John Duncan started work on Monday，and Mary Carter showed him round the factory．The most important thing that the company produced was a new paint for cars．It was a very strong，hard paint，which nothing could damage．Mary and her chemists had developed it，and they had tested it all over the world．Neither acid nor salt water could damage it，and cars came back from both the Arctic and the Sahara looking like new．
約翰·鄧肯星期一開始工作，瑪麗·卡特帶他參觀了工廠。公司最重要的產品是一種新的汽車油漆，它是一種附著力很強的堅固油漆，任何東西都不易損壞它?，旣惡退幕瘜W師們研制出它，并在全世界測試。它抗含酸或含鹽的水，上過這種油漆的汽車從北極和撒哈拉沙漠回來如同新車一樣。
The company was beginning to make a lot of money from this paint，and it had brought four hundred new jobs to the town．
公司開始從這種油漆上賺很多錢，同時也給小鎮帶來400個新的就業機會。
One day，when he was working with the paint，John spilt some of the waste products on his leg．He cleaned it off quickly，but it left a red，painful place on his skin，which would not go away．It kept him awake at night．He told his doctor what he had spilt on it，and the doctor looked at him strangely．
一天，當約翰正在使用油漆時，一些油漆廢料濺在他腿上。他很快把它擦拭掉，但漆料在他皮膚上留下了一塊紅色、發疼的地方，總不消退。這使他夜間睡不了覺。他告訴他的醫生他灑在腿上的是什么，醫生很奇怪地看著他。
'So these chemicals had something to do with the new paint，did they？'the doctor asked carefully．
醫生小心地問：“這么說，這些化學制品與新研制的油漆有關，對吧？”
'Yes，I told you．It was a bottle of the waste products．I was looking at them in my office．'
“是的，我說過，那是一瓶產品廢料。當時我在辦公室正觀察著它們?！?/div>
'I see．'the doctor looked out of the window thoughtfully．His fingers moved quietly on his desk．'And your company is producing a lot of these waste products now，I suppose．'
“我明白了?！贬t生望著窗外沉思著。他的手指輕輕地在桌上移動著。“我想，你們公司現在正在生產大量的這種廢料?！?/div>
'Yes，of course．'John was in a hurry． He had to meet someone important in ten minutes．'Look，can you give me something to put on it，or not?'
“是的，當然?！奔s翰有急事。他要在10分鐘后見一個重要人物。“我說，你能否給我一些涂抹的藥？”
