The water which came from the River Thames and had been
infected by waste.
2. Was cholera destroyed completely
No.
3. How can we prevent cholera
By drinking pure or boiled water, and eating clean food.
4. What contributions did John Snow make to science
He helped people know how to prevent cholera. He transformed the way
scientists study diseases by using maps and statistics.
5.What kind of person John Snow is as a great scientist
John Snow was rigorous(严谨的), determined, devoted, creative and innovative.
5. Write out the questions according to the answers
(Textbook P.3)
1. Q: What _________________________________
A: Snow thought that cholera was caused by germs in food or water.
2. Q: Why __________________________________________
A: Snow had the handle of the pump removed so that it could not be used.
3. Q: How _______________________________
A: The cholera threat was defeated thanks to the work of John Snow.
caused cholera according to Snow
did Snow have the handle of the pump removed
was the cholera threat defeated
6. In groups, discuss the following questions. (Textbook P.3)
1. What was the most important tool Snow used to defeat cholera What common medical tools, e.g. a microscope, didn't he use Why
He used maps and statistics to analyze where the deaths occurred. He didn't use a microscope, for example. He didn't test the water, nor did he draw blood or examine patients.
The reason he did not use medical equipment such as a microscope was because they did not exist during his time. Furthermore, understanding of germs and bacteria was still developing, and so he had to innovate methods himself based on the theory he believed.
2. How has John Snow’s work affected our daily lives
Snow's work has provided readily available clean water to drink, for example, as well as an emphasis on hygiene such as the need to wash hands after they become dirty. He also showed how to prevent cholera epidemics, and transformed the way scientists study diseases, which has allowed for more protection from once common diseases such as cholera.
Now please fill in the blanks and retell the text.
Cholera _________ be one of the most feared diseases in the world. In the early 19th century, an outbreak of cholera hit Europe, _______ (cause) millions of deaths. Seeing this, John Snow became _________(frustrate) because no one knew how to prevent or treat cholera. At that time, doctors had two ________(theory) to explain how cholera spread. One was that bad air caused the disease and another was that cholera was caused by an _______ (infect)from germs in food or water. John discovered that in two particular street _____ cholera outbreak was ____ severe that over 500 people died in ten days. Through his serious investigation, he found it was the pump water in Broad Street _______ resulted in the disease. __________, he had the handle of the pump removed . It turned out that the water from the pump _______________ (infect) by waste. Through Snow's tireless efforts, water companies began to sell clean water, and the threat of cholera around the world saw a substantial decrease. Snow transformed the way scientists study diseases. For this reason, he __________(consider) the father of modern epidemiology.
