A local grocery store here is remodeling 一家附近的杂货店正在翻新改造 and not a single one of the changes is good 这些改造却一个也不好 for those of us who shop there. 对于我们这些在那里买东西的人来说 The grocery aisles have been rearranged 杂货店里的货廊被重新整理过了 with some going in one direction 有些朝向这边 and others going in another. 有些又朝向相反的方向 The aisles have been pushed closer together too 货廊从两边向中间变窄了 making it harder to get through them. 行走其间变得更加艰难 All of the items have been moved from their usual spots as well 而且，所有的商品都从它原本的位置挪开了。 It seems like 似乎 all of these changes have been for the purpose 所有这些变化都只有一个目的 of slowing the shoppers down 就是让买东西的人动作更慢一些 so they will make more impulse buys 他们就会做出更多的冲动消费 and give the store bigger profits. 让杂货店赚更多的钱 As I walked through the store today 今天，当我在店里走动的时候 no one was smiling |
