12.Have you ever wished to have an umbrella that makes your hands free?Alan Kaufman has come up with the"Nubrella",which means"new"+"umbrella".It is the first truly hands-free umbrella in the world.The inventor says that it stops rain,wind and snow and can keep your head,face and hair dry."I never planned to invent a product.I just noticed a problem and came up with a solution,"said the inventor.The idea for the invention began on one rainy day,when Mr.Kaufman was standing in one of his stores.He began to look at people's umbrellas.He found that they had to try very hard to keep their umbrellas in the right place.At that moment an idea came into his mind.He ran to his desk and drew a picture.In this way,the Nubrella was born.
One cool feature of the Nubrella is that you don't hold it like a normal umbrella; you wear it.The shoulder straps (肩带) of the Nubrella allow people to be fully hands-free,so when walking in the rain with the Nubrella,you are able to use your cell phone or drink a hot cup of coffee.Also,the Nubrella will never be inverted (颠倒) in the wind.The new umbrella is far safer than traditional ones,because it has no sharp points.

分析 本文讲了一个关于新式雨伞的设计.新雨伞的设计灵感来源于一个雨天,它是世界上第一把不用手拿的雨伞.新发明出来的伞叫Nubrella,是New和Umbrella的组合词.
这把雨伞不是用手拿的,而是穿在身上的,肩带可以让它固定在身上,不需要用手.

From;Robert Renfield robertyaho@nemo.com To:Citizens'Bank aas@citizensbank.net Subject;An Inquiry of the Alert Service Good afternoon, I am writing to request more information on your new Automated Alert Service,as advertised on your Website.I have had both personal and commercial accounts with Citizens'Bank for many years.Often,I find it necessary to move money between accounts.Because of this,it is vital that I keep a close eye on the cash flow of all of my accounts,to assure that their balances stay above the required minimums.Therefore,I have been searching for an economical means of keeping better track of my finances.I was considering purchasing software for this purpose,but I think that your new service might be a convenient alternative. My first question concerns the timeliness of the notifications.When you say"instantly,"does that relate only to banking hours?For example,if my wife were to use our debit card (借记卡)on a Sunday afternoon to make a transfer (转账)at an ATM,would I be informed via email instantly or on Monday morning?My second question is in regard to the information available in this service.Is it possible to be aware of any information in my monthly bank statement,such as interest on my savings account?Finally,I would like to know the cost of this service. Please send me this information as soon as possible.If necessary,you can contact me in the evenings at 225-782-0902. R.Renfield |
