Chinese Culture Fueling International Fashion TrendsCBefore the 1830s,most newspapers were sold through annual subscriptions in America, usually $8
15、 to $10 a year. Today $8 or $10 seems a small amount of money, but at that time these amounts were forbidding to most citizens. Accordingly, newspapers were read almost only by rich people in politics or the trades. In addition, most newspapers had little in them that would appeal to a mass audience
16、. They were dull and visually forbidding. But the revolution that was taking place in the 1830s would change all that.The trend, then, was toward the "penny paper" a term referring to papers made widelyavailable to the public. It meant any inexpensive newspaper; perhaps more importantly it
17、 meant newspapers that could be bought in single copies on the street.This development did not take place overnight. It had been possible(but not easy)to buy single copies of newspapers before 1830,but this usually meant the reader had to go down to the printer's office to purchase a copy. Stree
18、t sales were almost unknown. However, within a few years, street sales of newspapers would be commonplace in eastern cities. At first the price of single copies was seldom a penny usually two or three cents was charged and some of the older well-knownpapers charged five or six cents. But the phrase
19、"penny paper " caught the public's fancy, and soon there would be papers that did indeed sell for only a penny.This new trend of newspapers for "the man on the street" did not begin well. Someof the early ventures( 企業(yè) )were immediate failures. Publishers already in business,
20、people who were owners of successful papers, had little desire to change the tradition.

24、he monkeys were provided with touch screens. On one part of thescreen, a symbol would appear, and on the other side two symbols inside a circle were shown. Forexample, the number 7 would flash on one side of the screen and the other end would have 9 and 8. If the monkeys touched the left side of the
25、 screen they would be rewarded with seven dropsof water or juice; if they went for the circle, they would be rewarded with the sum of the numbers 17 in this example.After running hundreds of tests, the researchers noted that the monkeys would go for the higher values more than half the time, indicat
26、ing that they were performing a calculation, not just memorizing the value of each combination.Whenthe team examined the results of the experiment more closely, they noticed that the monkeys tended to underestimate (低估)a sum compared with a single symbol when the two were close invalue sometimes cho
27、osing, for example, a 13 over the sum of 8 and 6. The underestimation was systematic: When adding two numbers, the monkeys always paid attention to the larger of the two,and then added only a fraction(小部分) of the smaller number to it."This indicates that there is a certain way quantity is repre
