peer agreement (net): +1人口普查统计 Explanation: 1890: 1890美国人口普查。1880年的普查人工用了7年的时间进行统计。这意味着1890年的统计将会超过10年。美国人口普查部门希望能得到一台机器帮助提高普查的效率。Herman Hollerith，建立制表机公司的那个人，后来他的公司发展成了IBM公司。借鉴了Babbage的发明，用穿孔卡片存储数据，并设计了机器。结果仅仅用了6个周就得出了准确的数据（62622250人）。Herman Hollerith大发其财。 1892: 圣多美和普林西比的William S. Burroughs (1857-1898),制作成功了一台比Felt的功能更强的机器，真正开创了办公自动化工业。 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2004-06-10 00:01:36 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- “previous 10-year preparation periods“意思是：如果不是1890年Herman Hollerith 的电动制表机被用于人口普查，那么，按照以前人工普查的进度， 普查工作的完成会花去10年时间。 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2004-06-10 00:06:44 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- 电动制表机的发明，意义深远。 Reference: http://www.xtit.net/com/com/1/1.htm |

完成普查报告 Explanation: BBW 和 OzeThai 的解说都没有错。 Preparation 应该理解为户口普查后到报告出炉间的后置工作，也就是普查结果的确定整理和报告制作。 因此，as against previous 10-year preparation periods 可以翻译为：较之于以往需要十年时间来完成普查报告的情形。 |
