34、ices down is well known. But it is hard to measure by just how much, because prices vary for all sorts of reasons, from differences in labour costs and rents to taxes. Rising to the challenge is a new paper in The Economic Journal by Giacomo Calzolari, Andrea Ichino, Francesco Manaresi and Viki Nell
35、as,economists at the European University Institute, Bologna University and the Italian central bank. They looked at pharmacies(药房) and specifically at customers who may be particularly easy to rip off: new parents.Using data for 2007 to 2010 covering about a fifth of pharmacies in Italy, the researc
36、hers measured the way in which prices of hygiene products for babies changed as the number of babies varied. They took advantage of a peculiar law from the 1960s, according to which regions with at most 7,500 people are allowed just one pharmacy (supposedly to keep the quality of services high). The
37、y compared prices in places with populations just below this threshold, and just above.The products studied included some 3,000 varieties of shampoos, bath foams, baby wipes, creams and so on. Many are also used by adults on themselves. Some people, for example, prefer suncream labelled “for childre
38、n” because of its high level of protection. When raising prices for these products, even a pharmacist with a monopoly(垄断) must consider the risk that adult users will switch to products that are not aimed at children. But a rise in the number of babies, and hence buyers who are parents, could tip_th
39、e_scales towards price increases. By contrast, the pharmacist should already be charging as much as parents are willing to pay for products without adult users, such as nappies.The scholars found that pharmacists raised prices when there were more new parentsbut only in regions with a single pharmac
40、y, and not for nappies. In monopoly areas a doubling of the number of babies from one month to the next (not unusual in a small population) coincided with a 5% increase in the price of the basket of babyhygiene products.The study is timely. Italys government has started to loosen some of the 6many r
41、estrictions that stop competition in the pharmacy sector (though not yet the one that the researchers relied on). But such regulations are plentiful in many other lines of business, and not just in Italy. The consumers who pay the price are often those who find it hardest to travel to shop aroundfor
42、 example, people with crying babies on their hands.( )58. Whats the purpose of the study?A. To review the function of the special law for pharmacies.B. To make clear the relation between competition and prices.C. To collect the information on pharmacy business in Italy.D. To gather the data on hygie
43、ne products for babies in Italy.( )59. The underlined phrase “tip the scales” in Paragraph 3 means “_”A. push the move B. keep the level C. control the rise D. break the balance( )60. The governments new measures will greatly benefit _A. pharmacy owners B. local merchants C. new parents D. adult use
44、rsCListen carefully to the footsteps in the family home, especially if it has wooden floors, and you can probably work out who it is that is walking about. The features most commonly used to identify people are faces, voices, finger prints and retinal scans. But their “behavioural biometrics”, such
45、as the way they walk, are also giveaways.Researchers have, for several years, used video cameras and computers to analyse peoples gaits, and are now quite good at it. But translating such knowledge into a practical identification system can be trickyespecially if that system is supposed to be hidden
46、. Cameras are often visible, are hard to set up, require good lighting and may have their view blocked by other people. So a team led by Krikor Ozanyan of the University of Manchester, in England and Patricia Scully of the National University of Ireland, in Galway have been looking for a better way
47、to recognise gait. Their answer: pressuresensitive mats.In themselves, such mats are nothing new. They have been part of security systems for donkeys years. But Dr Ozanyan and Dr Scully use a complex version that can record the amount of pressure applied in different places as someone walks across i
48、t. These measurements form a pattern unique to the walker. Dr Ozanyan and Dr Scully therefore turned, as is now common for anything to do with pattern recognition, to an Artificial Intelligence system that uses machine learning to recognise such patterns.It seems to work. In a study published earlier this year the two researchers tested their system on a database of footsteps trodden by 127 different people. They found that its error rate in identifying who was who was a mere 0.7%. And Dr Scully says that even without a database of footsteps to work with the system can determine someones se
