With the everincreasing popularity of online shopping , users'
reviews are becoming more and more important.Given that you can't
actually touch,see,smell or hear the product you're buying online,these
reviews will provide you with valuable information on the product
itself.But how far can you trust them?
Barnaby Bicken had an unpleasant experience.“I took some friends
to a restaurant in Manchester that had excellent reviews on a food
website.However,the service was awful and we were ignored most of the
time.Later , I wrote a review on the same site only to be told that the
review site owner would not accept any bad reviews—only the good
ones.”
So,how can you get a useful review?Web expert Hilary Saunders
has a few top tips.“If there are only a few reviews of a place,there is a
good chance they have been planted by friends or enemies.If there are
many reviews,start by dropping the most extreme comments.Also,watch
out for similarities in style between reviews from people with different
usernames , particularly if those reviews were placed about the same
time.The best thing is to look for reviewers who show some relevant
knowledge of the product they are reviewing.”
Some companies seem to be contributing to the problem.A
publishing house offered gift vouchers(购物礼券) to anyone who would 7
give their textbook a fivestar review.But not all online companies
operate like this.“Amazon works hard to keep the completeness of its
customer reviews ,”said a spokesperson for the company. “We have
very clear guidelines,and when a customer reports a review that he feels
is inappropriate,we check,and may take it down.”
So,next time you see that fivestar review for something you want
to buy,be aware—it could be the work of a false reviewer!
1.What does“them”in Para.1 refer to?
A.Products. B.Users.
C.Reviews. D.Buyers.
2.What does Barnaby Bicken's story imply?
A.The food served was awful.
B.Not all reviews are believable.
C.Many people are easily cheated.
D.He likes to write bad reviews.
3.What reviews of products are useful?
A.Those by competitors.
B.Those by different users.
C.Those with good comments.
D.Those with related information.8
4.How does Amazon deal with the customer reviews?
A.It helps to finish the reviews.
B.It pays attention to the bad reviews.
C.It offers gifts for the good reviews.
D.It tries to make the reviews objective.
