The legend of Lake Naroch

Many years ago there lived a girl called Nara. She could sing very well and play the psaltery .She loved a young man and wanted to marry him. One day she was sitting near a large beautiful lake when a rich man saw her. He liked Nara so much that he wanted to marry her. As Nara had a fiancé she didn't want to marry the rich man. But the rich man was very stubborn, and his servants killed Nara’s fiancé and took Nara to the rich man’s palace. The girl was so unhappy that when everybody was sleeping, she set fire to the palace, and ran away. When the rich man learnt about it, he sent his servants after Nara. As she couldn't run away from them, Nara dived into the lake and died. From that time the lake was named Lake Naroch.  

- We're live from this year's Innovation Show in Brazil and we're very lucky to have top American innovator and designer Ruth Martin, here with us today. Welcome to the show, Ruth.

- Thank you for having me.

- So, Ruth. Tell us, what is your favourite gadget in the show so far?

- Well, some of the smartphones are brilliant. But if I had to choose one gadget to take home, it would be the Q-watch. It's an amazing all-in-one watch, phone and camera that you can also use for surfing the internet and social networking. And it looks so good, too! It comes in purple, pink, grey, red, brown and black. You can choose cotton, metal, leather or plastic straps.

- So, you think wearable technology is here to stay?

- Yes. It's a great mix of technology and fashion, I think!
