　　As a specialist who specializes in the research of endangered species, Prof. Moore, announced that in the near future, specific types of insects could be cloned.He didn't specify what kinds of insects, but people speculated that he was talking about certain spiders.This was a spectacular achievement in the sphere of biology, and other scientists were eager to hear the specifics; the technical details specifically.But they had to wait for a long time. because this spectacular wouldn't be publicized until the scientist could produce a specimen. However, the process was spun out by an accident. One day, the scientist felt his head spin, and went into a spin when he tried to stand up. This spilled ink onto an original copy of a key document.The spill made it impossible to read the spelling, and the scientist was so angry that he almost had a heart attack.

　　作为专门研究濒危物种的导师，摩尔教授宣称在不久的将来，特定种类的昆虫将可能会被克隆出来。他没有明确说明是哪些昆虫，但人们推测他指的是某些蜘蛛。这是生物学领域引人注目的成就，其他科学家都很想听听详情，特别是技术上的细节，不过他们得等上一阵子，因为这个惊人之举一直要等到科学家制造出一个标本才会公之于众。然而，一次意外延长了这个过程所需要的时间。，这位科学家感到头有点晕眩，他想起身却旋转起来，结果把墨水洒到了一份重要的原始文件上，洒出来的墨水使上面的拼写变得无法辨认，因此科学家差点气出了心脏病。
