely to be no. But while a shops scent may not be outstanding compared with sights and sounds,it is certainly there.And it is provided as an increasing powerful tool in encouraging people to purchase. A brand store has become famous for its distinctive scent which floats thro
38、ugh the fairly dark hall and out to the entrancevia scent machines.A smell may be attractive but it may not just be used for freshening air.

39、es to the best shopping streets in Pairs,scent is just as important to a brands success as the quality of its window displays and goods on sales.

41、 minute customers step through the door to the moment they leave. Another brand store seeks to be much more than a shop, but rather a destination. And scent is just one way to achieve this.
