Dr Wang: Yes, exactly. I admired them because I saw the greatness in them. You two must have role models too, right
Wang Le: Yes, that’s right. One of mine is Tu Youyou, whose research led to the discovery of artemisinin. I really admire people like her.
Anna Smith: My personal heroes are Alexander Fleming, who discovered penicillin, and Florence Nightingale, the founder of modern nursing. Countless lives were saved due to their amazing work.

Dr Wang: Those are certainly some great people. I admire them too.
Anna Smith: So, Dr Wang, what advice do you have for us, the younger generation

Anna Smith: Thanks, Dr Wang, that’s really good advice! Successful people always push themselves to do difficult things.
Dr Wang: That’s right, Anna. They challenge themselves to solve difficult problems. It helps them reach their goals and achieve great things.

I think Dr Zhong Nanshan is the greatest person in my heart. Because he managed the SARS outbreak. Although he never made millions of dollars, his contributions to health care have saved countless lives. To be great, a people should do good things and inspire a lot of people.
Wow! Dr Zhong Nanshan really does so much for us and deserves our respect.
