阅读下面的短文,将画线部分译成英文或中文。
The book that can't wait
1.One problem a lot of people have with books is that they buy them and then never read them.To work out this problem, a publisher(出版社) got a brilliant idea.It printed a book in disappearing ink(油墨):the text of the book disappears two months after the special package(盒) of the book is opened. 2.它鼓励那些购买者在书本内容消失之前看完这本书。People call this “the book that can't wait”.
The book was a great success.The publisher sold out all the first edition at a bookstore in one day, and received “thousands of requests(请求)” for more copies of the book.It also got a lot of media coverage(媒体报道). 3.As a result, the publisher is planning to publish other works in disappearing ink now.
In some ways, the idea is pretty clever.But here, we have some suggestions:
4.First, the book should start disappearing after the reader opens the book for the first time.If the books become very popular in the future, readers will need to read them one at a time.They don't want their books to disappear before they read the first page.
Second, the disappeared book should find a good use. 5.也许我们可以把它们当作笔记本来使用。It would be a more environmentally friendly way to do this.
