Lesson 15-2  Secrecy in industry

Yet a great manyprocesses depending on such research are sought for with complete secrecy untilthe stage at which patents can be taken out. Even more processes are neverpatented at all but kept as secret processes. This applies particularly tochemical industries, where chance discoveries play a much larger part than theydo in physical and mechanical industries. Sometimes the secrecy goes to such anextent that the whole nature of the research cannot be mentioned. Many firms,for instance, have great difficulty in obtaining technical or scientific booksfrom libraries because they are unwilling to have their names entered as havingtaken out such and such a book, for fear the agents of other firms should beable to trace the kind of research they are likely to be undertaking.

练习感悟： 今天的这篇文章，虽然生词不多，但是语速很快，我在跟读的时候，都经常跟不上，但是录音却一遍就达标了，应该是因为原录音前面比较慢，后面加快了语速，但是我都用一种比较快速的语速去读，所以一遍就达标了
