Headquarters play a key role in deciding on the chain's product assortment(搭配),placing bulk orders for the goods to get quantity discounts, distributing the goods to the individual store units, and establishing pricing, promotion, and other standard merchandising policies for the units. Finally,the chains often develop a similar architectural pattern to increase each unit's visibility and identifiability in the public eye.

    Travel and Tourism
    1 Remote places with strange-sounding names attract the traveller with promises of excitement, different forms of entertainment, and new kinds of food. The urge to travel is as old as civilization. Hundreds of years age. A young man from Venice named Marco Polo set out with his father for China, and his writings opened the Far East to Europeans of his time.
    2 The modern travel industry is organized to meet every need and desire of the individual traveller. While travel was once an uncertain and dangerous event, it is now an easily planned adventure that has been revolutionized by great improvements in transportation, computer technology, and networks of international communication.
    3 The individual traveller is concerned about where to go, how to get there, where to stay, where to eat, and what to eat. The travel industry is organized to meet these concerns in a variety of ways;travel agents and tour companies, transport companies, hotel arrangement and restaurant reservation systems, and local of national tourism boards.
    4 The age of international travel was revolutionized on Oct. 26, 1958, when Pan American World Airways flew a Boeing 707 jet airplane from New York City to Paris with 123 people on board. Jets cut long-distance air travel time in half. In the following decades, the airline industry expanded greatly and used a variety of airplanes.
    5 Eating out poses few problems for a tourist who speaks the language of the country that he is visiting, but menus in other languages can be confusing and frustrating. It has been suggested that menus be printed in several languages, and restaurants in many major tourist centers now follow this practice.
