Activity 3
Read the text again and answer the questions.
1 Why is the discovery of artemisinin important
2 What was the key to getting a good extract from the wormwood
Because malaria is a kind of deadly disease, and artemisinin has become a vital part of the treatment for malaria, and is thought to save 100,000 lives a year in Africa alone.
The key to getting a good extract from the wormwood is using a lower temperature to draw out the extract.
3 What numbers are mentioned in the text What do they suggest
4 Why is Tu Youyou considered a great person
200 million: 600,000; 100,000
These numbers suggest that the malaria is a serious disease and artemisinin is very important for curing the disease,
1930; 1955; 1967; 1969; 1971
These numbers give a clear track of Tu youyou's life and research.
2,000; 280,000; 380; 190
These numbers suggest the difficulty of Tu Youyou's study.
Tu Youyou is considered a great scientist for two reasons. The first is that she has devoted herself to the study of the cure of malaria, and the second is that she has owed the success of artemisinin to the team not herself.
