报载,台湾一家工厂生产的一种伞,用不到几回便折骨或断线,可谓“短命伞”。这种伞在大陆无人问津,在美国却十分畅销。原来,美国人外出虽然多半坐轿车,但因碍于车辆堵塞不便,也需要步行。美国无制伞工厂,也无修伞工匠,因此,美国人的雨伞一般使用二三次就扔掉了。 The newspaper contained an umbrella produced by a factory in Taiwan that used a short-lived umbrella to break bones or break wires in less than a few times. This kind of umbrella is unattractive on the mainland and is very popular in the United States. It turns out that although most Americans go out to the car, they also need to walk due to the inconvenience caused by the traffic jam. There are no Umbrella factories in the U.S. and no Umbrella craftsmen. Therefore, U.S. umbrellas are usually thrown away two or three times.
