Source text - English Oriental studies were no intellectual luxury; they were, he said.
a great Imperial obligation. In my view the creation of a school [of Oriental studies later to become the London University School of Oriental and African Studies] like this in London is part of the necessary furniture of Empire. Those of us who, in one way or another, have spent a number of years in the East, who regard that as the happiest portion of our lives, and who think that the work that we did there, be it great or small, was the highest responsibility that can be placed upon the shoulders of Englishmen, feel that there is a gap in our national equipment which ought emphatically to be filled, and that those in the City of London who, by financial support or by any other form of active and practical assistance, take their part in filling that gap, will be rendering a patriotic duty to the Empire and promoting the cause and goodwill among mankind,

Source text - English Boom times are back in Silicon Valley. Office parks along Highway 101 are once again adorned with the insignia of hopeful start-ups. Rents are soaring, as is the demand for fancy vacation homes in resort towns like Lake Tahoe, a sign of fortunes being amassed. The Bay Area was the birthplace of the semiconductor industry and the computer and internet companies that have grown up in its wake. Its wizards provided many of the marvels that make the world feel futuristic, from touch-screen phones to the instantaneous searching of great libraries to the power to pilot a drone thousands of miles away. The revival in its business activity since 2010 suggests progress is motoring on.
So it may come as a surprise that some in Silicon Valley think the place is stagnant, and that the rate of innovation has been slackening for decades. Peter Thiel, a founder of PayPal, and the first outside investor in Facebook, says that innovation in America is “somewhere between dire straits and dead”. Engineers in all sorts of areas share similar feelings of disappointment. And a small but growing group of economists reckon the economic impact of the innovations of today may pale in comparison with those of the past.
...
An innovation pessimist could dismiss this as “jam tomorrow”. But the idea that technology-led growth must either continue unabated or steadily decline, rather than ebbing and flowing, is at odds with history. Chad Syverson of the University of Chicago points out that productivity growth during the age of electrification was lumpy. Growth was slow during a period of important electrical innovations in the late 19th and early 20th centuries; then it surged.

Translation - Chinese 矽谷經濟復甦。高速道路 101 旁的辦公園區，再度配戴上代表奇蹟與希望的地產徽章。房租價格攀升，如同 Lake Tahoe 度假村的高級住宅，為財富累積的象徵。Bay Area 過去為半導體產業的孕育地，現在也充斥科技網路公司。當地設計師創造許多驚喜，打造未來世界的觀感，從觸碰式手機至立即搜尋知名圖書館，至具遙控位於幾千英哩外機體的能力。當地經濟活動的復甦顯示自 2010 年起便已驅動科技發展。
令人感到訝異的是，有些矽谷專家認為該地區經濟早已衰退或創新程度幾十年來處於落後的狀態。Pay Pal 創始者及 Facebook 第一位投資者 Peter Thiel 表示，美國的創新能力「介於停滯及死寂。」各領域的機械師，感受類似的失落。一規模小但成長中的經濟學家社群認為，今日創新相較於昨日，對經濟影響無顯著差異。
...
一創新悲觀主義者將此現象稱為「明日滯產。 」但此理論論述，科技導向成長必須持續增長或逐漸下滑，而非呈現產業的盛衰，卻與歷史發展牴觸。芝加哥大學 Chad Syverson 指出，電氣化年代的生產力成長顛簸動盪。19 世紀末及 20 世紀初的重要電氣創新階段成長呆滯，隨即便迅速發展。

Source text - English All financial data are extracted from the firms’ annual reports and the data regarding sponsorship awareness are collected using a questionnaire (Vrondou et al. 2014).
A tailor-made questionnaire reflected Aaker’s paradigm of three awareness stages with aided and non aided questioning.
‘Top of mind’ first questioning produced significant unaided awareness levels. The next two stages of aided questioning assisted recollection further, producing high levels of awareness amongst brands.
200 usable questionnaires were extracted and analysed.
The higher the ROS and ROA, the profitability and the ability of management to extract more profit from revenues and the utilisation of total assets (Dimitropoulos and Tsagkanos, 2012, 2014).
