Tu Youyou, an 84-year-old scientist, became the first female (女性)Chinese to win a Nobel Prize in science on Oct,5. She shared the 2015 Nobel Prize for medicine because of the new medicine for malaria(瘧疾). Tu started the research in the 1970s that made her find artemisinin(青蒿素), a kind of medicine that has saved many people’s lives. It comes from Chinese traditional medicine and now is a good way to treat malaria.

When the news came that Tu was given the prize, there were cheers as well as questions. Some said that her achievement(成就) was the result of lots of Chinese scientists working together. So it is unfair to give the prize only to Tu.

However, Tu was awarded for “three firsts”. She was the first to bring artemisinin to her team, the first to extract(提取) artemisinin that can stop malaria, and the first to finish the experiment.

Giving prizes to scientists with great ideas is the best way to keep national innovation(創(chuàng)新).

1.What kind of prize did Tu Youyou win at the Nobel Prize ceremony?

A. peace B. physics

C. medicine D. literature（文學(xué)）

2.What kind of illness can artemisinin be used to treat?

A. cold B. flu C. malaria D. cancer

3.Why did someone say it was unfair to give the prize only to Tu Youyou?

A. because it was many scientists’ hard work together.

B. because Tu was a woman

C. because malaria was not a serious illness

D. because artemisinin comes from Chinese medicine.

4.For what did Tu get the prize?

A. for her kindness B. for the great ideas

C. for her old age D. for her teamwork

Linda and David have travelled by air from London to Sydney, Australia. Linda has promised（答應(yīng)）her mother that she will ring her to let her know that they arrived safely. This is something she had done ever since she was a child. David thinks it is not a good idea to ring so far, to spend too much, and to say so little.

But Linda promised to ring. "However," she says, "‘it doesn’t cost much when you just think that it’s the other side of the world. It’s only six pence per second (每秒六便士)." "If you’re on that telephone for less than one minute, I’ll eat my hat, David says, "And one minute’s nearly four pounds(鎊). " "That’s no more than you’d pay for a new hat," Linda answers.

She has asked the man at the hotel desk to get her the number. The telephone rings. Linda picks it up. "Hello, Mum. Is that you ?" She says. "Six pence per second," David told her.

“Hello, love. " It is Mrs Lee, Linda’s mother, speaking from London. "I can hear you very clearly just like you are in the next room. It‘s a better line than when you called me from your office.

"Yes, all right," says Mrs Lee," But you will write, won‘t you, as you did when you were at work …" Once again, Mrs Lee talks about the past. and there is no stopping her. "Four pounds fifty, ’says David. At last, Linda cuts her mother short, promises to write, and rings off.
