people say that France's capital is one of the most difficult places to meet people．The complaints(抱怨)of this lonely group have respired a new phenomenon known as“supermarket dating．”At Galerie Lafayette Gourmet，singles can shop for more than just the items on their grocery list. They can look for someone who has blue eyes，brown hair, and is 1.8 meters tall，or whatever may be on their romantic shopping list.

At this Paris location single people of all ages can schedule their shopping for Thursday nights between 6：30 and 9：00 P.m. When they walk through the door，they pick up a purple basket to advise that they are looking for love．They try to arrive early because the baskets disappear quickly, and then they have to wait in line for their turn to wander the store aisles(过道)． With purple baskets in hand，shoppers can consider their romantic options while they pick out their groceries. When they are ready to pay，they can go to the checkout line for singles who want to chat.

Most of the people who look for love in the supermarket are skeptical of Internet dang. They know that it is easy to embellish(美化)one's appearance or to lie about one's age over the Internet. The supermarket，on the other hand，is considered a safe and casual environment in which to meet a potential match．In addition，what one finds in another's grocery basket can say a thing or two about that person's character or intentions．Buying pet food can be a man's way of showing a potential match that he has a sensitive side．Women who fill their baskets with low-fat food show their healthy style of riving．These days it's possible to find much more than food at a grocery store.

Generally there are two ways to name typhoons: the number-based method and the list-based method. Following the number-based method，typhoons are coded with various types of numbers such as a 4-digit or a 6-digit code．For example，the 14th typhoon in 2003 can be labeled either as Typhoon 0314 or Typhoon 200314．The disadvantage of this method，however，is that a number is hard to remember．The list-based method，on the other hand，is based on the list of typhoon names chosen in advance by a committee，and is more widely used.
