Tu Youyou has become the first Chinese woman to win a Nobel Prize, for her work in helping to create an anti-malaria(疟疾) medicine. The 84-year-old’s route to the honour has been anything but traditional. In China, she is being called the "three nos" winner: no medical degree, no doctorate, and she’s never worked overseas.

In 1967, malaria, a then deadly disease, spread by mosquitoes was decimating Chinese soldiers fighting Americans in the jungles of northern Vietnam. A secret research unit “Mission 523 “was formed to find a cure for the illness. Two years later, Tu Youyou was instructed to become the new head of “Mission 523”.

“Mission523” read ancient books carefully for a long time to find historical methods of fighting malaria. When she started her search for an anti-malarial drug, more than 240,000 compounds(化合物) around　 the　 world　 had　 already been　 tested,　 without any success.　 Finally,　 the　 team found　 a　 brief reference to one substance, sweet wormwood(青蒿), which had been used to treat malaria in China around 400 AD. The team took out one active compound in wormwood, and then tested it. But nothingwas effective until Tu Youyou returned to the original ancient text. After another careful reading, she changed the drug recipe one final time, heating the compound without allowing it to reach boiling point.

After the drug showed promising results in mice and monkeys, Tu Youyou volunteered to be the first human recipient of the new drug. “In any case, Tu Youyou is consistently praised for her drive and passion. One former colleague, Lianda Li, says Ms Tu is “unsociable and quite straightforward”, adding that “if she disagrees with something, she will say it.”

Another colleague, Fuming　 Liao, who has worked with Tu Youyou for　 more　 than 40　 years, describes her as a “tough and stubborn woman”. Stubborn enough to spend decades piecing together ancient texts, she applies them to modern scientific practices. The result has saved millions of lives.

1.According to Para. I, we can learn that　　　　　　　　　 .

A. Tu is the first woman to win a Nobel Prize

B. Tu has a medical degree

C. Tu’s road to success is not traditional

D. Tu discovered a cure for malaria

2.The underlined word “decimating” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by　　　　　　　　　 .

3.Which of the following statements is true?

A. Tu first invented the idea of using sweet wormwood as a cure.

B. Tu was inspired by medical textbooks published in northern Vietnam.

C. The compound needs to be heated to the boiling point to be effective.

D. Over 240,000 compounds were proved ineffective before Tu’s search.

4.Tu Youyou can be best described as a 　　　　　　　　　 person.

A. devoted and stubborn　　 B. straightforward and mean

C. considerate and tough　　 D. sociable and generous

Getting into university is hard enough at the best of times—but when your chosen institution is a work of fiction you’re really up against. And that’s why this young joker’s Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS) application to Hogwarts University was unsuccessful.

But the admissions services’ response to the young man is still funny.

The unnamed A-Level student wrote a handwritten note to UCAS asking for a place studying ‘Wandology’ at the Harry Potter school.

In the application, he was proud of his skills in “wearing a pointy hat” and “Watching Paul Daniels TV Specials”.

UCAS replied, “We regret to inform you that your application to the stated university cannot be processed at this time for the fact that it does not exist.

“After consultation with our mystic (神秘学的) advisors we have also determined that even if it did exist, the course ‘Wandology’ would be highly in demand and thus require at least two As and a B in any of the following subjects:

Advanced Spellcrafting

Mystimatics

Defence Against the Dark Arts

History of the Mysticism

Shaft Design

“Your handwritten grade sheet claiming top marks in ‘Waving a stick about’, ‘Wearing a pointy hat’ and ‘Watching Paul Daniels TV Specials’ sadly is not suitable for admission, however, by applying through clearing you may be suitable for a selection of Liberal Arts courses.”

“Or, you may wish to resubmit next year by tying your letter to an owl (猫头鹰) and hoping for the best.

“On behalf of UCAS I wish you every success.”

1.What do we know about the underlined word “Wandology” according to the passage?

A. It is a course that is highly in demand in universities.

B. It is a course that does not exist now in real life.

C. It is a course that can be applied by anyone.

D. It is a course that is forbidden by UCAS.

2.What can be inferred in the UCAS’s reply?

A. Applying for a university is the hardest thing even in the best times.

B. The young student will probably start to raise an owl for the next year.

C. UCAS may approve the young student’s application for Liberal Arts courses.

D. In the end the young student succeeded in applying for Hogwarts University.

3.Where may this passage be found?

A. In a magic magazine.　　 B. In a history book.

C. In a science fiction.　　　 D. In a newspaper.
