Owing to the work that has gone into developing intelligent materials, this may not be as _41_ as it sounds. Self-cleaning clothes have now been created, and these new materials provid

23、e _42_ resistance to dirt as well as water. As a result, they require much less cleaning than traditional materials.The creation of self-cleaning clothes provides an example of how nature helps scientists develop better products.

24、es , of course, from the lotus leaves, which are famous for growing in muddy lakes and rivers while remaining almost _43_ clean.

25、45_. Among them are special windows that are resistant to dirt and water.

28、at success is all about attracting and retaining(留住) customers. It sounds simple and achievable. But, _50_, words of wisdom are soon forgotten. Once companies have attracted customers they often _51_ the second half of the story. In the excitement of beating off the competition, negotiating prices,

29、securing orders, and delivering the product, managers tend to become carried away. They forget what they regard as the boring side of business -_52_ that the customer remains a customer._53_ to concentrate on retaining as well as attracting customers costs business huge amounts of money annually. It

30、 has been estimated that the average company loses between 10 and 30 per cent of its customers every years. In constantly changing _54_ , this is not surprising. What is surprising is the fact that few companies have any idea how many customers they have lost.Only now are organizations beginning to

31、wake up to those lost opportunities and calculate the _55_ implications. Cutting down the number of customers a company loses can make a big _56_ in its performance.

34、ol of Management. “Research suggests that there is a close relationship between retaining customers and making profits. _62_ customers tend to buy more, are predictable and usually cost less to service than new customers.

43、o cover teenage social activities-and it did-but it also gave me the freedom to write on many other subjects as well as the habit of gathering material, the discipline of meeting deadlines, and, after graduation from college six years later, a solid collection of published material that carried my n
