Packaging (包装) is a very important form of advertising. A package sometimes motivates people to buy products. For example, a little child might ask for a breakfast food contained in a box with a picture of a TV character.
Some packages suggest that a buyer will get something for nothing. For example, although a similar product in plain container (容器) might cost less, people often prefer to buy the product in a reusable glass or dish, because they believe the container is free. How ever, the cost of the container is added to the cost of the product.
The size of a package also motivates a buyer. Maybe the package has “ Economy Size“ or “Family Size“ printed on it. This suggests that the larger size has the most products for the least money. But to find out the truth, a buyer has to know how the product is sold and the price of the basic unit.

Subject: Air-conditioning Installation Costs for East Hall
Date: June 4, 2015
I am writing to inform you of the costs of installing air-conditioning for the seven offices and two studio classrooms in East Hall.
Office and Classroom Installation
Estimates were obtained from three contractors on the costs of covering the offices and class-rooms. All these three were in the $20, 000 to $25, 000 range. The work would take about three weeks.
Because the central unit would be installed on the roof, some noise problems might occur during a four-or five-day period.
Additional Installation
Because a larger installation, including a more powerful central unit, would be necessary to handle the halls and stairways, an additional $ 6, 000 would be required for the equipment. If this additional work were delayed until a later time, a new central unit would be required along with changes in the pipe way.
Subject:【R1】______Costs for East Hall

b. A more powerful【R4】______, is needed to handle the halls and stairways.
