21、4 October 1971,after 190 failures,she succeeded in making qinghao extract that could treat malaria in mice.屠呦呦接受的教育很快被证明非常有用。20世纪60年代，许多人死于疟疾，于是1969年屠呦呦担任了一个旨在找到疟疾疗法的小组组长。她收集了2,000多种治疗疟疾的中药配方，并从不同的草药中获取了数百种提取物。当这些未能取得任何有希望的效果时，屠呦呦就再次查阅中医典籍。在一本1600多年前的典籍中，关于用冷水制备青蒿提取物的记载给了屠呦呦启发，她重新设计了试验，并尝试在低温下对这种草药进
22、行提取，以不损害其有效成。1971年10月4日，在历经190次失败之后，她成功制备出可以治疗老鼠疟疾的青蒿提取物。(Para.3-5)Para.4:However,it was hard to produce enough qinghao extract for large trials because research resources were limited.Tu and her team managed to find solutions to the problem.When there was no research equipment,they had to extract h
