2、brands are following suit. The BBCs iPlayer - which allows Web users to watch TV programs on the Internet -adopted the title in 2008. A lovely bear - popular in the US and UK - that plays music and video is called iTeddy.A slimmed-down version of Londons Independent newspaper was launched last week。

3、under the name i.In general, single-letter prefixes (前缀) have been popular since the 1990s, when terms such as e-mail and e-commerce first came into use.Most i products are targeted at young people and considering the major readers of Independents i, its no surprise that theyve selected this fashion 。

4、able name.But its hard to see whats so special about the letter i. Why not use a, b, or c instead?According to Tony Thorne, head of the Language Center at Kings College, London, i works because its meaning has become ambiguous. When Apple uses i, no one knows whether it means Internet, information,。

5、individual or interactive, Thorne told BBC Magazines. Even when Apple created the iPod, it seems it didnt have one clear definition, he says.However, thanks to Apple, the term is now associated with portability (轻便) .adds Thorne.Clearly the letter i also agrees with the idea that the Western World i 。

6、s centered on the individual. Each person believes they have their own needs, and we love personalized products for this reason.Along with Google and blog, readers of BBC Magazines voted i as one of the top 20 words that have come to define the last decade.But as history shows, people grow tired of。

7、fads. From the 1900s to 1990s, products with 2000 in their names became fashionable as the year was associated with all things advanced and modern. However, as we entered the new century, the trend inevitably disappeared.1. People use iPlayer to __________. A. listen to music B. make a call C. watch 。

10、love with a statue he has created. Bernard Shaw borrowed the theme for his play Pygmalionlater turned into the musical My Fair Lady- in which Professor Henry Higgins changes the Cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle, and loves her even as he teaches her how to speak proper English. Psychologists, too, 。

11、 have picked up the theme, researching what they call the “Pygmalion effect”. The finding, as social psychologist Robert Rosenthal puts it, is that “what one person expects of another can come to serve as a self-fulfilling(应验的) prediction.” Rosenthal and his coauthor Lenore Jacobson created the term 。

12、 to describe the amazing results of an experiment they carried out in a California school in 1965. Students took a test that was said to be able to identify “growth spurters”-those who were to make great progress academically. Teachers were given the names of pupils who were about to progress intell 。

13、ectually- and sure enough, these students showed a significantly greater gain in performance over their classmates when tested again at the end of the year.But here is the thing: the “spurters” were actually chosen at random. The only difference between them and their classmates, Rosenthal writes, “ 。

14、was in the mind of the teachers.” And yet the expectations held in the mind of the teachers can make a big difference.Just how do high expectations promote greater achievement? Its not some magical act. Rather, it is higher expectations that lead teachers to act differently in some special ways to e 。

18、ly becoming more popular amongst farmers and food processors. Crops are being genetically modified to resist insects, plant diseases, insecticides(杀虫剂). Plants are also modified to look bigger and better. Unfortunately the end goal isnt providing nutrition for people, its to increase profit margins。

19、and to make food look better. In fact many modern fruits and vegetables are twice the size of what they used to be while having far less vitamins, and not tasting good either.
