Question

一篇阅读理解 请翻译

Some inventions are so useful, but seem so simple, that we wonder why no one thought of them long ago. Post-it Notes - the pieces of paper that you can fasten almost anywhere and then remove without leaving any sign that they were there - are an example of such an invention.

Post-it Notes were invented about twenty years ago by Art Fry, a scientist at 3M Corporation. The idea for the product came from a frustrating (令人沮丧的) experience he often had while singing in his church choir（唱诗班）. Fry used pieces of paper as bookmarks to mark the places in his book of songs, but these bookmarks were always falling out. He knew he needed a bookmark that would stay where he put it, but that he could remove without damaging the pages.

Around that time, Fry heard about a new adhesive (粘合剂) that a colleague (同事), Dr. Spence Silver, had created. This adhesive was special because it was sticky, but not too sticky. It was strong enough to hold papers together, but weak enough to not tear the paper when it was removed. Fry saw that the new adhesive could help solve his bookmark problem. One morning, Fry put some of the adhesive on the edge of a piece of paper. Just as he hoped, it made a perfect bookmark..

A short time later, Fry realized that his new invention had even more uses than being a great bookmark. He came to this realization when he wrote a note on one of his new "bookmarks" and attached (附着) it to a report he was going to give to a colleague. Soon, co-workers were asking Fry for more samples of his invention so that they could use the new type of notes themselves.

Fry and some other people at 3M believed so much in the new product that they persuaded the company to give away thousands of the "sticky pieces of paper" for trial use. When some salespeople at 3M went to offices and showed workers just how helpful the new type of notes could be, they immediately received many orders. As more and more people discovered how useful Post-it Notes could be, the product took off.

有些发明是如此有用,但是看起来那么简单,那我们不知道为什么没有一个人想到他们很久了。立可贴便条纸——的纸片,你可别,然后删除任何地方没有留下任何迹象表明他们在那里的一个例子——是这样一种发明。

立可贴便条纸大约二十年前发明艺术炒、3 M公司的科学家。的想法来自于一个令人沮丧的(产品)的经验令人沮丧的他经常在他的教堂唱诗班演唱时(唱诗班)。用纸片炒书签标记的地方在他的书里的歌曲,但这些书签总是脱落。他知道他需要一个书签会待在他把它,但他不损害可以删除网页。

在那个时期,炒新胶粘剂(听说了一个同事粘合剂)(同事),博士史宾塞银,创造了。这特殊的日子,因为这是胶粘剂粘,但不太糟。这是足以紧紧抓住论文在一起,但是没有一个品牌弱小到不能去撕那个论文的时候,它被移开。看见新的胶粘剂炒股可以帮助解决他的书签的问题。一天早晨,炒放一些胶粘剂的边缘上,一张纸。正如他所希望的,它使一个完美的书签。

短短一段时间后,炒意识到他的新发明甚至更多的用途比是一名伟大的书签。他来到这实现时,他写了一张便条上他的一个新的“书签”,见附件)它对附着有报道说他要给我的一个同事。不久,同事问煎更多的样品为他的发明,以便他们可以使用新型的音符本身。

炸,另一些人认为在3 M这么多的新产品,他们说服公司放弃成千上万的"黏黏的"纸"试片使用。当一些销售人员在3 M去办公室和显示是如何帮助工人的新型笔记可以,他们立即收到了很多订单。随着越来越多的人发现有用的立可贴便条纸,产品可以起飞。
