follow.
1. Those cuddly stuffed animals called teddy bears seem to have been around forever. But
actually the first teddy bears came into being when President Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt showed
himself too much of a sportsman to shoot a staked bear cub. In 1902, Roosevelt visited
Mississippi to settle a border dispute. In Roosevelt’s honor, his hosts organized a hunting
expedition. To make sure that the president would bag a trophy, they staked a bear cub to the
ground so that Roosevelt’s shot couldn’t miss. To his credit, Roosevelt refused to shoot the bear.
When the incident was publicized, largely through political cartoons, a Russian candy store
owner named Morris Michtom made a toy out of soft, fuzzy cloth and placed it in his shop window
with a sign reading “Teddy’s Bear”. The bear was a hit with passersby, and teddy-bear mania
spread rapidly throughout the country. Soon, Teddy’s bear was the country’s most popular toy,
the teddy bear.
1.President Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt shoot a staked bear cub.

1.1 In 1902, Roosevelt went to Mississippi and was the guest of honor to a hunting

expedition.

1.2. They staked a bear cub to the ground to make sure that president wouldn’t miss the

shot and bag a trophy home.

1.3 President Roosevelt refused to shoot the bear.

1.4 After the story got publicity via political cartoons, candy store owner created Teddy’s

bear.

1.5 The bear was a hit and everyone wanted one.

2. Many people don’t know the difference between a patent and a trademark. However the
terms trademark and patent aren’t synonyms, they refer to different things. Granted for a specific
number of years, a patent protects both the name of a product and its method of manufacture.
In 1928, for example, Jacob Schick invented and then patented the electric razor in an effort to
maintain complete control of his creation. Similarly, between 1895 and 1912, no one but the
Shredded Wheat company was allowed to make shredded wheat because the company had the
patent.
A trademark is a name, symbol or other device that identifies a product and makes it memorable
in the minds of consumers. Kleenex, JELL-O, and Xerox are all examples of trademarks. Aware
of the power that trademarks possess, companies fight to protect them. They do not allow anyone
else to use one without permission. Occasionally, though, a company gets careless and loses
control of a trademark. Aspirin, for example, is no longer considered a trademark, and any
company can call a pain-reducing tablet an aspirin.
1.Many individuals didn’t know the dissimilarity between a patent and a trademark.

1.1 Patents are granted for a specific number of years and protect both name and method of
manufacture.
1.1.1 in 1928 Jacob Schick patented his invention “electric razor” to maintain control into

his creation.

1.1.2 Between 1895 and 1912, Shredded Wheat Company had patent on shredded
wheat.
2. Trademark makes a product memorable in the minds of consumer through name, symbol or
other device that can easily identify the product.
2.1 Examples of trademarks are Kleex, JELL-O and Xerox.

2.2 Companies generally fight to protect trademarks but they can get careless.

Ketchup

(1) The sauce that is today called ketchup (or catsup) in Western cultures is a tomato-based
sauce that is quite distinct from the Eastern ancestors of this product. A sauce called ke-tiap
was in use in China at least as early as the seventeenth century, but the Chinese version of the
sauce was made of pickled fish, shellfish, and spices. The popularity of this Chinese sauce spread
to Singapore and Malaysia, where it was called kechap. The Indonesian sauce ketjab derives its
name from the same source as the Malaysian sauce but is made from very different ingredients.
The Indonesian ketjab is made of cooking black soy beans, fermenting them, placing them in a
salt brine for at least a week, cooking the resulting solution further, and sweetening it heavily;
this process results in a dark, thick, and sweet variation of soy sauce.

(2) Early in the eighteenth century, sailors from the British navy came across this exotic sauce
on voyages to Malaysia and Singapore and brought samples of it back to England on return
voyages, English chefs tried to recreate the sauce but were unable to do so exactly because key
ingredients were unknown or unavailable in England; chefs ended up substituting ingredients
such as mushrooms and walnuts in an attempt to recreate the special tastes of the original Asian
sauce. Variations of this sauce became quite the rage in eighteenth-century England, appearing
in a number of recipe books and featured as an exotic addition to menus from the period.

