Round Table 圆桌议事【文稿】英语词汇小百科第八期：wi-fiJohn Artman: Hello and welcome to this week’s Round Table’s Word of the Week. I’m John Artman.
Zhou Heyang: 我是赫扬。欢迎来到这周的英语词汇小百科板块。这周我们来聊一聊Wifi这个词。
John: The term “Wi-Fi” actually was commercially used at least as early as August, 2000 and was actually coined by brand consulting firm called Interbrand Corporation.
ZHY: 有人说Wi-Fi是Wireless Fidelity的简称。请问这是事实吗？
John: No, actually, it’s not true. Interbrand Corporation was hired by the Wi-Fi Alliance because they needed a name that sounded better than the “IEEE 802.11b direct sequence.” And so what they did was they made a play on words. They said was that “Wi-Fi” is the standard for wireless fidelity. The term right now, Wi-Fi, has nothing what...2014-04-1802 min
Round Table 圆桌议事【文稿】大学手机收纳袋John Artman: With mobile devices becoming so popular, people joke that the distance between life and death isn't as far as the distance between people while staring at their phones.
Increasingly, we see this happening even in college classrooms. To combat this rising tide of inattention, the Management Department of the Luoyang Institute of Engineering has taken matters into their own hands. Now, students must put their phones into storage bags before the class even starts.
So before we look at what the Luoyang Institute of Engineering has done, how serious is the staring at your...2014-04-1306 min
Round Table 圆桌议事【文稿】英语词汇小百科第七期：JaywalkingJohn: Welcome to this week’s edition of Round Table’s Word of the Week. I’m John Artman
ZHY: 大家好，我是赫扬，又到了一周一次的英语词汇小百科板块了。这个礼拜我们要聊一聊jaywalking, “jaywalking”中文应该叫“中国式过马路”，我觉得这个把意义传达的非常的直接。
John: Right, so Chinese crossing the street. In English, “jaywalking” is the illegal or reckless pedestrian crossing of a roadway. So, for example, people crossing between intersections without yielding to drivers or starting to cross at a crosswalk at a signal intersection without waiting for a permissive indication to be displayed.
ZHY: Well, that’s nicely put. 几乎每天都会发生，我们看到在路上不看红绿灯直接闯马路，而且还有一个很有中国特色的一点就是一大窝峰的人一起过马路。
John: And interestingly enough, the earliest use of the word “jaywalker” in print was in the Chicago Tribune in 1909 whereas the earliest citation was in the Oxford English Dictionary in 1917. And, so it was actually originally used as part of a deliberate effort by people trying to automobiles to redefine streets as places where pedestrians do not b...2014-04-1203 min

XH: During this week’s Round Table, we got to discuss a really popular South Korean TV drama, 来自星星的你. During the discussion, we got to talk about what exactly a soap opera is. ‘Cuz obviously John, you don’t think this show falls into the category of a soap opera. So, what exactly is a soap opera?
JA: Well, a soap opera is characterized by having a large, large cast of characters, and storylines that, basically, never end and just over-the-top acting and melodrama. I would say that来自星星的你 definitely does not actually fit that all. In fact, we have a clip of...2014-02-2102 min
