1 1. 必修五 Unit 1 JOHN SNOW DEFEATS “ KING CHOLERA ”约翰· 斯诺击败“霍乱王” John Snow was a famous doctor in London - so expert, indeed, that he attended Queen Victoria as her personal physician. 约翰· 斯诺是伦敦一位著名的医生——他的确医术精湛,因而成为照料维多利亚女王的私人医生。 But he became inspired when he thought about helping ordinary people exposed to cholera. 但他一想到要帮助那些得了霍乱的普通百姓时,他就感到很振奋。 This was the deadly disease of its day. 霍乱在当时是最致命的疾病, Neither its cause nor its cure was understood. 人们既不知道它的病源, 也不了解它的治疗方法。 So many thousands of terrified people died every time there was an outbreak. 每次霍乱暴发时, 就有大批惊恐的老百姓死去。 John Snow wanted to face the challenge and solve this problem. 约翰· 斯诺想面对这个挑战, 解决这个问题。 He knew that cholera would never be controlled until its cause was found. 他知道,在找到病源之前,霍乱疫情是无法控制的。 He became interested in two theories that possibly explained how cholera killed people. 斯诺对霍乱致人死地的两种推测都很感兴趣。 The first suggested that cholera multiplied in the air.
