Twenty years ago, Motorola looked upon the Japanese with something close to fear. The Chicago company's television-manufacturing division had been large and profitable in the 1960s. By the early 1970s, however, high costs and a rising tide of inexpensive Japanese TVs were taking a heavy toll. "The Japanese were very aggressive", recalls Motorola spokesman Mario Salvadori. "They wanted to get market share." With cutthroat pricing, they did-eventually running nearly every U.S. electronic company out of the TV business. Motorola sold its Quasar TV unit to a Japanese company in 1974. But while other U.S. companies were floored for foreign competition, Motorola refocused its energies, It turned to wireless communications-an industry it had pioneered (with mobile radios and walkie-talkie) in the 1920s. It was a prescient move.

20年前，摩托罗拉公司带着近乎害怕的心理看待日本企业。早在(20世纪)60年代，这个公司芝加哥的电视制造分公司规模大、利润高。但在70年代初，高成本以及日本廉价电视机日趋上升的势头使其遭受重创。"日本人非常嚣张，"摩托罗拉公司发言人马里奥·萨尔瓦多瑞追忆道,"他们想分享市场。"通过残酷无情的价格战，他们如愿以偿，并最终把几乎所有美国电子公司赶出电视机行业。1974年，摩托罗拉将其Quasar 电视生产厂卖给了一家日本公司。但是，当其他美国公司在对外竞争中败北的时候，摩托罗拉公司重新调整了产业方向，转向无线通讯。这是一个它在20年代开拓的产业(另外还有移动收音机和步话机)。此举确有先见之明。

据调查，我国有40%的青少年除了课本外不看其他书籍。对此，我感到极为震惊。虽然有关人士声称调查具有科学性，我仍不敢相信。不过尽管怀疑，事实却是，越来越多的年轻人在业余时间已不再读书，而是看电视、跳舞、打电子游戏机，或者"侃大山"。高尔基说过："书籍是人类进步的阶梯。"众所周知，书籍是人类智慧的结晶。尽管现代传媒(如电视、计算机)在信息的传播速度上有许多优势，但到目前为止，还没有哪一种在传播知识的深度方面能取代书籍。

According to a survey, about 40% of our country's youth do not read any books other than their textbooks. I am shocked at the result. I remain suspicious of the survey, though the people concerned claim it to be scientific. Despite my suspicion, the fact is that more and more young people, instead of reading, spend their spare time watching TV, going to dance parties, playing video games or chitchatting. Gorgy once said:"Books are steps toward human progress."As we all know, books is a crystallization of human wisdom. Although modern media such as TV and computers enjoy advantages in the speed of information dissemination, so far none of them can replace books in respect of the depth of knowledge being spread.
