Mr. Marshall was an electrician with elegant manners. He mastered electrical engineering. Also he knew some elementary exercises for the piano. Mr. Marshall was efficient at his job. His labor efficiency was very high. So he was one of the elite in the electronics field. Either his boss or his colleagues agreed on this. Today his boss would come to check his work. The experiment building was at an elevation of 1.000 meters. The boss took the elevator to the eighteenth floor. Mr. Marshall had prepared an elaborate report on a new electronic device. He took his elbows off the desk and showed his boss the design. Then he elevated his voice slightly, "This kind of metal is a special element. If we electrify the electronic device, the electric current will cause the electrons to eject quickly...The new process can eliminate the need for checking the products by hand. And we don't need elastic rubber any more. "Mr. Marshall's eloquent words impressed his boss very much. He asked, " When can the new system become effective? Do it quickly, or else we will miss the Electronics Exposition next month. " "No problem." Mr. Marshall answered. Finally, his efforts were rewarded with success.

　　马歇尔先生是个有着优雅风度的电学家。他精通电学工程，还知道一些基本的钢琴练习。马歇尔先生工作很有能力。他的工作效率很高，所以他是电子学领域的一名出类拨萃的人物。不论是他的老板还是他的同事都同意这点。今天他的老板来视察他的工作。实验大楼坐落在海拔l000米的高度。老板乘电梯来到18层。马歇尔先生已经准备好了一份关于一个新的电子设备的详尽报告。他将胳膊肘从桌上移开，向老板展示设计。然后他略微提高了他的声音开始解释：“这种金属是一种特殊的元素。如果我们使这个电子设备通电，那么.电流会使电子快速喷射…这种新方法可以消除人工检测产品的程序，并且我们不再需要弹性的橡胶了。”马歇尔先生有说服力的话让老板印象非常深刻。他问道：“这个新系统什么时候生效? 要弄快点，否则我们就要错过下个月的电子设备展览会了。”马歇尔先生回答说：“没问题。”最终，他的努力得到了成功的回报。
