两个版本,一个质朴平淡,实事求是地叙述了青蒿素的发现,另一个则极尽华丽辞藻,不仅讲到了父亲为什么给她取这个名字,还有诗句云:“我喜欢宁静,蒿叶一样的宁静。我追求淡泊,蒿花一样的淡泊。我向往正直,蒿茎一样的正直。”猜猜哪个才是真的?
Well, sweet wormwood is the plant from which Tu and her fellow scientists successfully extracted artemisinin. Most readers were so touched by the literary version they were left in tears.
的确,青蒿素正是由屠呦呦女士和她的同事们一起从青蒿中提取出来的。所以很多读者都被这篇“文艺版致辞”感动得潸然泪下。
They just forgot that Tu is not a woman of letters, but one of science. It was totally made up by someone who obviously has great literary talent, but could not fathom the inner life of a scientist.
他们忘了,屠呦呦女士不是作家,而是科学家。显然,“文艺版致辞”从头到尾都是由某位颇具文学天赋的人炮制的,只可惜他根本不了解一位科学家的内心世界。
I have not met a great many scientists, Chinese or foreign, but the ones I talked to invariably impressed me as no-nonsense and would not cloak themselves in purple prose.
我接触的国内外科学家都不多,但与我交谈过的科学家都给我留下了一个深刻的印象:他们严肃认真,用词朴素。
