Investigation has shown that the failure of several of our scientific research projects was due not to deficiencies in our technology but to that 1 or even 0.5 per cent of substandard parts, parts which fell just a tiny bit short of the specifications.

• 我们有几次科学试验没有成功，经过检查，并不是技术没有过关，而是那百分之一甚至百分之零点五的零部件质量没有过关，就是那么一点点没有达到要求。
