take advantage of Apple Day to

see

what's around. It's called Apple Day but in practice it's more like Apple Month. The day itself is on

October 21, but since it has caught on, events now spread out over most of October

around

Britain.

Visiting an apple event is a good chance to see, and often taste, a wide variety of apples

To

people who are used to the limited choice of apples such as Golden Delicious and Royal ,Gala in

supermarkets, it can be quite an eye opener to see the range of classical apples still in existence, such

as Decio which was grown by the Romans. Although it doesn't taste of

anything special, it's still worth a try, as is the knobbly(

多疙瘩的

)Cat's Head which is

moreof a curiosity than anything else.

There are also varieties developed to suit specific local conditions. One of the very

bestvarieties

is

Orleans

Reinette,

but

need

a

sheltered

place withperfect soil to grow it, so it's a pipe dream for most apple lovers who fall for

it.

At the events, you can meet expert growers and discuss which ones will best suit

your conditions, and because these are family affairs,children are well catered for with

apple-Chemed fun and games.

Apple Days are being held at all sorts of places with an interest in fruit, including

stately

gardens

and

Bad new it bleeds

,it leads. No news is good news, and good news is

。

no

news.

Those are the classic rules for the evening broadcasts and the morning

now that information is being spread and monitored(

监控

)in different ways, researchers

are discovering new rules. By tracking people's e-mails and online posts,scientists have

found that good news can spread faster and farther than disasters and sob stories.

“The ‘if it bleeds' rule works for mass media,”says Jonah Berger, a scholar at the

University of Pennsylv

ania.“They want your eyeballs and don’t care how you’re

when you share a story with your friends, you care a lot more how they react. You

don' want

them to think of you as a Debbie Downer.

Researchers analyzing word-of-mouth communication-e-mails, Web posts and reviews,

face-to-face conversations-found that it tended to be more positive than negative(

消极的

)

，

but that

didn’t necessarily mean people preferred positive news. Was positive news shared more often simply

because people experienced more good drings than bad things? To test for that possibility, Dr. Berger

looked at how people spread a particular set of news stories: thousands of articles on The New York

Times' website. He and a Penn colleague analyzed the

his first findings was that articles in the science section were much more likely to make the list than

non-science articles. He found that science amazed Times' readers and made them want to share this

positive feeling with others.
