One advantage of the Internet is shopping conveniently online for clothes; one disadvantage of the Internet is also shopping conveniently online for clothes.

“Nothing fits,” said Lam Yuk Wong, a senior in electrical and computer engineering at Rice University. “Everyone says this. They order clothes and they don’t fit. People get very unhappy.”

Wong and her design partner, Xuaner “Cecilia” Zhang, are Team White Mirror, creators of what they call a “virtual (虚拟)fitting room”. Their goal is simple and consumer-friendly: to let online clothing shoppers have a perfect fit and a perfect look when shopping every time. Both women are from China, Wong from Hong Ko ng and Zhang from Beijing. They both order most of their clothing online. They got the idea from their own experience as consumers and from listening to the complaints of friends and relatives. “They say, ‘The color is wrong’ or ‘I got the right size but it still does not fit.’ We want to make it like you’re in the store trying on the clothes,” Zhang said.

Using a Kinect developed by Microsoft for use with its Xbox 360 video game player, Zhang scans Wong and turns her image into, in effect, a virtual model, keeping Wong’s dimensions (尺寸), and even her skin and hair color. “We put the clothes on the shopper’s 3-D body models and show how they look when they are dressed,” Wong said. So far, Wong and Zhang have adapted the software to show dresses and shirts, and they are now working on shorts.

Asked if she thought men as well as women might be interested in using their virtual fitting room, Wong said, “I think their wives will care about this, so it will also be important to men.”

How do you improve your spelling?1.Just as we learn spoken language by hearing lots of people speaking, we learn written language, including spelling, by reading what a lot of people write. Spelling is not about how a word sound, it’s about how it looks on the page, which means you have to look at a lot of words on the page to learn the correct spelling about it.

Make a list of your commonly misspelled words.2.When you get a chance, look it up and put the correct spelling next to it.

Humans have daydreamed for thousands of years, and yet, these days, spare moments are filled with using our smartphones and other devices—going through social media, listening to podcasts, responding to emails—leaving us little time to let our minds wander.

1. When you’re in a daydreaming state of mind, you can imagine or pretend your own version of events.

“My most creative moments come when my brain is allowed to rest” says Megan King, a designer. But she is addicted to her smart phone. 2. According to Nielsen, Americans spend 10.5 hours a day consuming media. And UK residents are close behind at almost 10 hours a day, according to eMarketer.

3. This may seem a small change, but its effect, on the way our minds work and on our collective creativity could be serious. 4.

Over years of studies, researchers have found that our brain has two separate attention systems — an external one and an internal one. The internal attention system, which is activated(激活）during daydreaming, is called the default network(默认网络).

The default network is particularly active when we are thinking about ourselves, thinking about the past, thinking about the future. 5.

If both systems can’t be active at the same time and we’re spending 10 hours a day in one attention system, it begs the question: what is that doing to our brains — and our ability to come up with creative ideas?

A. Daydreaming is the opposite of our dreams.

B. This extended screen time has made some of us uncomfortable sitting alone with our own thoughts.

C. Daydreaming is how we access our big-picture state of mind.

D. In fact, it could be preventing your ability to come up with fresh, creative ideas.

E. We can’t really have both attention systems active at the same time.

F. People spend too much time on screen suffer from headaches.

G. She's not alone.
