But recently, Huawei faced some difficulties. The U.S. government ordered a ban (禁令) on its sales in America. American officials said Huawei gave information that it collected to the Chinese government. At the same time, the U.S. government planned to stop selling parts and services to Huawei, which was believed that Huawei's business would be hurt.
"We have never received such a request (要求) from Chinese government and we have never tried to get into other system to collect information." RenZhengfei, Huawei's founder and president said. "The ban from the U.S. would have little effect on our company. Huawei has enough ability to deal with the problems." Ren added.

Sometimes, I doubt whether there is any love between my parents. Every day they are busy trying to make money. They don't act romantic ways couples do in books and on TV. They never say "I love you". It's not their style.
One day, my mother was sewing (缝) a quilt (被子). I sat down beside her. "Mom, I have a question to ask you," I said after a while.
"What?" she asked, still working.
"Is there love between you and Dad?" I asked her. She didn't answer right away. I thought I had hurt her. At last I heard my mother say, "Susan, look at this thread (线). Sometimes it appears, but most of it disappears in the quilt. It makes the quilt strong. If life was a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can hardly be seen anywhere, but it's really there."
I listened carefully but I didn't understand her until the next spring. My father suddenly got seriously sick. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month.
After they got back, she helped my father walk slowly down the country road every day. My father had never been so gentle.
"Dad, how are you feeling now?" I asked him one day.
"Susan, don't worry about me," he said, "I just like walking with your mom. I like this kind of life."
Once, I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. Now, I know that love is the thread that holds a family together.

Different weather makes people feel different. It influences health, intelligence and feelings. In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States. People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month.
In the Northwest and the Middle West, it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times. People in these states have some heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March. The weather can also influence intelligence. For example, in a 1983 report by scientists, IQ of a group of students was very high when a very strong wind came, but after the strong wind, their IQ was 10% lower. The wind can help people have more intelligence. Very hot weather, on the other hand, can make it lower. Students in many schools of the United States often get worse on exams in the hot months of the year (July and August).
Weather also has a strong influence on people's feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel unhappy during cold weather. But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer.
Low air pressure (气压) may make people forgetful. People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low pressure days. People feel best at the temperature of about 18 °C.
