一株小草铸就济世传奇。请阅读下面短文，根据短文内容从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Sweet wormwood（青蒿） is a common plant in China. Tu Youyou, a pioneering scientist in the field of
medicine, was born in Ningbo in 1930. She discovered its special power, which has since saved millions of lives.
Malaria（疟疾） is a serious and sometimes deadly disease that has been known to humans for thousands of years. In 1969, Tu was chosen as the
leader of a research program to find a cure for malaria. She studied pharmacy（药学） in college, and traditional Chinese medicine once helped treat her illness when she was young. This experience led her to experiment with natural Chinese treatments（疗法）. She and her team talked to doctors of traditional Chinese medicine and read ancient texts. In three months, they found 2,000 treatments and narrowed them down to 380.
Tu and her team started testing these treatments on animals with malaria. They tried and tried, but made little progress. In 1971, after failing 190 times, Tu finally found qinghaosu, or artemisinin, in sweet wormwood. Then, she and her team kept improving the medicine. She even took the risk of testing it on herself to make sure it was safe for people. Finally, they succeeded.
In the early 2000s, the World Health Organization（WHO） advised using artemisinin as a treatment for malaria. Tu called it a true gift from traditional Chinese medicine.
Tu never regretted giving her whole life to her research. On 5 October 2015, Tu was awarded the Nobel Prize
together with two other scientists because of her great achievements. “I feel more rewarded when I see so many patients cured,” she said.

本题为英语阅读理解题，需结合原文内容逐一分析每道小题：
1. 第1题是事件排序题，需定位原文中屠呦呦相关事件的先后顺序：首先原文提到1969年她被选为疟疾研究项目的领导者（对应事件d）；之后她和团队从2000种疗法中筛选出380种（对应事件c）；接着1971年失败190次后发现青蒿素（对应事件a）；最后她亲自测试药物确保安全（对应事件b），因此顺序为d-c-a-b，选D。
2. 第2题是句意理解题，原文最后一句意为“看到很多病人被治愈时我更有回报”，说明她更看重救人而非奖项，对应选项A。
3. 第3题是文章出处题，短文围绕屠呦呦研究治疗疟疾的药物展开，属于健康医疗相关内容，对应报纸的健康板块，选C。
【解析】
1. 第1题：根据原文第二段“In 1969, Tu was chosen as the leader of a research program to find a cure for malaria”对应事件d；“they found 2,000 treatments and narrowed them down to 380”对应事件c；第三段“In 1971, after failing 190 times, Tu finally found qinghaosu”对应事件a；“She even took the risk of testing it on herself”对应事件b，故顺序为d-c-a-b，答案为D。
2. 第2题：原文最后一句强调看到病人被治愈更有回报，说明她重视救人胜过奖项，A选项符合；B选项原文未提及是否预料诺奖，C选项未体现两者都重要，D选项未说明成功主要因病人，故答案为A。
3. 第3题：短文内容为屠呦呦研究治疗疟疾的药物，属于健康医疗范畴，对应报纸的Health板块，故答案为C。
【答案】
1. D 2. A 3. C
