In big cities, Americans do their grocery (食口雜貨)shopping at large supermarkets. They usually shop once or twice a week, and when they go through the check-out stand (結帳付款出口), their shopping carts are full of groceries.
A large supermarket is big business. Although mainly selling foods of different kinds, supermarkets also handle other things including school and garden supplies, beer, toothpaste, toys, clothing, magazines, books and even medicines. The supermarket tries to meet the housewife's every need so that when she leaves, she'll shop nowhere else.
In order to attract customers, supermarkets have tries to make shopping as pleasant as possible. Some of them have flowers and trees in the parking lots(停車場). Some have roofs over the walks so that shoppers can walk from their cars to the store without having to worry about snow, rain or the hot sun. Most of the stores are air-conditioned(空調的).

In the 1930's, a lot of people in the USA were out of work. Among these people was a man named Alfred Butts. He always has an interest in word games and so, to fill his time, he planned a game which he called“Lexico”. However, he was not completely satisfied with the game, so he made a number of changes to it and, in time, changed its name from“Lexico”to“Alph”and then to“Criss·Cross”. He wanted to make some money from his new game, but he didn't have any real commercial（商業性的）success.
In 1939, Butts happened to meet a man called Jim Brunot who showed an interest in the new game. The two men worked together on developing the game and in 1984 it was offered for sale in the United States under its new name--“Scrabble”.

Then, in 1952 the manager of Macy's department store in New York, Jack Strauss, happened to play“Scrabble”while he was on holiday. He thought it was a wonderful game and, when the went back to work after his holiday, he insisted that Macy's should stock（儲備）the game and make an effort to call the public's attention to it.
