Thomas Withington, an air-defence specialist at RUSI, a think-tank based in London, says you can even hear the motor strain caused by heavy payloads.

伦敦智库皇家联合军种研究所 (RUSI) 的防空专家托马斯·威辛顿 (Thomas Withington) 表示，你甚至可以听到重型载荷引起的发动机噪音。

This did all that the Withington machine did and did it better and quicker; and it had the great advantage that it bound with twine instead of wire.

这可以完成 Withington 机器所做的一切， 而且做得更好更快； 它有一个很大的优势， 那就是它用麻线而不是金属丝捆扎。

By this time, scores of manufacturers had entered the field in opposition to McCormick, but his acquisition of Withington's invention had apparently made his position secure. Indeed, for the next ten years he had everything his own way.

此时，已有数十家制造商进入该领域反对 McCormick，但他收购 Withington 的发明显然使他的地位稳固。事实上，在接下来的十年里，他一切都按照自己的方式行事。
