19、l had been established.My topic is not standards nor its declineWhat the speaker was really saying is that he is no longer young；he has been teaching for sixteen years，and is able to think and speak like a mature adult.My point is that the frequent complaint of one generation about the one immediate

20、ly following it is inevitable.It is also human nature to look for the reasons for our dissatisfaction.Before English became a school subject in the late nineteenth century，it was difficult to find the target of the blame for language deficienciesBut since then，English teachers have been under consta

21、nt attack.The complainers think they have hit upon an original idea.As their own command of the language improves，they notice that young people do not have this same ability.Unaware that their own ability has developed through the years，they assume the new generation of young people must be hopeless

27、ting diode(二极管)The firm thinks that this system，once the battery is fully charged，is enough to light two small rooms and to power a mobilephone charger for seven hours.Then，next day，it can be put outside and charged back up again.The trick is that，to be able to use the electricity，the systems keeper

28、 must buy a scratch cardfor as little as a dollaron which is printed a reference number.The keeper sends this reference，plus the serial number of the household solar unit，by SMS to Eight19.The companys server will respond automatically with an access code to the unit.Users may consider that they are

29、 paying an hourly rate for their electricity.In fact，they are paying off the cost of the unit.After buying around 80 worth of scratch cardswhich Eight19 expects would take the average family around 18 monthsthe user will own it.He will then have the option of continuing to use it for nothing，or of t

But the 1980s brought new competitionfromJapanese film company Fuji Photo, which undermined Kodak by offering lower prices for film and photo supplies. Kodaks decision not
