琢磨

Hugh Brogan is not just a sure-footed guide to a brilliant, though elusive, theorist.

"Perhaps the reward will help," said Mr. Budd who was still thinking of the subject.

Economically, what could be better for a patent holder than to have a million people use the buddy system to teach themselves about the intricacies and virtues of your product (as pirated and distributed by others), and then wait in line to buy your stuff when they want the best?

而从经济上来讲，对于一个专利拥有者来说，还有什么比什么都不用做（因为盗版和传播都有别人代劳了）就有上百万的人正在用一个与你产品相似的产品自己琢磨里面的奥妙和长处，然后（等到他们不满足于用盗版而想要用同类产品中最好的产品的时候）排着队等着买你的东西呢？

I now began to consider, that I might yet get a great many Things out of the Ship, which would be useful to me, and particularly some of the Rigging, and Sails, and such other Things as might come to Land, and I resolv'd to make another Voyage on Board the Vessel, if possible; and as I knew that the first Storm that blew must necessarily break her all in Pieces, I resolv'd to set all other Things apart, 'till I got every Thing out of the Ship that I could get; then I call'd a Council, that is to say, in my Thoughts, whether I should take back the Raft, but this appear'd impracticable; so I resolv'd to go as before, when the Tide was down, and I did so, only that I stripp'd before I went from my Hut, having nothing on but a Chequer'd Shirt, and a Pair of Linnen Drawers, and a Pair of Pumps* on my Feet.

这时我想到，船上还有许多有用的东西，尤其是那些绳索，帆布以及许多其他东西都可以搬上岸来。我决定只要可能，就再上船去一次。我知道，要是再刮大风暴，船就会彻底毁了。因此，我决定别的事以后再说，先把船上能搬下来的东西通通搬下来。这么一想，我就琢磨再次上船的办法。看来，再把大木排撑回去是不可能了。所以，我只好等潮水退后，像上次那样泅水过去。决心一下，我就立即付诸实施。不过，在我走出木屋之前，先脱掉衣服，只穿一件衬衫、一条短裤和一双薄底鞋。

This time I had to pass Sato on my quick lap, and then I got held up by a Midland in the last chicane as he came into the pits.

Ah! don't mention it, the butcher's shop is a horror.
