Bamboo withered from the leaves, people aged from the feet;
running every day, pharmacies need not be found.
竹从叶上枯,人从脚上老;天天跑步走,药铺不用找。

主题语境——人与社会。医学对人们的健康发挥着重要作用,我们要了解中外医学发展的现状和趋势,增强健康安全意识,积极弘扬传统中医药文化。
In 1967,the Chinese government formed a team of scientists with the objective of① discovering a new treatment for malaria②,and Tu Youyou was among the first researchers chosen.In the beginning,Tu Youyou went to Hainan,where malaria was more common,to study malaria patients.In 1969,she became the head of the project in Beijing,and decided to review ancient Chinese medical texts to find traditional botanical treatments for the disease.Her team examined over 2,000 old medical texts,and evaluated 280,000 plants for their medical properties.From their research,
they discovered and tested 380 distinct ancient Chinese medical treatments that showed promise in the fight against malaria.
One medical text from the fourth century suggested using the extract from sweet wormwood③ to treat a fever.Tu's team tested a collection of dried wormwood leaves but found no effect.They then tried boiling fresh wormwood,and using the liquid obtained from this to treat malaria,but this did not work either.Their project got stuck④.However,Tu Youyou would not acknowledge defeat⑤.She analysed the medical texts again,and
by chance,she found one sentence suggesting a different way to treat the wormwood.She concluded that boiling the sweet wormwood apparently destroyed its medical properties.Using a lower temperature to draw out the extract,she found a substance that worked.
