Reading and Thinking
Try to become not a man of success, but try rather to become a man of value.
——Albert Einstein

Who is the woman in the photo
What is happening in the photo
What’s the reaction of people present when this is happening why
Everyone present is standing up to show respect and admiration to her.
She is Tu Youyou.
She is being awarded the Nobel Prize.
Let’s read the passage (P2-3) to know more about Tu Youyou.
Before you read, describe these questions in groups.
(1) What kind of person makes great discoveries
(2) Which is more important for making a great discovery, talent or effort
Most great discoverers are brilliant and hard-working. Many are perfectionists who are unwilling to accept anything but the best.
I think both talent and effort are important for making discoveries. If a person doesn't have some talent，it is possible that even though he or she works hard， it will be difficult to succeed. On the other hand， people—even those with great talent—rarely achieve anything without putting in efforts.
