1f
Discuss the questions.
The more people took part in seed collection and research, the better the important scientific work would be.
His hard-working, devoted, brave, persistent and selfless spirit and his great contributions to science made him admirable.
We can learn his spirit of devoting himself to science, being brave to face difficulties, working hard and passing on knowledge and spirit. We should love our jobs and keep working hard for our dreams.
P17
What other admirable scientists do you know of
What can you learn from their stories
I know many admirable scientists, such as Einstein, Newton and Qian Xuesen. From their stories, I learn valuable lessons.
They are persistent, patient and creative. They keep studying and never give up when they meet difficulties.
They are also modest and willing to explore the unknown world.
I should learn from them, develop good learning habits and keep working hard to realise my dream.
“超越海拔六千米，抵达植物生长的最高极限，跋涉十六年，把论文写满高原。倒下的时候，双肩包里藏着你的初心、誓言和未了的心愿。你热爱的藏波罗花，不屑于雕梁画栋，只绽放在高山砾石之间 。”
