远远没有印度人多。
难道印度的Qualcomm员工比中国人多这么多吗?还是中国员工一般都自己带便当不太出

现在的问题是
1.钱已经付给他们了,他们说收的费用之后,不给我明细单。我要了很久才给我
2.我们没有签合同,这个是他们的纰漏。然后他们要求我必须写一个aggreement 表示
我已经同意终止服务,但是我一直没提供给他们。
3.事情已经过去1个多月了,他们什么都不给我,就好像没有这个事情似得
我现在有个律师朋友建议我去small claim court,因为这个律师没有跟我签合同,现
在给我的服务时间也是有问题的。因为我付费之前向他们请教的问题,他们居然也写到

有人去过small claim court吗?请教我这样的情况去可以吗?翻译我看网站上好像即

w******n 发帖数: 13172 | 27 不用搞那么复杂。running forehand主要的难点在于你在拼命向右跑(左撇子相反)时
,还要向左、向前蹬地转体发力。cross court就更要向左多转一些才行。正常的正手
发力有>50%的力量来自于转体和重心前移,只有很小部分才直接来自胳膊挥拍。
running forehand来自转体和重心前移的贡献就很小了。解决办法:
1. 最根本的是跑到位。如果能提前跑或跑快点,及早到位,就会有更多时间转体和上
重心,问题就解决了
2. 如果实在跑不到位,就基本没时间转体和上重心了。那就意味着要全靠挥臂来发力
了。这时要提前拉拍,增加拉拍幅度和following through的程度。即使这样也很难完
全弥补不能转体和上重心引起的力量丧失。这时,为了使球在力量不足的情况下也能打
的比较深,就只能把球打高点了(一般都打高上旋)。这就是为什么很多running
forehand都要向上挥拍,甚至打reverse forehand
3. 在2的情况下,要打cross court,就更要提前击球,这要求更早的拉拍,且拉拍更
向右,然后向左挥拍。球高没关系,反正这时一般都打上旋球,你会刷球就行。 |

w******n 发帖数: 13172 | 28 你说的部分对,对方是有可能打down the line winner to your back hand.但是这是
他能打出的远离你当前位置的最大角度了。现实是,往往他的直线打不了那么绝对的直
,而是或多或少有点斜,如果向你的back hand方向斜一点,就很可能出界了。所以一
般都是向场内斜一点,这就是我说的“对方回球的角度基本都是向着你来的”。相反,
如果你打直线到对方反手,对方可以有很大的安全范围打你的反手cross court而不用
担心出界。这个有一点counter-intuitive,不过你那纸画画就知道了。这是由对方回
球时他和你的相对位置决定的。我这个是从一个专门讲比赛strategy的文章里看来的,
不是我自己拍脑袋想出来的。这里讲的都是概率和原则。现实比赛中还要看对手和其他
具体情况判断。比如对手也知道这个原则,就很可能已经提前移动到网前等着你打
