新人数·选修二 Unit I 背诵版(一) Elaine英语 Elaine英语 Cholera is an infectious disease caused by germs.People who are infected with this disease will suffer from severe diarrhoea, dehydration and even death.As a young doctor,John Snow felt a little frustrated at first,but he was determined to defeat "King Cholera"once and for all.There were then two contradictory theories to explain how cholera spread. Snow subscribed to the correct theory that cholera was caused by an infection from germs in food or water.But Snow needed proof and findings.It happened that cholera broke out in London in 1854,and Snow began to investigate.He discovered that there were multiple deaths in some households near the water pump in Broad Street.This showed there was a link between the cases of cholera and the water.Snow suspected that the water pump was to blame,so he had the handle of the water pump removed.Thanks to Snow's intervention,people began to drink pure water instead of raw water.Thus,there was a substantial decrease in the threat of cholera.Furthermore,in his use of maps and statistics,Snow transformed the way scientists study diseases.His thinking and concept on disease were quite novel at that time.Therefore,Snow is considered the father of modern epidemiology.
