The main point to remember is that the British often use understatement.Understatement means saying less than you think or feel. For example
17、, if someone gets very wet in a shower of rain, he might say, “Its a little damp (潮湿的) outside.” Or, if someone is very impolite and shouts at another person, someone else might say, “She isnt exactly friendly.” Understatement is often used in unpleasant situation or to make another person look sill
18、y. Understatement plays an important part in British humor.Another key to understanding British humor is that the British like to make fun of themselves as well as others. They often laugh about the silly and unpleasant things that happen to our everyday life when someone accidentally falls over in
19、the street. They also like to make jokes about people from different classes of society. They like to make jokes about their accents, the way they dress and the way they behave.

20、ies Mr. Bean is a good example of this kind of humor.Mr. Bean is the character created by British actor Rowan Atkinson in 1990.

21、hat adults in the real world cannot do. Mr. Bean is popular in many countries around the world because you do not have to speak English to understand the humor.

Thats no surprise , because they offer many benefits. If all students are dressed in the same way, they will not pay too much at
25、tention to their clothing, and some of them will not be laughed at for wearing the “wrong” clothes.Some people are against the strict rule of school uniforms, but they do not realize that students already accept a kind of rule - wanting to look just like their friends. The difference is that the clo
26、thing students choose for themselves creates social barriers(阻碍); school uniforms tear those barriers down.Some parents are unhappy about uniforms, saying that school uniforms will affect their childrens “creativity”. First, as noted above , the clothes students choose to wear do not necessarily exp
27、ress their individuality(个性). They just copy their classmates. Second, students have the rest of the day to be as creative as they like. While theyre in school, their job is to master reading, writing, and math; this should take up all the creativity they have. Mastery of those skills will be good f
28、or the students to build up their creativity in every way.As in other places, uniforms remind the wearers of their purpose and duties. For example, when a man or woman puts on a police uniform, he or she becomes, for a time, the symbol(象征) of law and order. The uniform means to the wearer his or her
29、 special duties and sends the same message to everyone the wearers meets. People with different jobs wear uniforms of one kind or another. For students, the school uniform reminds them that their task for the six or seven hours they are in school is to get an education.28. The benefits school unifor

Apple has cleverly
33、 taken advantage of the power of the letter “i” - and many other brands are following suit. The BBCs iPlayer - which allows Web users to watch TV programs on the Internet -used the title in 2008. A lovely bear - popular in the US and UK - that plays music and video is called “iTeddy”. A slimmed-down
34、 version(简装本) of Londons Independent newspaper was started last week under the name “i”.In general, single-letter prefixes(前缀) have been popular since the 1990s, when terms such as e-mail and e-commerce(电子商务) first came into use.Most “i” products are targeted at （针对）young people and considering the
35、major readers of Independents “i”, its no surprise that theyve selected this fashionable name.But its hard to see whats so special about the letter “i”. Why not use “a”, “b”, or “c” instead? According to Tony Thorne, head of the Language Center at Kings College, London, “i” works because its meaning
36、 has become ambiguous. When Apple uses “i”, no one knows whether it means Internet, information, individual or interactive, Thorne told BBC Magazines. “Even when Apple created the iPod, it seems it didnt have one clear definition（定义）,” he says.“However, thanks to Apple, the term is now connected wit
37、h 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”
38、 as one of the top 20 words that have come to define the last decade(十年).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 connected with all things advanced and modern. However, as we entered the new cent
