Market research analysts help companies figure out what to sell, who will buy their products and services, and how to promote them. They design surveys that are used to help discover potential customers' preferences. These marketing professionals then train and supervise interviewers who conduct these surveys online, by telephone, or through interviews with individuals or focus groups. In addition to taking surveys, market research analysts are responsible for keeping track of client industry trends and general marketing trends, as well as forecasting these markets to provide companies with proposals and information of the products, services, promotions and all relevant data to help management in their marketing decisions. There are now new tools that analysts can use, such as geofencing, which uses GPS or similar technology to build a virtual fence around a business and offer targeted advertisements to a customer’s phone as he or she walks through a store. Eye-tracking, which monitors how your eye travels around a website, is another technology market research analysts use. The process of collecting and analysing data is logical and quantifiable; figuring out why target audiences might be attracted to a particular product is not. This is why some of the most successful market analysts seem to understand human emotions and psychology as much as they understand logic. Trang 2/5

Coral reefs are some of the most diverse ecosystems in the world, housing tens of thousands of marine species. With their hardened surfaces, corals are sometimes mistaken as being rocks. And, because they are attached, “taking root” to the seafloor, they are often mistaken for plants. However, unlike rocks, corals are alive. And unlike plants, corals do not make their own food. Corals are in fact animals. Appearing as solitary forms in the fossil record more than 400 million years ago, corals are extremely ancient animals that evolved into modern reef-building forms over the last 25 million years. Coral reefs are the largest structures on earth of biological origin. Coral reefs are unique and complex systems. Rivaling old growth forests in longevity of their ecological communities, well-developed reefs reflect thousands of years of history. Corals are ancient animals related to jellyfish and anemones. The branch or mound that we often call “a coral” is actually made up of thousands of tiny animals called polyps. A coral polyp is an invertebrate that can be no bigger than a pinhead to up to 30 centimeters (1 foot) in diameter. The polyps extend their tentacles at night to sting and ingest tiny organisms called plankton and other small creatures. Each polyp has a saclike body and a mouth that is encircled by stinging tentacles. The polyp uses calcium carbonate (limestone) from seawater to build a hard, cup-shaped skeleton. This skeleton protects the soft, delicate body of the polyp. Reefs only occur in shallow areas that are reachable by sunlight because of the relationship between coral and algae. Various types of microscopic algae, known as Symbiodinium, live inside of the coral, providing them with food and helping them to grow faster. There are over 2,500 kinds (species) of corals. About 1,000 are the hard corals that build coral reefs. Other corals are soft corals. Soft corals have skeletons that are flexible and can bend with the water. The three main types of coral reefs are fringing reefs, barrier reefs, and coral atolls. The most common type of reef is the fringing reef. This type of reef grows seaward directly from the shore. They form borders along the shoreline and surrounding islands. When a fringing reef continues to grow upward from a volcanic island that has sunk entirely below sea level, an atoll is formed. Atolls are usually circular or oval in shape, with an open lagoon in the center. Any reef that is called a barrier reef gets its name because its presence protects the shallow waters along the shore from the open sea. That protection promotes the survival of many types of sea plant and animal life. (Adapted from Question 36. Which of the following could best reflect the main purpose of the author in the passage?
