Answer 2

In the past, Britons mainly drank  tea; but in recent years, coffee  has become increasingly popular.

Chains of coffee shops, such as Starbucks, have opened in city centres across the country and now more than 80 per cent of Britons visit a coffee shop at least once a week.

Spending on coffee rose by 15 per cent since last year.

A recent  report shows that Starbucks is the chain that is growing most  rapidly and has a market share of 25 per cent. Costa Coffee is a close competitor with a 21 per cent market share.

The number of coffee shops in city centres  has now reached а maximum level, and the chains are trying to expand into small towns.

This could be bad news for small cafes: if the chains continue to expand, many small outlets would  go out of business.

We asked two consumers for their opinions on coffee shops.

Matt Wingford, an accountant, says: 'I like the coffee - it's excellent.

But my local coffee shop is often very noisy .

 I would go more often if it  was quieter.'

Cathy Mansfield, a student, says: 'It's great. My friends and I go there   regularly.

But the coffee is quite expensive. I will  drink more coffee if it is  cheaper.'

Instead of 3encouraging staff and praising them for their ideas, he put pressure on them. He tried to make them work harder and longer. This didn't increase their 4 efficiency_ : it reduced it. In fact, as the team became more and more stressed, their 5 creativity  declined. Their product ideas were unpopular and failed to satisfy customer 6  demand . Now the company is losing market share and needs to find a 7 radical  solution.