(3) The English version did not contain tomatoes, and it was not until the end of the eighteenth
century that tomatoes became a main ingredient, in the ketchup of the newly created United
States. It is quite notable that tomatoes were added to the sauce in that tomatoes had previously
been considered quite dangerous to health. The tomato had been cultivated by the Aztecs, who
had called it tomatl; however, early botanists had recognized that the tomato was a member of
the Solanacaea family, which does include a number of poisonous plants. The leaves of the
tomato plant are poisonous, though of course the fruit is not.

(4) Thomas Jefferson, who cultivated the tomato in his gardens at Monticello and served dishes
containing tomatoes at lavish feasts, often receives credit for changing the reputation of the
tomato. Soon after Jefferson had introduced the tomato to American society, recipes combining
the newly fashionable tomato with the equally fashionable and exotic sauce known as ketchap
began to appear. By the middle of the nineteenth century, both the tomato and tomato ketchup
were staples of the American kitchen.

(5) Tomato ketchup, popular though it was, was quite time-consuming to prepare. In
1876, the first mass-produced tomato ketchup, a product of German-American Henry Heinz,
went on sale and achieved immediate success. From tomato ketchup, Heinz branched out into
a number of other products, including various sauces, pickles, and relishes. By 1890, his
company had expanded to include sixty-five different products but was in need of a marketing
slogan. Heinz settled on the slogan “57 Varieties” because he liked the way that the digits 5
and 7 looked in print, in spite of the fact that this slogan understated the number of products
that he had at the time.

3 Learning Styles

In order to do well on an exam, you spend hours, days or even months studying. This
preparation can be more effective if you know your personal learning style. Your learning style
is simply the way you learn best. It is as unique as you are. Understanding your learning style
can help you remember information more easily, solve problems more effectively, and understand
concepts more naturally.
 According to scientists, the only way to bring information into your brain is through your
senses. When you encounter new information, you may see it, hear it, touch it, taste it, or smell
it. These are the main intake styles in human experience.
As a result, there are several learning style modalities, which focus on three main
categories: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic. Visual refers to learning by seeing and
watching; auditory refers to learning by hearing; kinesthetic refers to learning by doing, touching,
and interacting.
Visual learners need to see something in order to learn best. if you fall into this category,
you will benefit from the following activities: copying from the board, writing and rewriting notes,
highlighting key information in the textbook, making mind maps, using flashcards, and watching
videos. You can also learn easily from graphics, posters, charts, maps, and photographs.
Auditory learners need to hear something in order to learn well. If you fall into this group,
doing the following will help you learn more easily: pay attention in class, make recordings of
learning material, repeat facts with your eyes closed, ask questions, explain the subject matter
to another student, record lectures, participate in group discussions, and study in a quiet
environment. Auditory learners like to listen to audio books, lectures, debates, and music.
Kinesthetic learners need to touch or experience something in order to remember it. If
you fall into this classification, you may have faced greater challenges in the academic
environment. Most formal learning is not set up to include physical movement and activities.
Nevertheless, if this is your strength, you could benefit from the following activities: making
models, visiting museums, giving a demonstration, participating in a simulation, and studying
on the floor, bed or any place that feels comfortable. You can also relate to physical activities,
direct involvement, hands-on activities, displays, demonstrations, and experiments.
Knowing your dominant learning style will enable you to improve your academic
performance in many ways. You can learn faster and more effectively by applying the techniques
suited to your learning style. You can create activities at home to help you remember more, no
matter how good or bad your teacher is, and no matter how well or poorly the information was
transmitted to you in class. By taking control of your learning, you also take responsibility for
the results you achieve. You stop blaming other people or situations and start doing what you
need to do in order to get the highest score possible on your quizzes, tests, and exams.
