While he was off on his l978 tour，Americans were becoming disgusted with their lot as all“emerging second—class nation”，Wilson says．They began to see that incentives had to be restored to the economy．For instance，the capital gains tax was cut，an extraordinary turn—about．If it had been predicted before he went away in May，he would have said it was simply inconceivable as inconceivable as the prospect of Resorts going up1，000 percent．
This momentous transformation in the U．S．should soon bring about a huge bull market． In the l940s and l950s，the last time price earning multiples were at these low levels，the investing public expected that there would be another great postwar depression．Instead，aRer the beginning of l953 it became apparent that there would not be one，and price-earnings multiples got so low this time that investors felt that the country was drifting into socialism．That drift，however，may be reversing direction．
Wilson believes that the bankruptcy of New York City means the discrediting of big government，that as a result there will be less government，and that things in general will go much better．From l980’s depressed levels the market could rise to twenty times doubled earnings or almost fivefold in five to seven years．Wilson believes that he’ll be worth hundreds of millions of dollars before it’s over．

听力原文： People in most countries depend on communications technology more than ever before. One day in May, an accident forced millions of Americans to be silent. They had to live and work without the technology they depend on every day.
A telecommunication satellite experienced computer failure. The satellite, known as Galaxy Four, moved from its correct orbit and was unable to receive signals from Earth. A backup computer failed to turn on, and the satellite began to spin out of control.
Galaxy Four was launched in 1993. It cost two hundred fifty million dollars. Galaxy Four provided the major link for millions of pagers, credit card operations, company communications systems, and home satellite equipment. The satellite also was used to send television and radio broadcasts.
The telecommunication satellite failure created big problems for many companies. At least eight of the nation's ten biggest paging companies depend on Galaxy Four. A pager is an electronic device that receives telephone messages. The pager makes a beeping sound when it receives one. Ninety percent of the nation's forty-five million pagers lost service when Galaxy Four failed. Paging companies were unable to provide services to police department, doctors and other individuals.
The satellite failure affected many television and radio broadcasts. Thousands of computer users were unable to use the Internet.
A nearby satellite called Galaxy Six has replaced the Galaxy Four satellite. Signals for broadcasting companies are being sent through Galaxy Six. Another satellite, Galaxy Three-R, is replacing Galaxy Four for paging and other signals. Technical experts had to move each person's satellite equipment to point to Galaxy Three-R. Each move takes about thirty minutes. Technicians say the moves must be exact to within less than a centimeter. They were able to restore service to most customers within a few days.
