1.I was reading these interesting stories behind a group of great logos in the world.Personally Nike is my favorite one-it's so simple.And I liked the stories behind them,which made me forget all other things.McDonal's,Apple,Mercedes-Benz and Adidas own great logos as well,and they are among my favorites.
Nike
In the Greek myth,Nike is the goddess of victory and the source of inspiration for soldiers.This logo represents the wing in the famous statue of the Greek goddess.Nike's logo was designed by Carolyn Davidson in 1971 for $35,and was registered as a trademark in 1995.
McDonald's
The logo was designed in 1962 by Jim Schindler to resemble the archshaped(拱形的)sign on the side of the company's then walk-up hamburger stand.Later on,the two golden arches were combined together to form the M.The McDonald's name was added to the logo in 1968.
Apple
There are different stories behind Apple's logo.The first logo was a reference to the religious story of Adam and Eve,in which the apple represented the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge.One year later,the second logo was designed in 1977 by Steve Jobs and Ronald Wayne,and it described Sir Isaac Newton sitting under an apple tree.This logo didn't stay long.One year later it was replaced almost immediately by graphic designer Rob Janoff's "rainbow apple",a rainbow-colored silhouette(輪廓)of an apple with a bite taken out of it.And then the rainbow-colored apple was replaced by the one-colored logo in 1998.It has not been changed so far.
Mercedes Benz
The Mercedes-Benz logo,which was originally created by Gottlieb Daimler in 1909,consists of a simple description of a three-pointed star that represents its rule of the land,the sea and the air.The company was founded by Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach.Mercedes is the name of Maybach's elder daughter,while Benz came as a result of a combination with Benz,Cie and DMG in 1926.
Adidas
The Adidas logo,which was created by the founder of the company Adi Dassler,represents mountains,pointing towards the challenges that are seen ahead and goals that can be achieved.The logo was used for the first time in 1967.

2."ELSA,IT'S YOU!" It was the four-year-old's surprise birthday party,and her favorite Disney character,Elsa from Frozen,had arrived.The two joyfully began to sing the movie's big song, "Let It Go" and were soon joined by other fairy-tale princesses:Anna,Jasmine,and Snow White.You would swear you were celebrating at the most magical place on earth.
But this wasn't Disney World.It was the pediatric (兒科) cancer ward at a hospital on Long Island in New York.And the princesses were college students who volunteer for A Moment of Magic,a non-profit organization whose mission is to lift the spirits of sick children.
It all began once upon a time with a family movie night featuring Frozen.Kylee McGranc,now 23,noticed that she and Elsa had matching blond hair and big blue eyes.McGrane and her friend Maggie McAndrew,then both sophomores (大二學(xué)生) at the College of Mount Saint Vincent,were searching for a new community project,ideally one with kids.That sparked an idea - dressing up as Disney princesses and visiting pediatric cancer patients.
In 2015,after raising $2,000 on a GoFundMe page to pay for costumes and travel expenses,McGrane and McAndrew landed their first performance,at Cohen Children's Medical Center in New York.They dressed as Elsa and her sister,Anna,and spent nearly three hours singing songs,taking pictures,and traveling from one bedside to the next until they had visited every one of the 50 children.
Today,A Moment of Magic has 400 volunteers from 11 colleges around the country.They also have a growing kingdom of fans.Shara Moskowitz from New Jersey says her 7-year-old daughter,Avery,still talks almost every day by phone or text to the princesses she met nearly two years ago. "My daughter found something that she really needed to connect to." says Moskowitz,"These girls gave her that moment of imagination,freedom,and happiness of dreaming."

D.It is an environmental protection organization.
