The days of Europeans relaxing in the cafe with a newspaper and a seemingly endless cup of coffee appear to be numbered.A new English expression is popular in Europe these days:“coffee to go.” “Five or ten years ago it was much more normal to sit in a cafe for several hours than it is nowadays,”says Joann,who works in a central Berlin coffee bar owned by the Canadian coffee and bakery chain Tim’s. “There is a trend towards a more fast-paced life.But people still act surprised when you ask if the coffee is‘to go’.You mean I can take it with me? they ask..” “Europe is often five or eight years behind trends in America,”says Joann.“In the States.‘coffee to go’is part of everyday life.” Owing in part to Starbucks,it appears to be very much part of everyday life in many other countries too. The Seattle-based group compete with a growing number of global chains in attempting to reshape coffee drinking cultures in regions including Asia and the Middle East. The US is the model for continental Europe’s new“coffee to go”culture:Each of the new cafe bars offers bagels,muffins,brownies and cookies to go with the coffee. But then,“coffee to go’’might sound a little odd to English ears used to the words “takeaway”or take one. It does sum up the brisker pace of life since the city resumed its status as the German capital following the fall of the Berlin wall in 1989. As one more sign of the changing times,one of Berlin’s most venerable(古老而莊重的)coffee houses,cafe Einstein,has followed the trend by opening a small chain of coffee shops across the city. Taking coffee,slowly and in decorous(端正的)surroundings,has been a feature of European coffee houses,particularly in German speaking countries,for decades. For the elderly citzens of Vienna it amounts to a ritual(儀式)when they gather in coffee houses around the city for a cup of their favovrite drink and a piece of rich,creamy cake. 【小題1】From the passage,we can see that .

There is no doubt that Apple is well aware of the
increased competition in the market and could be in a hurry to put another
device out there, said Ramon Llamas, senior research analyst at IDC Mobile
Devices Technology and Trends. Given its history with product launches and
business policy, though, Apple probably isn’t going to rush an iPhone release
simply to put it on shelves, he said.
“If you’re Tim Cook (CEO of Apple), you’re thinking if
you want to pay more attention to how to keep growing that bottom line and keep
investors happy, or continue with the same approach from Apple, which is do
what we can do and manage products and releases in the best way they can work
for us. Apple usually does things in their own time ,and I’m having a hard time buying this May or June
timeline.” Llamas told Mac News World.
While it,s probable
that Apple is definitely in a testing stage for its next smartphone , consumers
likely have a standard wait for the finished product, said Colin Gibbs, analyst
at GigaOm Pro.
“It typically takes a year or longer to create a
state-of-the-art smartphone, so no one should be surprised Apple is in the
testing stages with the next iPhone. And while it’s possible that Apple could
launch the next iPhone this spring or summer, I’m not expecting to see it until
a little later in the year,” he told Mac News World.
When it does launch, though, it could be in a variety
of colors, said Gibbs. “Apple has already tested the waters with releasing
colored devices when it revamped(更新,翻新)its iPod
line last fall, so it’s not too much of a stretch to believe it would want the
new twist with its smartphone, as well”.
“I wouldn’t be surprised if the new iPhone becomes
available in some new colors,’’ he said. “That could
be done pretty cheaply ,and it would give Apple a new marketing
angle.”
