The Tipping Point By Malcolm Gladwell
My sister is a marketing major,and she lent me this book. At first it seemed pretty technical — I know nothing about marketing — but I finally got the message. Gladwell explains that ideas spread through society much like viruses do. He also says that certain people are naturally effective communicators who help spread these ideas. And,if the situation is right for an idea to spread, sometimes a small change can then cause it to spread like wildfire. He illustrates(阐述) his point with convincing examples of successful ideas that have changed the world.

The Brookfield Zoo is located just 14 miles west of downtown Chicago. It's home to a variety of animal species,and its use of natural barriers and moats(壕沟) is so much more relaxing and enjoyable than watching a lion pace back and forth in a cage. The absence of bars also makes for great wildlife photo opportunities. The Brookfield Zoo also focuses on education,with detailed displays about the animals being viewed and the interactive program that lets kids get some hands-on experience to learn what it takes to run a zoo as well as face painting and crafts.
