7．The iPhone，the iPad：each of Apple's products sounds cool and has become a fad（一时的风尚）． Apple has cleverly taken advantage of the power of the letter"i"？and many other brands are following suit．The BBC's 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 London's Independent newspaper was launched last week under the name"i"．
In general，single-letter prefixes （前缀） have been popular since the 199Cb，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 Independent's i，it s no surprise that they've selected this fashionable name．
But it's hard to see what's so special about the letter"i"．Why not use"a"，"b"，or"c"instead？According to Tony Thome，head of the Language Center at King's College，London，"i"works because its meaning has become ambiguous．When Apple uses"i"，no one knows whether it means Internet，information，individual or interactive，Thome told BBC Magazines．"Even when Apple created the iPod，it seems it didn't 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 is 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 fads．From the 1900s to 1990s，products with"2000"in their names became fashionable as the year was associated with all things advanced and modem．However，as we entered the new century，the trend inevitably disappeared．
66．People use iPlayer toC．
A．listen to music                                    B．make a call
C．watch TV programs online                           D．read newspapers
67．We can infer that the Independent's"i"is aimed atA   
A．young readers                                      B．old readers
C．fashionable women                                  D．engineers
68．The underlined word"ambiguous"means"B"．
A．popular         B．uncertain        C．definite        D．unique
69．Nowadays，-the"i"term often reminds people of the products whichA．
A．portable                            B．environmentally friendly
C．advanced                             D．recyclable
70．The writer suggests thatD．
A．"i"products are often of high quality
B．iTeddy is alive bear
C．the letter"b"replaces letter"i"to name the products
D．the popularity of"i"products may not last long．

5．When Charles Stratton was five，he stopped growing．His mother took him to see the famous showman，P．T．Barnum．Mr．．Barnum thought a small person would be the perfect addition to his show．He hired Charles'parents along with him，and they traveled the world together．
He gave the two-foot-tall Charles a name，General Tom Thumb． He taught Tom how to sing，dance，act and tell jokes．When he felt Tom was ready to perform on stage，he made up ads．To stir up great interest，he said that Tom was eleven years old and had come from England．
During the show，Tom fought battles pretendedly with tall people．He also danced upon a wooden plate held by a person who was eight feet tall．Tom's act was very popular and brought in a lot of money．By the time Tom was an adult，he had grown very rich．He had become a billionaire at the age of twenty five．
Fortunately for Tom，Mr．．Barnum added more little people to his show，and Tom became lucky in love as well．One of the little people was Lavinia Warren，a schoolteacher．Tom was able to win her love，and they married．
The ceremony and reception were the talk of the town．They were attended by many rich and famous people and by about 2000guests．Crowds filled the streets of New York to have a look at their tiny wedding marriage．The couple even met with President Abraham Lincoln on their honeymoon just before going to live in Tom's house in Connecticut．
Their wedding，which took place during the Civil War，provided a welcome escape from the sad problems of war．Not willing to let this bit of sunshine fade，communities throughout the country sponsored"Tom Thumb"weddings．In these weddings，small boys and girls，all dressed up，went through marriage ceremony for fun．

6．This Monday，the nation will start to celebrate Presidents'Day，just seven days before George Washington's birthday．Everyone agrees that day is a holiday，but is it just to celebrate George Washington's Birthday？What about Abraham Lincoln？Some government offices call it Presidents'Day．Others say the holiday is officially Washington's Birthday．Confused yet？
George Washington was elected the country's first President on April 30，1789．Soon after，Americans began publicly celebrating his birthday．Presidential historians say the actual date of George Washington's birth is February 11，1732．But a change in the calendar system 20years later shifted all dates，making Washington's birthday February 22，which is now well accepted．In 1879．Congress made Washington's birthday an official federal holiday．It was the first federal holiday to celebrate an individual's birthday．In 1968，Congress passed the Monday Holidays Act，which moved the holiday to the third Monday in February．The new law did not change the holiday's name．It was still called Washington's Birthday，even though some lawmakers wanted to call it Presidents'Day to include Abraham Lincoln，whose actual birthday is February 12．
Many people argue that the holiday should celebrate all past Presidents．They feel Lincoln should be honored for his role in preserving the nation during the Civil War and helping to free slaves．Others feel the holiday should only honor Washington．the country's first President．They say shifting the focus away from Washington would mean future generations of kids would not know about the Father of Our Country．
Laws have been introduced in Congress over the years to require use of the term"George Washington's Birthday．"but none of those laws have been passed．Meanwhile，many state governments and school districts now use the term"Presidents'Day．"Many store use it to promote holiday sales．
Should the holiday honor Washington，Washington and Lincoln，or all past Presidents？Write to emailbag@timeforkids．com and tell us what you think．

7．Rebecca，who is a 25-year-old woman，has a rare condition．She can remember all the events she has experienced in her life．The events are so vivid，as if they happened just moments ago．But her vivid memories often become a reality．Rebecca said，"When I relive memories，the emotions come back．So if it's something that happened when I was younger，my emotions are about what I felt then．I also re-experience pain．For example，I remember falling over and hurting my left knee when I was three．When talking about it now，I'm getting pain in my left knee．"
However，there are times when Rebecca's memories prove to be too overwhelming，and she has learnt relaxation and mindfulness（聚神） techniques to solve．"At school，it is a hindrance．I'm not very quick at processing things，so there is always so much going through my mind．At night，I have to sleep with the radio on and a soft light．If it's too dark or quiet，my mind just recalls all these memories and I can't sleep，"Rebecca said．

Rebecca and her mother Mrs．Barnes got in touch with the University of California in 2011．It was there that Rebecca knew she had Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory （HSAM）．It's reported that Rebecca is one of just 80people worldwide，who have HASM．"Finding out about HASM has been such a positive experience．Now，Rebecca has been more positive and able to do things independently，which has been excellent，"Mrs．Barnes said．
