turn out .sir john gurdon is a good example of this. as a boy, he was told he was hopeless at science and finished bottom of his class. now, aged 79, the very same gurdon shared the 2012 nobe prize in medicine with japanese stem cell(干细胞) researcher shinya yamanaka. like so many scientists, gurdon shows us where the power of curiosity and perseverance (坚持不懈)can lead. at the age of 15 in 1948, gurdon ranked last out of the 250 boys at his high school in biology and every other science subject. gurdons high school science teacher even said that his dream of becoming a scientist was“quite ridiculous”. in spite of his teacher s criticisms，gurdon followed his curiosity and kept working hard. he went to the lab early and left later than anyone else. he experienced thousands of failures. “my own belief is that we will, in the end, understand everything about how cells actually work,” gurdon said. in 1962, gurdon took a cell from an adult frog and moved its genetic(基因的）information into an egg cell. the egg cell then grew into a clone(克隆) of the adult frog. this technique later helped to create dolly the sheep in 1996, the first cloned mammal(哺乳动物）in the world. in 2006，gurdons work was developed by yamanaka to show that a sample(样本）of a persons skin can be used to create stem cells. using this technique, doctors can repair a patients heart after a heart attack. luck favors the prepared mind gurdon told the nobel prize organization. “ninety percent of the time things dont work，but when they do，you have to seize(抓住）the chance.”( )1. who won the 2012 nobel prize in

she had much housework to do. several weeks later she let the baby pigs come out of the pigsty (猪圈) and look for some food themselves. her seven-year-old son john came back from school. he was ready to help his mother. the woman was happy and told him to count them and see if they were all there. the boy threw his schoolbag on the table and ran out. about half an hour later the supper was ready, but the boy didnt come back. the woman had to go to see what was wrong with her son. and she saw her son running after a baby pig. “what are you running after it for?” she asked. “are they all

several ways you can find out about the countries and places you wish to visit. you can talk to friends who have traveled to the places, you can go and see a colour film about them, or you can read a travel book.it seems that there are three kinds of travel books. the first are those that give a personal, subjective(主观的) idea of travels which their writer has got himself. these books can be useful if the writers share their traveling experiences with others. the second kind are those books which give objective(客观的) information of things to be done and seen. if a cultured person has written such a book about the facts of a place, then it is more useful. the third kind are those books which are called “a guide” to some place or other. if they are good, they will describe and explain the place in detail. like the first kind , they can be interesting and exciting, but their main purpose is to help the reader plan his travel in the most practical way.whatever kind of travel book you choose, you must make sure that the book does not describe everything as interesting, exciting or fantastic. you must also keep an open eyes on its date of publication(出版) because travel is very practical matter and many things change quickly in the 21st century. finally, you should make sure that its easy to find the useful information for you travel.( )11. the passage was written to introduce_.a.
