广西南宁江南区2024-2025学年九年级上学期10月新课标学科素养检测英语试卷
Malaria(疟疾) has been a deadly problem for humans since ancient times. Countless people have died from the illness. Thankfully, Chinese scientist Tu Youyou found a useful medicine called qinghaosu.
In 1969, Tu became the director of a national project to develop a medicine against malaria. Her team took a special way.▲After reading more than 2,000 old treatments, Tu and her team collected over 600 plants and listed almost 380 possible treatments for malaria. One treatment, which is 1,600 years old, uses sweet wormwood. Tu found it useful and tried to extract(提取) the qinghaosu from it in order to makea medicine. The extraction failed at first, so Tu returned to the classical books again and finally found a way. She used a low- temperature way to extract the qinghaosu and finally succeeded in 1972.
Next, Tu and her team did lots of tests with qinghaosu in fighting against malaria. After her team showed that qinghaosu could treat malaria in mice and monkeys, Tu and two of her team members offered to test the medicine on themselves before testing on human patients. It turned out that qinghaosu was safe and all patients in the test became well. Gradually, the World Health Organization (WHO) advised people to use qinghaosu as the first- line treatment for malaria. It saved millions of lives around the world.
In 2015, when Tu won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, she didn't accept all of the honor. Instead, she praised her team members and Chinese traditional medicine. She once said," Every scientist dreams of doing something that can help the world."
Hopes, ambitions(抱负) dreams. How many of your will you achieve? When you look back at your life in the future, will you have good memories of all the things that you did? Or will you regret all the things that you didn't do?

Set a time limit(限定) For example, I would like to be fitter in Step 1 now becomes I will be fit enough to join a half-marathon race by the end of August. |
Step 3: {#blank#}3{#/blank#}Now that you've made your choice, what are you actually going to do to achieve your goal?
