However, as he will tell you, he had to travel down a long, hard road to get to where he is today.‎ ‎“I built this business up from nothing through my own hard work,” said Darno. “I come from a poor family and have thirteen brothers and sisters. My dad died when I was fourteen and I had to go out to work to try to support the rest of my family. To begin with, I sold ice cream in the street; then I got a job selling cloth door-to-door. After that, I started traveling all over the island selling things to people and slowly I started getting ideas about what kind of products the different markets wanted.‎ ‎“When I was twenty-one, I left my wife and two children at home and moved to Jakarta to set up my own business, selling all kinds of machines, particularly propellers (螺旋桨) for boats. There are over thirteen thousand islands in Indonesia, so there’s a huge market for that kind of thing. Business was increasing and I could finally afford to bring my family over to join me.‎ ‎“The only real problem I have now is who’s going to take control of the business when I retire. I’d like my son to run it, but he’s not really strong enough to do it! I think perhaps his childhood was too easy, and that has made him a bit too soft to do work like this!”‎ ‎5.

They also like to tell jokes each other and spend a fair amount of time playing one-up and boasting (吹牛). Men seldom call each other to chat.‎ ‎ Some men, either out of nervousness or ignorance(忽略), spend most of the time talking about themselves, often appearing to brag about their achievements or talk endlessly about their problems or work. Even the quietest man talks to his woman when love is new.‎ ‎ When women get together, they talk about feelings and relationships, their work and their family. They enjoy talking but also want the give and take of talk, then listen. Women often call each other to chat. Conversation is an important part of most women's 1ives.‎ ‎ As relationships progress, however, many a man turns on the television and forgets how to talk. This raises anger and cry from his woman partner who says, “You never talk to me anymore.” When the woman starts talking about her favorite subjects: feelings, family, relationships, friends and her work, many men lose interest or bring the conversation back to themselves.

If certain species should become extinct ,there would be enough of the basic building blocks to reintroduce the species in the future.‎ ‎ This week Chinese scientists said they grew an embryo by introducing cells from a dead female panda into the egg cells of a Japanese white rabbit. They are now trying to implant the embryo into a host animal.‎ ‎ 　The entire procedure of Chinese panda- cloning project could take from three to five years to complete. “The nuclear transfer(核移植) of one species to another is not easy and the lack of available panda eggs could be a major problem ” Kraemer believes. “They will probably have to do several hundred transfers to result in one pregnancy.
