三、阅读理解(每题2分,共20分)
A
Think of somebody you really admire. You will probably find that their success didn’t come easily. As “Father of Hybrid Rice”,Yuan Longping got over great difficulties and spent his whole life working to reduce world hunger and helping to feed the country with the largest population.
Wu Mengchao, the “Father of Chinese Hepatobiliary Surgery(肝胆外科)”, focused on saving people’s lives nearly eighty years. He performed more than 16000 operations during his life. Holding the surgeon’s knife for such a long time deformed his fingers. Wu once said, “It would be my greatest happiness if I could work at the operating table until my dying day.”
In 1969, in order to solve the problem of treating malaria(疟疾)Tu Youyou, a pharmacologist(药学家), took on the job as head of a research team. She and her teammates performed different kinds of experiments . However , the results were disappointing. Instead of giving up, they kept trying. Finally, in 1972, they made it! In 2015, at the age of 85, she received a Nobel Prize.
Thomas Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, believed that every failure was a step towards success. He once said, “If I find 10,000 ways something won’t work, I haven’t failed. I am not discouraged, because every wrong try is another step forward.”
Sometimes, their success was a surprise, even to themselves. The famous scientist Alexander Fleming said “When I woke up just after daybreak on 28th September, 1928, I certainly didn’t plan to revolutionise(变革)all medicine by discovering the world’s first antibiotic(抗生素). But I guess that was exactly what I did.”
Some people only became successful after their deaths. Not like Pablo Picasso who became famous and very rich during his lifetime, the artist Vincent Van Gogh only sold one painting all through his life and that was to a friend. But he kept painting and he painted more than 2,000 artworks in the following ten years. Now his paintings are very popular and they sell for millions of pounds.
One thing all these people have in common is sticking to their goals no matter what.
A
Pablo Picasso became famous after his death
B
Vincent Van Gogh painted 2001 artworks in his life
C
it took Tu Youyou’s team about 3 years to reach their goal
D
Thomas Edison tried 10, 000 ways before he invented the light bulb
正确答案 :C
解析
根据第三段,为了解决疟疾的问题,药理学家屠呦呦,承担了一个研究小组负责人的工作。她和她的队友进行了不同类型的实验。然而,结果令人失望。他们没有放弃,而是继续努力。终于,在1972年,他们成功了!可知屠哟哟和她的队友大约花了三年才实现目标。故本题答案为C。
