英语翻译
few years ago,Masaru Ibuka,the head of Sony,was at a company planning meeting.Suddenly,he had an idea.He stopped the meeting and asked everyone what would happen if Sony took away the recording function (功能) and speakers and sold headphones with a tape player instead.Almost everyone thought he was silly.Still,Ibuka kept his idea and worked at it.The result,of course,turned out to be the successful Sony Walkman.
Good ideas often start with a really silly question.Bill Bowerman was making breakfast one day.As he stood there making cakes for his son,he asked himself what would happen if he poured rubber into his mold (模具).Later,he tried it and the result was something like the bottom of most sport shoes we see today.Still,when the took this idea to several shoe companies,he was laughed at.In fact,every single company turned his down.Though rather disappointed,Bowerman went on to form his own company,making NIKE sports shoes.
We know today,of course,that each of these ideas caused a successful thing that has changed the way many of us live.The best questions are usually open-ended and are often “silly”.Children aren’t afraid to ask such questions,but adults (成年人) usually are.Think how different the world might be if people never asked “silly” questions!

几年前,索尼总裁井深大在一次公司计划会上,他突然有了一个想法,他打断了会议,并征询每个人的意见：如果索尼产品将录音功能、播放器、固定式耳麦集成到一个磁带录音机中如何?几乎所有的人都觉得他的想法很可笑.然而,井深大坚持他的想法并付诸实施.结果,最终索尼随身听成功问世.
好的想法总是由可笑的提问开始的,有一天,比尔．鲍尔曼在做早餐,当他为儿子做蛋糕的时候,他问自己如果将橡胶放入做蛋糕的模具中会怎样.最后,他尝试着做了,并得到了一个类似于我们今天看到的许多运动鞋胶底的东西.然而,当他将这一想法告诉几家运动鞋公司时,别人都嘲笑他.每一家公司都拒绝了他.尽管很失望,但鲍尔曼继续坚持并成立了自己的公司,取名耐克运动鞋.
当然,今天我们知道,这些想法都取得了成功并改变了我们的生活.最好的想法通常是异想天开的,而且愚蠢.孩子们不怕问这类问题,但成年人都会有所顾忌.试想一下如果人们不问这些愚蠢的问题又如何来改变世界呢!
