Clothes can make phone calls, play music, dial your pal's number, keep you warm during cold weather and operate your computer.
This is not a fantasy. A British company, called electrotexiles, has created a wide range of clothes—clothes tha have minds of their own ! Scientists, working for the company, have invented a kind of fabric that can be mixed with flexible electronic materials to create intelligent clothing. The results are electronic garments.
If you think the weather has to be wired to different devices, think again. These designer clothes are wirefree, soft to touch and washable! Like any electronic device, these hightech clothes have to be powered. Currently, a tiny ninevolt battery serves the purpose. But the researchers hope that in the near future the clothes will generate electricity by using body heat. These clothes are 100% shockproof, they say.
The electrotexiles team has also created the world's first cloth keyboard. These keyboard can be sewn into your trousers or skirt. To use this device, you will have to sit down and tap on your lap! These “l(fā)aptap” devices are all set to take over laptop computers!
Another useful garment is the shirtcummobile phone. This handy invention enables drivers to chat comfortably with others at the wheel! Other popular electronic wears include the denim (牛仔布) jacket with flexible earphones sewn into the hoop and the electronic ski jacket with a builtin heater. The ski jacket is also programmed to send signals to a satellite. This technology is known as global positioning system and can be used to track lost skiers and wandering kids.
Having completed the cloth keyboard, scientists have already started to work on a new project—a necktie that can be used as a computer mouse. What is the next? Do you have any idea?

People often say that the Englishman’s home is his castle. They mean that the home is very important and personal to him. Most people in Britain live in houses rather than flats, and many people own their homes. This means that they can make them individual; they can paint them, and change them in any way they like. Most houses have a garden, even if it is a very small one, and the garden is usually loved. The house and the garden are the private space of the individual.
People usually like to mark their space. Are you sitting now in your home or on a train? Have you marked the space around yourself as yours ? If you are on the train you may put your coat or small bag on the seat beside you. If you share a flat you may have one corner or chair which is your own.
Once I was traveling on a train to London. I was in a section for four people and there was a table between us .The man on the space on my side of the table at all. I was angry. Maybe he thought that he owned the whole table .I had read a book about non-verbal communication, so I took various papers out of my bag and put them on his briefcase! When I did this he stiffened and his eyes nearly popped out of his head. I had invaded his space! A few minutes later I took my papers off his case in order to read them. He immediately moved his case to his side of the table. Of course, it is possible that he just wanted to be helpful to me!
If you are visiting another country you may feel that you don’t have any private space. Hotel rooms look much the same in every country in the world. All day long ,you share public spaces with other people. You see the local people in their private spaces and you feel lonely and “outside”. Local people can create their private spaces by talking about things you don’t know about .And you even feel that they like you to be outside them so that they will enjoy being inside even more! This is one of the difficulties of being a traveler !But if you understand it then it helps you .Haven’t you enjoyed being part of a group and “owning” a bit of space?

Rock music in one form or another is the most popular type of music all over the world. But where did it
come from?
Rock began in the USA in the early 1950s. At that time, rhythm and blue music was very popular with
black Americans. "R&B" was a mixture of black religious (宗教) music and jazz. It had strong rhythms (節(jié)奏)
that you could dance to and simple, fast words.
Noticing the success of R&B music, white musicians started to copy the same style. By the mid 1950s, this
new white R&B music, called rock 'n' roll, had become very popular. Singers like Elvis Presley and Bill Haley
attracted millions of teenage fans (愛好者). Their music was fast and loud. Many older people thought that
rock ' n' roll was very dangerous.
By the early 1960s, even rock ' n' roll had become old fashioned. Many of the songs had begun to sound
the same. It was at that time that a new group from England became popular-The Beatles.
The Beatles first started by singing American style songs, but they soon developed their own style, with
more complicated (復(fù)雜的 ) tunes (曲調(diào) ). They also introduced different instruments. Groups like The
Beatles had a very important influence on the style of popular music.
By the early 1970s,rock ' n' roll had developed into a new form of music. Electronics (電子) had replaced
the amplified (增大的) guitars and drums of rock 'n' roll."Rock" had arrived.
Rock music has continued to change and develop. It has combined with music from different parts of the
world. Today, there are hundreds of different types of rock music, and almost every country has its own form
of rock.
