Then she puts herself directly over her child. She waits for about a minute, and then she does the most unreasonable thing. She throws her long leg and kicks her baby, so that its sent sprawling (四脚朝天).When it doesnt get up, what the mother has done is repeated again and again. The struggle (挣扎) to rise is important. As the baby giraffe grows tired, the mother kicks it again. Finally, it stands for the first time. Then the mother giraffe kicks it off again. Why? She wants it to remember how it can get up. In the wild, a baby giraffe must be able to get up as quickly as possible to stay with its group, where theres safety.Another writer named Irving Stone understood this. He spent a lifetime studying great people, writing stories about such men as Michelangelo, Vincent van Gogh, Sigmund Freud, and Charles Darwin.Stone was once asked if he had found something unusual about these great people. He said, “I write about people who sometime in their life have a dream of something. Theyre beaten over the head, knocked down and for years they get nowhere. But every time they stand up again. And at the end of their lives theyve realized some small parts of what they set out (着手) to do.”31 .

However, aged 79, the very same Gurdon shared the 2012 Nobel 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 ridiculousIn spite of his teachers criticism（批评）, Gurdon followed his curiosity and kept working hard. He went to the lab earlier 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 the sheep Dolly 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.”35 .
