When he left university, he started a factory with his brother to make a new and very powerful explosive�� At first the factory 13 , but one day there was a terrible explosion (卯姆) in the factory�� It killed several workmen and Alfred's brother�� Alfred himself was not there that day��
Alfred 14 after his brother's death, but he did not stop working; he moved his factory onto a boat, and took it a few miles out to sea�� ^If 15 , ̄ he said to himself, ^I will be killed, but 16 will be hurt��  ̄ He was not killed 17 , but made a new and much safer explosive�� He called it dynamite (己嗟姆勞)��

One day, in 1891, Nobel opened a newspaper and read the story of his own death! It was 21 , of course, and at first he laughed; but he did not laugh then he saw the things the newspaper 22 him, ^A very bad man,  ̄ they said, ^´terrible´wanted to destroy the world with his dynamite´ ̄
