Happy Accidents 教学案例 案例主题 本单元通过一系列短文给学生们介绍了的许多意外发明的来源。让学生们对意外发明有了一定的认识，本案例着重介绍意外发明通常来源于什么。可作为学生们课外阅读锻炼。 案例背景 很多意外来自于人无意识行为，但不是所有人都能将意外变成美丽的意外，从意外中学到经验与知识。这就需要有主动学习的意识，善于学习的技能。通过一系列的案例，给学生们提供反思的空间，学习除阅读技巧意外的生活知识。 案例： Happy Accidents with Triggers 与触发器有关的意外发明 You never know what you might discover when you thought you were looking for something else. 当你认为自己在寻找别的东西时，你永远不知道你会发现什么。 One of our more loyal Presentation Summit attendees, Mary Hampton, had a recent dilemma and she came to us in search of a solution. On a map of the United States, she prepared information boxes for states that were relevant to a particular topic. She wanted to be able to control when those info boxes appeared, instead of being committed to them appearing according to a conventional animation sequence. In other words, she might want to show Delaware right away, Alabama 10 minutes later, and then Georgia near the end. Or perhaps she will need to show Georgia first, Delaware shortly afterward, and not show Alabama at all. 我们的一位更忠诚的演讲峰会与会者Mary Hampton最近陷入困境，她来到我们这里寻求解决方案。在美国地图上，她为与某一主题相关的国家准备了信息框。她希望能够控制这些信息框出现的时间，而不是按照常规的动画序列来提交它们。换句话说，她可能想马上展示特拉华，阿拉巴马州10分钟后，然后格鲁吉亚接近尾声。或者，她可能需要先展示格鲁吉亚，不久之后就要展示特拉华，而根本不展示亚拉巴马州。 Experienced PowerPoint users know which tool addresses this type of functionality: these are a job for triggers. You use a trigger when you want an animation to appear, not when you click the Next button on your remote (or the spacebar on your keyboard), but instead when you click a particular object on the slide. In other words, you designate the object’s animation to be triggered by the clicking of another object. 有经验的PowerPoint用户知道哪种工具解决了这类功能：这些都是触发器的工作。当您希望动画出现时，您可以使用触发器，而不是当您单击遥控器上的Next按钮(或键盘上的空格键)时，而是在单击幻灯片上的特定对象时使用触发器。换句话说，您可以将对象的动画指定为通过单击另一个对象来触发。 This is not that hard to do, but this particular project would prove too much for basic triggering and that’s why Mary’s story is worth telling. 这并不难做，但这个特定的项目将证明太多的基本触发，这就是为什么玛丽的故事是值得讲述的。 Figure one below is a deceptively simple illustra
